Dangerous Hearts

By Lori Sullivan

Maya had one plan: run. She escaped her abusive husband with the clothes on her back and a desperate hope that anonymity would keep her alive. Copper Springs, Arizona seemed far enough away. Invisible enough. Safe.

Until she met Garrett Reeves at the coffee shop where she works.

Garrett is a wounded veteran carrying his own war; PTSD, scars both visible and hidden, and a loneliness he's made peace with. He's not looking for connection. He's not looking for anything. But Maya breaks through his defenses with her quiet strength and unexpected humor, and suddenly, Garrett finds himself fighting a battle he never anticipated: falling in love.

Their connection is electric and undeniable. For the first time in years, Maya feels safe enough to trust. Garrett feels alive again. They begin building something beautiful, stolen kisses in the desert, intimate conversations under the stars, a future that seemed impossible just weeks before.

But the past doesn't stay buried.

When Maya's abuser finds her, what starts as intimidation escalates into obsession and violence. As Derek's threats grow darker and more dangerous, Maya and Garrett must navigate a broken system, face DEA investigations, and confront their own trauma, all while fighting for the fragile love they're building. Through kidnappings, court battles, and moments of desperate fear, they learn that healing isn't something you do alone. And that sometimes, love is the most dangerous thing of all-because it's worth fighting for.

Dangerous Hearts is a contemporary romance about survival and triumph, about two broken people learning that love isn't about running anymore-it's about choosing to stay and build a life worth living.
