☆A Top 100 Romantic Suspense Amazon Bestseller☆ It's impossible to shield your heart from a man who knows you so well. A man who is your husband. The father of your children. The love of your life. A man like Giulio Giannotti. I thought we would last forever...but we won't. Not when he doesn't believe our abducted child is still alive. Not if I continue to lose myself in this chaotic hope. Not until our daughter is found. It scares me...the stark reality of how cruel life can be to us, how twisted secrets turn to sacrifice and how there's always someone in the misty shadows lurking...watching. Tonight marks six months since we lost it all. It should bind Giulio and me closer together, yet the moment his hot gaze lands on mine, it's all over. The pact I made with myself to reserve all my nerves shatters into a million pieces as those eyes burn straight through me. They're heavenly fire. And it's as if he can see me. All of me... If this is supposed to be the end of us, then why does it feel like it's only just the beginning? Merciful Vows is a standalone and the first book in the emotionally gripping interconnected world set in Seattle: 'The Giannotti World'.
