Shelter for Quinn

Freak. Witch. Ugly. Abomination.

Having grown up with a port-wine birthmark on her face and neck, Quinn Dixon's heard them all. Her own mother couldn't bear to touch her, let alone strangers. Years of stares and insults from everyone from classmates to foster families have made her understandably reluctant to trust. So when John comes along, of course he couldn't be interested in more than a brief affair. He'll get sick of all the gawking and whispers soon enough and leave her...just like everyone else.

John "Driftwood" Trettle was captivated by Quinn the moment they met. After months of skirting around their attraction, one pivotal evening finds John seizing the reins and refusing to be denied a chance to prove he's worthy of Quinn's time, her trust, and her love. To show her he'll have her back, always, and defend her against anyone cruel or stupid enough to hurt his woman.

But he can't protect against an unknown threat. Even if it wears a familiar face...
