This is a rural romantic suspense set in the beautiful New Zealand and it was a great story, filled with danger and moving emotions that will bring two well deserving people together and help two children who have been through so much feel whole again and part of a family, make yourself comfortable for this one it travels a bit slowly at first then it moves with a punch as danger gets closer and secrets are revealed.

Ex -undercover cop Luke Galloway has spent a lifetime trying very hard to ignore emotion, he lost his parents when he was young and his sister Jenn brought him up and he was not an easy kid, fast forward to now and Luke is now caring for his niece and Nephew after his precious sister Jenn and her husband have been killed in a car accident and left their children fourteen year old Rose and eleven year old Otto with serious injuries. Luke hires physiotherapist Brooke Galbraith to help with their care, and here starts a sensual spark that leads to a lot of emotion and feelings entering Luke’s Life.

Brooke Galbraith has returned to her home town to help her father who has had a stroke it has been a while since she has been home after the dramas and scandals that had her leave, life has been hard for Brooke and love is the last thing she is looking for, but she cannot deny the spark that ignites her when she meets Luke and the caring that she has for his niece and nephew, there are a lot of fears that Brooke needs to overcome to make for a bright and happy future and maybe Luke and the kids can do that.

Luke can be a bit hard and bitter at times especially at the start of this story but he really has been through so much and he is determined to care and love these kids that mean so much to him and Brooke is just the person to help him. A lot comes out in this story about both of their pasts and it cathartic for both of them especially when they find out who is behind the danger that has appeared and who is determined to keep the kids from opening up about what they know. I really enjoyed this story and do recommend it to anyone who loves a story that is sensual and has danger lurking around the corner. Thank you MS Wine.

4/5 stars for a great story
