Synopsis
A storm is coming…
Plagued by tragedy. Used to the darkness.
Brendan Murray never dared to dream of a happily ever after.
Not until she came crashing into his life.
Until he kissed an angel in the park.
Pure and sweet and untouched.
Dare he love her?
She was the only light in his dark, twisted world. His ticket straight to hell.
He took the risk and loved her anyway.
Now the storm is here and hell was coming for him.
He had to keep her safe. At any cost.
But a storm can’t last forever, can it?
And sometimes it takes darkness to see the light.

About the Author
Dyan Layne is a nurse boss by day and the writer of edgy sensual tales by night--and on weekends. Serenity, the first book in the Red Door series, is her debut novel. She's never without her Kindle, and can usually be found tapping away at her keyboard with a hot latte and a cold Dasani Lime--and sometimes champagne. She can't sing a note, but often answers in song because isn't there a song for just about everything? Born and raised a Chicago girl, she currently lives in Tampa, Florida, and is the mother of four handsome sons and a beautiful daughter, who are all grown up now, but can still make her crazy--and she loves it that way! Because normal is just so boring.
