One bride runs from an altar that was never right for her. One local doesn't hesitate to step between her and the man who won't let her go. Could a single act of protection become the start of everything?

Octavia Hicks always pictured herself married by fifty. Instead, she's standing on the sand in a wedding dress, watching the man she agreed to marry get uglier by the minute. When she finally calls it off and his hand clamps down on her wrist instead of letting go, a broad-shouldered stranger steps between them without a second thought.

Clash Blackburn has gotten good at swallowing his anger. Customers make careless comments about fallen demons more often than he'd like, and he's learned to bite his tongue and keep working rather than give them the reaction they want. But the moment he hears a bride's voice crack on the beach and sees a man's hand close around her wrist, his restraint disappears completely.

Even though Octavia has no business trusting her own judgment days after walking away from a wedding, she can't stop thinking about the stranger who stepped in without a second thought. And although Clash has spent years keeping his composure no matter the provocation, one glimpse of her wiped it out completely.

Octavia can't shake the memory of a stranger stepping between her and the fiancé who wouldn't let go. Clash can't explain why his hard-won composure vanished the second he saw her in trouble. Can what started as a rescue turn into something that lasts?
