In the third book of the Away Series, Melanie Michaels discovers there is no one more protective than an ex-assassin. Expecting their first child, her new fiancé has made it his life's purpose to see she doesn't overdo it. Melanie has never considered herself weak or fragile, and everyone treating her like a porcelain figurine brings her no comfort. No longer allowed to work or engage in martial arts training, she has no tolerable source of stress relief.
Despite the protective bubble Gabriel has her in, Melanie goes into labor early. At the hospital, complications continue, and an emergency delivery becomes necessary. Regardless of doctors and loved ones' insistence she did nothing wrong, Melanie falls into a blame spiral.
Determined she no longer deserves happiness, Melanie pushes away everyone who cares for her, and even teams up on a dangerous quest with a man who previously tried to kill her.
When their path to happily ever after hits a roadblock, can Melanie and Gabriel's relationship survive the ultimate test of love?
A missing BFF.
An unexpected island adventure.
Will Melanie and Gabriel ever make it down the aisle?
