Beauty, brains, and money. Alexa has it all, and luck is her middle name. She's the first to defend her family and friends and never needs help in return. Men fall at her feet-except the abrasive police officer Kent, who seems to despise her. But a series of strange events punctures her protective bubble, exposing her to fear and self-doubt. She doesn't know who she should be more afraid of, her unknown pursuer or the sudden protective, softer side of the officer. Kent has watched the women he loves the most in his life suffer unbearably, unable to save them himself, and now he refuses to get close to anybody. To most people, he's a heartless, angry cop without a soft interior. Until one stormy day, fate teases him with a warm ray of Alexa's sunshine, melting a piece of his icy heart. Kent believes he hates her, but when her brightness dims, his hate turns into something else. Something he refuses to let another person take away from him, especially the stranger lurking in the shadows.
