| The Duke Brothers Book 7 |
She thought she knew her story. He thought he was done being a hero. They were both wrong.
Finch McAllister entered the military at eighteen. It wasn’t just a career—it was his life. Now he was home, injured and grounded, facing a future he hadn’t chosen and wanting solitude to heal.
Lyntacky had other ideas. So did Nina Winters.
Nina built her life exactly the way she wanted it. A job she loved, friends she trusted, and zero complications. Then her mother’s memory faded, and the contents of a box changed everything she’d always believed. She wasn’t who she thought she was. And someone dangerous was hunting her.
Finch McAllister didn’t come home to be anyone’s hero. But when Nina Winters lands in danger, walking away isn’t an option.
Tropes: Forced Proximity, Romantic Suspense, Small Town, Wounded Military MMC, Hidden Identity
Meet The McAllisters. Growing up as Lyntacky’s unofficial hippies, the McAllister kids mastered two things fast: loyalty and survival. They band together like pros, recycle like champions, and can whip up an herbal remedy for whatever mysterious rash you’ve picked up.

My Review: 5/5 Stars
Finch had his life planned out. He always wanted to be in the military and planned to be there for a long time. But an accident changes everything. A year later, he is discharged and continuing to struggle with his continued concussion diagnosis. And now he has no idea what to do next. He’s back home in Lyntacky and while he wants to just wallow for a bit longer, his family and friends won’t let him get away with that. He’s a different man than he once was but not so different that the feelings he had for Nina went away. But can he actually have the future he once wanted when he doesn’t know what his future looks like anymore? Meanwhile, Nina is dealing with a lot. When she loses her mother, she is thrown for even more of a loop when a letter from her mother reveals the truth about her father. Turns out he wasn’t exactly a good guy and her mother has done everything in her power to protect Nina from him. And when there have been a few incidents lately, she can’t help but wonder if he is connected to it after all. But she’s not alone. Not with Finch who she’s had feelings for for a while or the rest of town where the locals are protective of one another. As always, I love coming back into this world! I’m reminded constantly that I wish I could live in this town! I loved getting to know Finch and Nina more in this story. These two were great for one another and they truly came together when they both needed one another most. As always with these stories, on top of a romance, we get a bit of a suspense. Great story all around! And I’m looking forward to the next one!
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
