Ciaran

Loralei Crawford is focused on running her boutique and moving on with her life after having her heart broken. Her plans are derailed when she becomes the target of unscrupulous criminals looking to get even with her brother. There's only one man who can help her, only one man who will do whatever it takes to keep her safe... The same man who walked out on her and broke her heart.
Ciaran Darcy has more than his share of baggage. He came to Kentucky to connect with the family he has never known. Spurned by his father, his pride won't let him reach out to his half siblings... Siblings who grew up in the same silver spoon set as Loralei. He knows he'll never be good enough for her, but after letting her go once, he doesn't care. She's his and he's holding on. He just has to keep them both alive long enough to convince her of that.
