Winnie has feelings for Kilraven and senses his grief and pain; she wants to help him. Winnie is a 911 Dispatcher so she works with Kilraven time to time and is really hurt when he gives her a cold shoulder.
But when Kilraven's murder investigation brings forth details of Winnie's family that may help him with his case, she helps him. But along the way, they find love and Winnie helps Kilraven face his demons of the past, to finally come to terms that his family is gone.
This is the first Diana Palmer book that I've read and I know she has written a lot of books! I determined that the characters in this story appeared in previous works as does a few secondary characters, so Diana Palmer fans will be excited! However, the story does stand alone. It's a heart-wrenching story of loss, love, and suspense. Ms. Palmer is a master storyteller and it shines through with her writing. A top-notch romance that will have you crying, laughing and cheering. Simply Wonderful!
