She's a runaway country music star. He's the grumpy protector who can't walk away.

Ruby Knight traded sold-out arenas for the quiet charm of Friendship, Maine, desperate to escape the pressure, the noise, and the life that never felt like hers. She finds peace in anonymity... until Dalton Knight walks in.

Dalton wants nothing more than a quiet life after years of military service. But when he's asked to bring Ruby back to the world she left behind, everything changes.

She's sunshine to his storm.
Brave where he's guarded.
Hope where he's hardened.

The more time they spend together, the more impossible it becomes for Dalton to walk away. But when Ruby's past closes in and danger follows them home, protecting her means more than keeping her safe -- it means risking his heart.

And Ruby has to decide if she'll run again... or finally stay and fight for the man who sees the real her.

A steamy, emotional grumpy-sunshine romance with celebrity drama, heartfelt healing, and a protector hero worth falling for.
