The Protector

Haunted by war and betrayal, Caleb Winters seeks solace in the wilderness, his heart locked behind walls no one has dared to breach —until Isabelle Moore arrives, desperate and unannounced.

A widow with a young son, she carries secrets as deep as his own, and though Caleb vows to keep his distance, the pull between them is undeniable.

Isabelle is warmth and light, awakening memories of summers long past, of a love that once flickered but never truly died. But danger lurks in the shadows, the ghosts of her late husband’s past creeping closer, threatening everything Caleb swore to protect.

As passion ignites and danger looms, they must fight for their fragile happiness. But when the past comes knocking, will their love be strong enough to survive the storm?
