Brother's Keeper

Trapped in a web of hate with no escape, a young woman discovers her

attraction to the man determined to protect her may be her undoing. Will time

run out, or will he find a way to protect her before her abusive father kills

her?

When Rowan is awarded a ballet scholarship to Michigan State University during

her senior year of high school, her life’s dream is finally realized. Having

lost her mother at an early age and being subjected to the abuse of a

destitute drunken father, she has known unimaginable loss and heartache and

been left wanting for a better life—a life now within her grasp. But with one

ill-fated phone call, her life is turned upside down.

Logan is Rowan's best friend’s older brother whose career is taking off as he

prepares to graduate law school and move cross-country to the prestigious law

firm that has offered him a very lucrative contract. When Rowan finds herself

at Logan’s mercy after he inadvertently learns of the abuse she has suffered

at the hands of her father, their lives become intertwined in a way neither

ever imagined nor wanted.

In an effort to protect her, but with his own hands tied by her unwillingness

to report the abuse, Logan strikes a deal requiring Rowan to stay with him

whenever there is a chance her father might be on a drunken binge—which is

often. For her agreement and cooperation, he will keep her secret. Soon, their

time together weighs on them both, and they find themselves constantly tempted

to step outside the bounds of their supposed platonic relationship. But there

is no point. The devastating fact of the matter is their lives are moving in

opposite directions—a relationship destined to die before it even has a chance

to live.

The ever present clock plagues them both as it ticks off the days until they

are parted. But one all important question remains—after he leaves, how will

he protect her from a father intent on hating her until the day he dies … or

the day he kills her?
