Surrender

Sometimes the future begins with letting go of the past.

Starting over is never simple.
Keefe O'Brian has finally made his dream a reality-owning a pub in the Irish countryside alongside his sister. Though raised in Massachusetts, Ireland has always felt like home-the place his heart returns to. He's charming, successful, and more than ready to find someone to share his life with. But after too many failed relationships, Keefe's starting to think lasting love might not be in the cards.

She didn't intend to fall in love, but fate had other plans.

Gwen McKenna has never truly known love-not from her powerful, emotionally distant father, and not from anyone else. She's built walls to protect herself, and they've served her well. But when her father dies and she discovers she has a sister, Gwen sets out to find the one piece of family she's never had. What she doesn't expect is Keefe O'Brian-infuriatingly confident, maddeningly attractive, and the only man who's ever made her want to let her guard down. From the moment they meet, the tension crackles. Their chemistry is instant, electric, and completely inconvenient.

But not everyone welcomes the past with open arms.

As Gwen and Keefe's bond deepens, not all of the O'Brians are eager to welcome her into the fold. And as truths come to light and loyalties are tested, Gwen and Keefe are already in deep-their hearts entangled before either of them saw it coming. In a family rooted in loyalty, can they find the courage to surrender to passion, to forgiveness, and to each other?
