Nowhere to Run. Nowhere, #2

?????????????? ???????? ???? ?????????????, ????? ???????? ????????? ???????????? ???????? ???? ???? ??????????????????... Life has taught me that love is an illusion. It's built to create a false sense of security. The second you allow yourself to succumb to it, it'll destroy you and strip you of everything you've ever wanted. That's why I don't let my guard down and why I don't allow myself to trust easily.
Especially when my ex-husband's best friend shows up in the small town I've been hiding in for years. He insists that he's there to protect me, but the closer he gets, the more secrets I uncover. My instinct is to keep my walls up and not let him in. But Dom is relentless in showing his love for me, and soon, those walls are crumbling faster than I can stop them. As my dangerous past catches up with us, I realize there is nothing I won't do to protect my new life and the people who have become my family.
Now, with everything on the line, I'm forced to make high-stakes bets. I never went looking for love, but it found me anyway. Now that it's within reach, I have to decide if the future I've always dreamed of is worth the ultimate risk.
