The first time, the intensity of his scene pushed her so far into subspace, released way too many emotions… she didn’t dare let down her guard a second time. Not with anyone.But that was before everything went to hell, and now, not only is he back in her home… but he might just be in her heart.Author's note: Standing Fast is the third installment in the Quinn Quartet. Although the book contains a complete romance story with HEA, we recommend reading the books in order—starting with Delving Deep. Standing Fast mentions child abuse and although it’s in the past, this might trigger memories. It also contains disturbing and harmful coping mechanisms to deal with the past. Reader discretion is advised. less
