The Reckoning
She ran to escape a stalker. He walked away from a career chasing danger. The only person who can keep her safe… is the one she’s afraid to trust.
Fleeing a stalker who turned her life upside down, Katrina Bowen heads south to a sleepy coastal town, hoping to disappear. She cuts ties with her old life, including social media, and tries to blend in with distant relatives she barely knows. Falling for someone new is the last thing on her mind—especially when trust could cost her everything.
Benjamin “Ben” Wyatt left law enforcement to escape the ghosts of a case that went wrong. Now he finds peace in running his landscaping business and keeping his past buried. But when he meets Katrina, he recognizes the fear she tries to hide. She’s in danger—real danger—and no matter how much he tries to resist getting involved, his instincts and his heart won’t let him walk away.

The Reckoning
Very good mystery with a slow romance. She is
running from trouble, he is hiding from failure. His attraction to her is immediate but he is so disciplined that he tries not to allow romantic feelings to touch him. The two will have to work together to be rid of the trouble she is running from and may answer some if his unspoken fears.
