She may not need a knight in shining armour to save her, but that doesn't mean she's going to look a gift knight in the visor... Paisley doesn't need a knight in shining armour to rescue her from her high - powered, abusive ex - husband. She's got it covered on her own: she's changed her name, liquidated her assets, and has a plan to disappear in the Rocky Mountain National Park. Psychiatrist Sterling James has absolutely no intention of being anyone's saviour. The only woman he has any time for is his sister. But circumstances change when Sterling finds Paisley in an unexpected and life - threatening situation. Brought in to the drama of her escape, Sterling finds himself invested, and he can't move on until he knows Paisley is going to be safe. It should be a simple enough exercise to get Paisley out of the park and into her new life. But nothing is ever as simple as it should be, and Sterling soon discovers that even if her ex - husband buys the set - up, he might not be able to watch Paisley go...
