Falling for a Stranger (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798244279023)

The Scottish Highlands were supposed to be the land of new opportunity for Deacon Holt. He was looking for ethical investments and a life finally free of the past. But among the crumbling ruins of a castle overlooking Loch Ness, the past refuses to stay buried. Memories of the woman he lost begin to rise with haunting clarity, blurring the line between grief and reality. What Deacon finds there isn't the reunion he imagined, but the closure he never knew he needed.
Beathan believed she was finally free until a violent knock shattered her fragile sense of safety. Cisco, the man who ruled her life through fear and pain, has found her again. Forced to choose between submission and survival, Beathan runs into the night with nothing but bruises, courage, and one last hope to finally escape.
Two days later, she meets Deacon down on his knees in the middle of a decaying tower and everything changes.
Drawn together by an undeniable connection, Beathan dares to believe she can love again, even as danger tightens its grip and old wounds resurface. But when accusations fly and Deacon's carefully buried past is dragged into the light, trust becomes the most dangerous gamble of all. With an enemy still hunting them and secrets threatening to tear them apart, Beathan must decide if love can survive the truth or if the man she's falling for is just another betrayal waiting to happen.
Haunting, atmospheric, and emotionally charged, this is a story of love born in chaos, trust under fire, and the quiet, transformative power of acceptance.
