It had been years...

Fallon Wayland has been in love with her best friends brother since she was in high school, maybe longer.  She kissed him on her 18th birthday and never saw him alone again.  What is a girl to think?

Shane Roarke is upset that Fallon did not feel that she could call on him when she needed help.  Being just a man, he did not know what his ignoring her did.  He had no idea that every birthday she has ever had has been a disaster.

Her current birthday being the worst, of course.  She has witnessed a murder.  Been nearly killed, and then losing her job?  Perfect.  Now she has Shane saying he will protect her from harm.  Who is going to protect her heart from him?

Shane has wanted Fallon since that ill fated kiss.  He knows if he does not avoid her they will come together and combust.  Sparks are nothing compared to what happened when they kissed!

Fallon needs saving from herself, and from the man who wants her dead.  Is Shane the right man to show her that past problems can be kept there?  Or will he damage what good she has earned up to now?

Such a great book with incredible suspense!  I loved the characters, banter, secy bits and all.  This was an all around good read.  I give this story 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP!
