Now, Matt has a two-pronged mission: discover who wants Delilah dead and convince the candle shop … owner to trust Matt with her heart.

When Delilah Frost lost her father to cancer at the age of 14, her life changed drastically… and not for the better. She was verbally abused and bullied throughout high school by her family and the majority of the people in town. Once she graduated from high school, she left her home town of Harmony and never looked back. While in college, she decided that enough was enough. It was time to take her life back. She worked long and hard to get to where she was and she refused to let her past hold her back.
Needing a fresh start, she moves to Otter Creek and opens her very own candle shop, Wicks. She never imagined that the small town would welcome her with open arms. For the first time since her father passed away, she has friends and feels like she belongs. She knows that Otter Creek is where she’s meant to be. Now if she could only catch the eye of the handsome medic, Matt. 😉
Matt Rainer has had his eye on the beautiful candle shop owner since he arrived in Otter Creek with PSI. He’s been working to get past the friend zone for awhile. When he receives a call from Delilah telling him that she has been attacked by an intruder in her home, his protectiveness kicks into overdrive. He doesn’t know who is behind the attack or why but he knows that he will do everything in his power to make sure Delilah is protected and taken care of.
If the attack isn’t enough, Delilah receives a call from her stepfather telling her her mom is dying and is requesting she come home to see her one last time before it’s too late. To say she’s torn is an understatement. She hasn’t been home since she graduated high school. She’s no where near ready to face her past, but she wants to see her mom. When Matt informs her that he’s going with her, along with his teammate Cade and his wife Sasha, she knows that with them by her side, she can do it.
But when trouble follows Delilah to Harmony, she’ll have to accept reality. Someone is out to kill her and isn’t afraid to hurt others along the way. It’s going to be up to Matt and Bravo team to stop the enemy before it’s too late. But protecting their family is what they do. The enemy won’t know what hit them.
Oh my gosh! You guys! I have been dying for this book to be released! I was going through some serious withdrawals! Haha. So when I received an email stating Under Fire was live, I squealed, did a happy dance, and one-clicked this baby! I couldn’t wait to read it! I was NOT disappointed! I was sucked in from the very beginning and got mad when real life got in the way of my reading time! I loved this book! And it was so fun to catch up with everyone in Otter Creek!
I know that this one just came out but I can’t wait for the next release! Ms. Deel has become an auto-buy author for me. I can’t wait to see where she takes us next!
