Finlay Donovan Knocks 'Em Dead (Finlay Donovan, #2)

by Elle Cosimano

Because I’m not the luckiest person in the world, and I know better than to assume the dead don’t come back to haunt you.

Why did my heroine need a hero to save her? Why couldn’t she just be trusted to save herself?

I knew, maybe better than anyone, that some stories had a way of getting stuck inside our heads. Usually, because we were afraid of what those stories revealed about us—our fears and our inadequacies, our mistakes and our failures. Sometimes, those stories needed a little nudging to come out.

There comes a time in your life when it’s easier to take the good with the bad, Finlay. Anything else is too much work. No man is perfect. The best we can do is settle for a good one.

But just because you can survive alone doesn’t mean you should have to.”
