Zara Brooks needs a fresh start.
Consumed with insecurity and damaged by betrayal, Zara leaves her old life and all the heartache it holds behind her.
Or so she thinks…
Zara is deeply wounded and every choice she makes in her new hometown is evidence of that pain.
Pierce Reynolds has lived in Windsor all his life and loves the community. When multiple businesses in town are set ablaze faster than the police department can investigate, Pierce volunteers to be the lead investigator on the case.
Pierce’s investigation lands him at Zara’s front door and he’s immediately taken with her. While Zara can’t deny that he’s an attractive and well-respected man, she refuses to get involved.
Once tragedy strikes, leaving Zara vulnerable, Pierce learns there’s a lot of hurt hiding beneath her tough exterior and handles her with care. Shocked by the depth of Pierce’s kindness, Zara finds her heart yearns for more.
But Zara treads cautiously.
Because she knows how easy it is to get burned.

This book, my gosh, where do I begin? I loved it. Zara and Pierce make a perfect couple, exactly what the other needs. Zara's insecurity got a little annoying but right at the point she started to get annoying she realized her self worth and started working on it. Pierce is perfect. The main part of the book is the romance and the building of their relationship and Zara's self esteem issue and the root of that with little dashes of the mystery, but the last twenty percent of the book is mainly solving the ongoing crime as well as introducing the next couple.
Overall, I love A.K.'s writing. First person isn't something I particularly go out and look for in a book, but alternating first person gives me the insight I need to enjoy the story, I get both sides of the story. It starts off mainly as Zara's POV but as the book goes on you get more and more of Pierce. I really did enjoy the narration, and the setting, Love Winsor. It's a very emotional book that deals with emotional abuse and what it does to a person and how hard it is to repair the damage done.
