Inevitable Detour

The day my life took an inevitable detour things got a little crazy.My name is Essalin Brant, but everyone calls me Essa. I attend a small college in a tiny town, and in my twenty-two years of life I've never even traveled outside the state of Pennsylvania. You could say my life is pretty boring. I live by the rules. I'm a good girl and nothing exciting ever happens.
But that's all about to change.
Enter Farren Shaw. Not only is he older and intimidating, but he's more sure of himself than any 29-year-old man has a right to be. Did I mention that he's drop-dead gorgeous? Well, he is. He also happens to be my best friend Haven's brother. And I would be content with just fantasizing about Farren from afar, but when Haven suddenly goes missing, her gorgeous brother is the only one who believes me when I say she was abducted, even though all signs seem to suggest Haven left town willingly.
I know better, though. As does Farren. So when he asks me to accompany him to search for his sister, I accept.
That's when the real adventure begins.
Our quest to find Haven takes us across the country. And throughout the time we spend together, I find myself falling for Farren . . . falling hard. He's everything I've ever wanted. But is he really someone I should fear?
Because aside from making me feel things I've never felt before, Farren is hiding something. Something big. What could this stunning man be keeping from me? And why? Is Haven's disappearance somehow connected to his mysterious job?
All I know is that things are about to get real.
Welcome to the Inevitable Detour that has become my life.
