Southern Comfort by Iris Abbott

A tragedy that has altered one family forever.
A woman on the run who’s tired of living like the ghost some people would believe her to be.
A man with a dangerous job, looking for the one woman strong enough to stand by his side.

The lingering danger from her past could rip them apart with no warning.

Southern Comfort is a steamy, contemporary romance with a twist of suspense. Return to the sultry Lowcountry of South Carolina with author Iris Abbott. Follow the story of Deanne and Josh as they fall in love while facing the danger that threatens to permanently end them. They will stand firm and defeat the menace who imperils any future they might have together.
Living under an assumed identity and staying under the radar is a must for Deanne. Who would have thought taking a part-time job at Southern Rain would put it all in jeopardy? She knows who Josh Heath is. Deanne believes it’s only a matter of time before he recognizes her and discovers the heartbreaking secret she is hiding.

Josh was borderline obsessed with Deanne Moss. He told himself it was the allure of the mystery. Josh ignored the fact that his intense interest might have more to do with a pair of long, shapely legs and unbelievably plump, kissable lips. She seemed familiar, but no matter how hard he tried, Josh could not place her. That, more than anything else, drove his insatiable curiosity to discover her true identity.
