The Rock

Jake Rockwell knows he’s stuck in second gear, tending bar in Rocky Peak and never getting serious. He even knows why—he’s still haunted by the death of his mother. Maybe if he tracks down the person responsible—and gets some justice—he can find peace. Although “peace” isn’t the first word that comes to mind around gorgeous Olivia James, his new private investigator. It’s been a long, hard-fought battle to go from naïve trophy wife to fiercely independent PI, but Olivia has done it. She now offers her services only to women in need…but she’s made an exception for a friend. Which might possibly be the biggest mistake of her life. Jake is as maddening as he is charming…and thoughtful…and insanely hot. And there’s that sizzling connection… The more secrets they expose, the deeper down the rabbit hole they tumble, the more Jake falls for the brave investigator. As the rock of his family, of his entire town, Jake is used to holding everything together. But the final astounding revelation he and Olivia are about to uncover could blow his entire world apart—permanently.
