Description
When Cornish nurse Eliza Hamilton is violently mugged on her way home from a night shift, a mysterious stranger emerges from the shadows to save her. But before the police arrive, he vanishes-leaving Eliza to wonder if her dark-haired saviour was real or a trauma-fueled hallucination.
Days later, he reappears on her doorstep in the dead of night.
Rain-soaked, brooding, and evasive, Roman Holbrook seems to know more than he's saying-and danger seems to follow wherever he goes. Is Roman her guardian angel... or something far more sinister?
As threats close in, secrets unravel and the line between protector and predator begins to blur. Eliza must decide if she can trust the man who may be her only hope-or her ultimate undoing.
A gripping romantic thriller set against the haunting backdrop of Cornwall, perfect for fans of mystery, suspense, and unexpected heroes.

Person
Donna Collins was born at home in Romford, Essex, England. Five minutes later, she was one-hundred-percent a bookworm. Her favorite novel, Enid Blyton's The Children of Cherry Tree Farm, was a gift from her parents and now the most worn book on her bookshelf.It was this book, and her love for 70's and 80's TV shows such as Hart to Hart, Charlie's Angels, Hunter, and Dempsey and Makepeace, that lured Donna to the dark side of mystery and thriller writing. Since then, Donna has racked up many favorite authors, including Paula Gosling (A Running Duck is the second most worn book on her bookshelf), Jonathan Kellerman, Patricia Cornwell, and A.J. Quinnell.Although Donna loves to write, she also loves crime - and her career proves it. Having founded her school magazine, her professional career includes not only working at OK! Magazine but also for Essex Police, Ormiston Prison Services, and Essex Offender Services. With publishing credits for freelance and commissioned magazine articles under her belt, Donna has now turned her attention and imagination to what she is best at - storytelling.In her spare time (what spare time?), Donna loves anything scary that will get her adrenaline pumping, including storm chasing, fright nights, zombie-infested shopping malls, and séance panic rooms - with her all-time goal involving the open sea, a cage, and a whole heap of great white sharks. Donna also proudly boasts finishing the 2010 London Marathon, but you'll have to ask nicely if you want her to tell you where she was placed and who overtook her.
