The Fall of Summer by Rebecca Dale

The Fall of Summer by Rebecca Dale

He was supposed to protect her. He chose to keep her.

Summer's life is defined by someone else's sins -- ones she never committed, but can't escape. When danger closes in, protection comes from the last place she expects... and at a cost she never agreed to pay.

Jacob is feared for a reason. Controlled, ruthless, and dangerously composed, he doesn't make promises he can't keep -- and once he decides something is his responsibility, he doesn't let go.

The closer Summer gets to him, the harder it becomes to tell where safety ends and control begins. Every rule feels like a warning. Every touch feels like a threat. And every moment under his watch pulls her deeper into something she was never meant to survive unscathed.

Because Jacob isn't the hero.
And being protected by him may be the most dangerous thing of all.
