Synopsis

After inheriting her grandmother's rural Pennsylvania home, Jesse Lehman thinks she's finally found safety-until a charming stranger shatters that illusion.

When her partner Josh dies suddenly, Jesse is left grief-stricken and alone with Legend, the headstrong dog he left behind. Isolated and vulnerable, she turns to Rick Sabin, a charismatic dog trainer who promises to transform Legend into the guardian that stands between her and danger.

But Rick has his own plans. And Jesse is exactly where he wants her-alone, dependent, and miles from help.

When your protector becomes your predator, who can you trust?

Unlikely Hero is the perfect book for readers who like to be entertained and emotionally engaged-a "thinking person's thriller," full of heart. It explores themes of vulnerability, resilience, and the surprising places we find strength when our survival depends on it.
