Shelter of the White Raven

Running from a past that was ingrained in a living nightmare, Cassi had thought that her aunts will was her way out of the hell that life had become while trying to guard her dying mother. Her natural beauty had been just one for the reason that she had lived for so long in disguise: to be as undesirable as possible to be the monster who dominated what was left of her moms life. Now with the promise of a real life and a place of her own to hide and lick her wounds, she was totally unprepared for what her inheritance encompassed. All that she wanted was what she had driven across the country for, a house of her own and about ten years of isolation to heal her broken being. However, she did not know if this life would heal her or destroy her. She could see that Brent was a beautiful person inside and out, except when he was around her. Having his whole world given to Cassi by the person that he had loved the most, she brought out the worst in him. She had a difficult time enduring his cocky, overpowering attitude from that first ill-fated moment they met. What had Mandy done to him without a hint or warning, she had left everything in his entire universe to a total stranger who had appeared to them during a blizzard, disguised as a grungy street urchin. No one but Brent could see a problem with her owning the entire estate of Saunders Valleytheir haven, their home. He would not let his world go without a fight. The summer program that they had started for troubled teen boys had been Mandys life. This was just one of the many things at risk under the new ownership. Who was she to judge him when she seemed to be running from her own past? For all they knew, she could be a seasoned criminal coming here to hide out in this gorgeous Montana wilderness. What was she so afraid of? He did not know whether to fight her or protect her. Could they survive together, or would they destroy each other? Meanwhile, there was a villain in Texas who threatened her existence. He wanted what was hers, and he wanted her dead!
