All That I Am — Rachel Brookes

A kickass home décor boutique â€" tick
A sassy mouth and absolutely no filter â€" tick
A wall so strong no man could ever tear it down - tick, tick, tick!

Or so I thought.

Until I meet Detective Ben Hunt, the owner of exquisite blue eyes, a god-like physique and a seductive smirk that makes me weak at the knees. He charges into my life like a force of nature. No matter how hard I try to keep the walls up around my heart, he's made it his mission to shatter them. I have no chance of resisting him, but I would make sure I won this tug of war.

Which was what I wanted.

Right? When did the idea of losing myself to him start to sound so good?

I wish Ben was the only battle I faced. There's a reason this small town needs a good detective. One way or another I'm going to have to brace for impact because no wall I build can stop the new threat thundering toward Monroe.

After all, secrets only stay a secret for so long around here.
