Harper Lockwyn learned early that safety was fragile. At twelve, it was stolen from her by a monster named Jonathan. What he left behind was a body that no longer felt like her own—where even the smallest touch sent her spiraling, breathless, fighting ghosts no one else could see. At eighteen, she thought she could trust Jake. He was family. When that trust shattered, it was his father—Dante Mercer—who stepped in. Shielded her. Grounded her. Became the only person who could touch her without sending her into a breakdown. Then Harper disappeared from his life. Eight years later, Dante Mercer is the formidable head coach of the New York Reapers, navigating a very public, very messy divorce—and trying to forget the girl he once swore to protect. Until New Year’s Eve brings her back. Harper is twenty-six now. Stronger. Still guarded. Dante is forty-six. Steady. Scarred. And suddenly unable to ignore the sparks igniting between them. It’s forbidden. Complicated. Dangerous in all the wrong ways. And Harper is terrified—not because she doesn’t want him… But because her body already trusts him.

Miriam: I liked the way the plot was set up and then the relationship progressed. Some may not like the discretion but it all led up to a very happy ending with a bit of suspense leading up to it. Definitely a cliffhanger. Waiting for a follow-up.

Farial-Jap-Girl: なんて素敵で、予想もしなかった読書体験なんでしょう! これは間違いなく、ありきたりな恋愛小説ではありません。むしろ、そうじゃないことに感謝したいくらいです。登場人物たちがとてもリアルに感じられるんです。欠点があって、複雑で、情熱的で、人間らしい「白か黒かでは割り切れない」魅力的なグレーの部分に満ちています。怒りや支配、愛、そして怒りの赤い霧に飲み込まれそうになったときに、別の道を選ぶ可能性を描いているところも、とても好きでした。でも正直、一番の驚きは、この本がとにかく楽しく読めたこと! 作者はヒロインの声を見事に描き出していて、私はすっかり別の時代、別の場所へ連れ去られたような気分になりました...
