Twilight Tides - Samantha Young

When I escaped to a Scottish island, I never expected I'd agree to a marriage of convenience with rugged local businessman and single dad, Murray Shaw.

That was before my dangerous ex started threatening me and my visa. The thought of being kicked out of Scotland, leaving behind my friends and the safety I've found here, is unthinkable. I'm determined to solve the problem myself. Everyone knows Murray is battling his ex-wife for control of his company and the only way to stop her is to remarry. So I propose a marriage deal that'll solve both our issues. The fact that I've been attracted to the handsome, gentle giant of a Scot since we met is something I'll just have to ignore if I want to remain in Scotland.

But marriage to Murray is proving to be complicated. Living under the same roof is a far bigger temptation than I anticipated. Beneath Murray's reserve is a passionate nature that stokes the fires of my own. Soon we're fighting a searing attraction and an intense emotional connection that's as thrilling as it is terrifying. After my last disastrous relationship, I don't trust myself enough to admit there's far more than physical desire between us.

Yet when Murray finds himself caught in the grasp of a criminal organization intent on using his business for their own means, just as my ex decides to intensify his harassment, I realize there's no denying that what I feel for my husband is a life-changing kind of love.

However, just as I begin to trust myself enough to give our marriage a real chance, danger rushes to our shore on rough tides, submerging us in a battle that might tear us apart forever...
