Can’t Take My Eyes Off You
Wishing for a Hero - BOOK 3
Someone wants her scared. Her new police chief intends to find out who before the threats turn deadly.
Dr. Miranda Campbell refuses to let a few slashed tires disrupt the life she's built in Wishful. She loves her medical practice, her small Southern town, and the independence she's fought hard to reclaim. But when petty vandalism escalates into increasingly dangerous threats, even stubbornly self-reliant Miranda has to admit she needs help.
Former U.S. Marshal Ethan Greer came to Wishful looking for a quieter life. Protecting the town's sharp-tongued doctor wasn't supposed to include moving in with her. But as the danger closes in, keeping Miranda safe means keeping her close.
Forced proximity ignites an attraction neither can ignore. But with an unknown assailant escalating the attacks, Ethan has to find who's targeting Miranda before they get close enough to finish what they started.
A forced-proximity romantic suspense featuring a fiercely independent doctor, a protective police chief, and danger far too close to home.
