Protecting You — Amanda Siegrist

He wanted to hate her. He just might fall in love instead. 

Zane McCord might not say it often, but he loves his brothers no matter what, even when he's acting like a jerk and he knows it. When his brother Jimmy dies with tension hanging between them, he turns all his hatred to the woman who deserves it--Ava Rainer, the one responsible for his death. He refuses to like her. He won't help her. He wants her nowhere near him. Except she's suddenly on his farm and sneaking her way into his heart with her own pain. The guilt is eating him alive, but maybe...just maybe...they can heal together.
