Stephenson lost and desperate—until a mysterious primitive named Adam appears, forcing Evelyn to confront her carefully guarded contempt for anything wild and unrefined.

A shy young woman arrives in Los Angeles desperate for work, and through a white lie lands a governess position with the elegant architect Alfred Rampion—a man she's instantly drawn to. When she discovers he's still devoted to the memory of his beautiful late wife, she realizes she may be competing for his heart with someone far more powerful than any living rival. As she settles into the household and grows closer to both Rampion and his daughter Margery, the pull of the past threatens everything she's hoped for.
When Helen Foster's fiancé Chris Lockwood disappears with her life savings in a stock swindle, she vows off romance forever and joins the police force to hunt him down—only to find herself drawn into the dangerous orbit of Frank Kennard, the city's most elusive crime boss, who claims he wants nothing more than her heart. As Helen navigates a web of undercover work, suspicious motives, and her own guarded defenses, she discovers that the line between duty and desire may be far harder to hold than she imagined.
