Description
Something in St. John's intense blue eyes reminded Jessa hill of her childhood friend. But Adam Alden was long dead.... The handsome stranger had vowed to help her defeat Adam's father in the mayoral race. Yet St. John's quest for revenge seemed too personal for a casual acquaintance. Could St. John and Adam be the same man...and would he disappear with Jessa's heart a second time? Dameron St. John returned home with a new identity and a score to settle. But he wasn't prepared for the emotions that surfaced when he reunited with Jessa. Could he let her in once again...and together would they slay his demons once and for all?

The problem with
Serioiusly damaged tortured hero (possibly very triggery re child abuse.)
The good guys win, the bad guy shows his colors and foams at the mouth at the end. It's a pretty good trip along the way, but a surprisingly slim read for something so heavy.
