Zane Walker My family will tell you that I've got a quick temper. They weren't wrong. Not only will I cop to the hair-trigger. It's likely what spurred the brutal attack that nearly took my life. But it was during those months I spent in the hospital that I came to the realization that I'd been given a second chance and it was high time I started moving forward, rather than looking back. Now that I'm out of the hospital, there's only one thing I need to do. If you're thinking vengeance is at the top of my priority list, you're not too far off. It's on the list, but it's not my number one. That spot belongs to Vanessa Carmichael. From our first kiss, I knew V was the one. I also know convincing her to take a chance on me wasn't going to be easy. She is stubborn and her heart is guarded like Fort Knox. But I'm not the sort to give up and I don't plan to start now. When V and I get together, smoke detectors go haywire, but when we add my best friend, Beau, to the equation, extra fire extinguishers are needed. Although we're good at burning up the sheets, I want more. In fact, I want it all. The question is: can I get V to open her heart and let me in? Or will I have to indulge her misguided efforts to protect me and let her walk away? Publisher note: This title has been re-edited into first-person POV with a new cover.
