Franklin Smith:
As a former detective I've seen the worst of people. All I want now is a safe, quiet place to live with no excitement. But the woman who owns the shop next door, Cassidy, brings trouble right to me.
Not on purpose. Her ex is stalking her, begging for a second chance. She's refused dozens of times but he won't listen. Until I get involved. I don't want to but there's no way that I'll let any man bully a woman. Especially the tiny little baker that's almost as sweet as her baked goods.
Cassidy Light:
I've seen the big, gentle, grumpy man next door many times. He fascinates me. A handsome, somber man who avoids talking to his neighbors at all costs, he runs the bookstore next door to me.
I love a good book and often stop on my way home to get a new book. Maybe even sneak a peek of the husky giant next door.
Which is how he gets involved in my disaster of a love life. In no time at all, he manages to become an essential part of my everyday life. He keeps my body safe but will he keep my heart safe as well when I can't help but give it to the huge protector or a man.
