After losing his wife and unborn daughter in a horrific automobile accident, Lachlan O'Quinn swears off feeling anything romantic for anyone. Taking over his father's veterinarian practice in County Kerry after his retirement ten years later, Lachlan adjusts to his new life as a widowed country doctor at only thirty-eight. Dodging the old biddies who try to set him up with one or the other of their daughters, granddaughters or nieces, Lachlan successfully stays away from dating, love, and feeling anything below the belt. Until one night, when a particularly brutal storm rolls in from the sea, and with it, a exceptionally beautiful woman banging on his door well after midnight, begging for help. Corrine McDonnagh is running from her father's debts. He gambled *her* in a poker game with the heir to the London Mafia and when he lost, Corrine knows it's only a matter of time before they come for her. Running is the only thing she can think of, even if it means sacrificing her father's health and well-being. What she doesn't expect, is Hurricane Tyrone making landfall just as she makes it to a small town on the Irish coast. Her trusty companion; her Irish wolfhound, Oscar by her side, she attempts to navigate though one of the worst storms in Ireland's history. When a tree splits in half and the trunk pins Oscar down, unable to move, she tries to free her beloved dog and get him to safety but the wind and the weight of the wood is too much. Rushing to the lone cottage with a single lamp lit in the window, a sign to travelers the occupant was in the medical field, she hurries to the door banging on the solid frame, begging for help. She never expects the most handsome man she's ever seen to answer her cries. His toffee colored eyes, beautifully haunted and yet gentle, threatens to swallow her up, if Hurricane Tyrone doesn't beat him to it. Letting the strangely attractive woman and her dog stay overnight is one thing but when travel is impossible for the next few days, Lachlan needs to figure out who she is so afraid of and how to protect her, all while guarding his own shattered heart from her soft smiles, sweet caresses, heated kisses, and the song of heart's desire.*Possible trigger warning.
