Annabelle Waters
Running was my only option.
Now I’m hiding out in a small-town orchard—baking pies by day, lying through my teeth by night.
The man I was forced to marry is hunting me down, and the only person who makes me feel safe is the one I never stopped loving.
Derek Fields is everything I shouldn’t want—gruff, grieving, and too good for the mess I’ve made. But when my past comes knocking, he offers me a way out: marry him, trust him… and finally stop running.
It’s supposed to be temporary. Just protection.
But every stolen kiss and whispered promise feels like forever.

Annabelle was always mine. Even when she left without saying goodbye.
Now she’s back—bruised, guarded, hiding something.
She thinks I don’t notice the fear in her eyes when she thinks I’m not looking.
But I see it. And I’d burn this whole damn town down before I let anyone hurt her again.
I need her to marry me—for real. To keep the land.
But this isn’t just a favor anymore.
Because the truth is, I never stopped loving her.
And I won’t lose her again.
Not when the biggest lie of all could destroy everything we’ve rebuilt.

O autorovi
USA Today Bestselling Author Lacey Silks crafts riveting romantic suspense filled with heat, spice, and pulse-pounding tension. Many of her endearing characters are inspired by her own life, and her loved ones often find themselves playfully woven into her tales. Her two children and her dog, Kygo, keep her days lively with homework queries and affectionate slobbery kisses (courtesy of Kygo, of course).
Outside of penning intense love stories, Lacey is an avid camper and skier. Naturally an early riser, she often finds herself reaching for coffee over water, crediting her billionaire heroes for her packed schedule.
Lacey's characters, replete with flaws and quirks, evoke laughter, sass, and emotion on every page. She cheekily measures men by their foot size, has a penchant for sultry lingerie, and harbors dreams of exploring the nation in a motorhome.
