TWO THINGS HAPPENED THAT DAY TO CHANGE KIRA CORNWALL'S LIFE
At her cousin's wedding, while glancing past the eligible men of Charleston vying for her attention, she saw Sean Rouger -- and felt a frightening yearning she had never known before.

But that same day Kira learned of her beloved father's mysterious death -- and that Haven, her cherished home, was to be inherited by her ruthless Uncle James.

Kira was certain the will had been falsified, but who could she turn to for help? Surely not Sean Rouger. There was something dangerous about him. Wherever he went, violence and mayhem seemed to follow. But she could not deny he was her only hope -- any more than she could deny he had become her sole desire.
