The drifter

Description:

Comes a drifter to a windswept island...He wanted to tell her everything. About the lost years that had changed him from a desperate young boy into a man hardened by life. About the night he'd sold his soul for a woman who wasn't worth the price....But Jackson Underhill said nothing. After all, he was an outlaw, clearly on the run—reason enough for silence.The truth was Dr. Leah Mundy scared him. She made him want to trust again, to share his burden. She made him want a home, a family. And it was dangerous to want such things. Because the past would find him if he stayed—and there could be no future with a woman who would not leave.
