About this ebook

He never planned to fall for her.

Now he’ll risk everything to save her.

As a special agent—and a self-proclaimed bachelor—Brian Malone has rules that keep his life controlled and complication-free.

Until Tess Bingham.

Tess has sacrificed too much to gamble on a man with a reputation for being a player. She put med school on hold to raise her teenage brother, Andy, and built a stable life working as the medical examiner’s assistant.

When a storm damages their home, Brian offers Tess and Andy the use of his family’s beach house while repairs are made. Soon, he’s checking in far more often than necessary—and pretending the attraction between them doesn’t exist becomes impossible.

Then Tess disappears.

Now Brian isn’t just investigating a crime… he’s hunting the people responsible.

Because this isn’t just another case. It’s the woman who won his heart.

And he’ll break every rule to bring her home.

Ratings and reviews

Brian and Tess This was a quick read. The story was engaging, it had a slight twist that was intriguing. It does deal with death of parents but it was written very well. There was great chemistry between Tess and Brian.Andy had a lot to learn but Brian is patient and works for ways to reach him. The way Brian and Andy met makes it a little harder to reach him. Brian is steady and patient. I love the family dynamics and Uncle Dan is such a wonderful father figure. I would recommend this book.

Her Savior by Samantha Cole is a gripping romantic suspense that hooked me from the start. Brian Malone’s guarded heart collides with Tess Bingham’s resilience, creating sparks that feel both tender and dangerous. When Tess disappears, the tension rises, making this story thrilling, emotional, and deeply satisfying. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is the third story in the hot and steamy romantic "Malone Brothers" series. It is a stand alone read. This one is about Brian and Tess. He is a special agent with no desire for permanent or complications. She is raising her brother and put her career on hold. The story is suspenseful, heartwarming, passionate and more with some thrilling bits. I like the characters and how their story develops.
