Brianna Chapman is an elementary teacher who witnessed her parents murdered in an arson attempt meant for her. Years later, the crime is still unsolved and she still appears to be a target. Nathan Reed is a wealthy woodworking artists who moves in next door with his young sons. The attraction is immediate and as the threats to Brianna escalate, Nathan seeks to protect her.

I have mixed feelings about this book. As a romance I loved it. Brianna and Nathan are both likable characters. There's good chemistry and the relationship really develops over time. However, I didn't like the non-romance aspects of the plot. As a teacher, I found the unprofessional manner in which Brianna's co-workers were portrayed as almost offensive. Also, once the culprit was revealed, I just didn't think enough background was given for the motive to be believable. So, I would rate it a 4.5 for romance, but 2.5 for plot.
