Elle Nicoll

I fled New York to escape my cheating Fiancé.Only to collide with a man who’s running from the entire world.The day of my wedding I find my fiancé half-dressed behind an oversized potted plant, committing himself to one of my bridesmaids.So I run…Halfway across the world to an off-the-grid retreat my best friend swears will save me.Sun. Sea. Meditation.And absolutely no lying men.Until I meet one of the instructors.A man who goes by Woody, and spends his days hidden away in a shack, carving driftwood sculptures like he’s trying to forget the world exists.He has the strength to crush me, and looks at me like he’s scared he might.But beneath the armour is a man concealing scars and fighting an internal battle.He might think he’s a lost cause.But you’re only lost until someone finds you.The sensible thing would be to walk away.Instead, when he warns me to keep my distance, I move closer.When he tells me he’s not safe, my blood burns hotter.And as I dig closer to the secret he’s desperate to protect…He growls my name like I belong to him.I want to see the real him.The good. The bad. The broken.But when I discover the truth about who he is, and what he did, I realize…Trusting him is the biggest risk I’ll ever take.(Perfect for readers who love steamy, emotional, slow-burn romances, featuring a runaway bride, a guarded grumpy hero, forced proximity, one bed, big secrets, sizzling tension, enemies to lovers, found family, and a happily ever after that puts your heart back together after tearing it apart.)
