Ten years after her world was shattered by rape, Brooke Hague has finally picked up the pieces of her life. She worked hard to put that horrible night behind her, but the madman who hurt her is paroled and begins to stalk her. Now, Brooke's life is in danger. Crab fishing captain Nathan Lowery has suffered his fair share of tragedy over the years. He swears he's given up on love, despite the feelings he has for the shy, petite redhead. Learning of Brooke's stalker, Nathan does the one thing he can to help protect her - he takes her with him to Alaska during king crab season. Cooking for six men on a boat in the middle of the Bering Sea presents more of a challenge than Brooke anticipated. It's also the last place she expects to fall in love. But when the season ends and the stalker is still at large, Brooke's fear for her own wellbeing is overshadowed by her need to save her new love's life. She knows, in the end, if necessary, she'll give her own life to save his?
