Brothers, though not by blood, must face the dangers of the past to win the women of their dreams.

People consider Dr. Isaac Brandt to be old-fashioned, stodgy, and prone to lecturing. Certainly, Delilah does. Isaac doesn't know how to get on her good side, to show her that he could be the man for her. His friends push the two of them together, but Delilah wants nothing to do with him outside of work.

Lilah Fitzpatrick is intimidated by Isaac's genius. She admires his work and is excited to collaborate on a graphic novel series, but she keeps her emotional distance, preventing even the shallowest of friendships. She has enough on her plate, and dating is at the bottom of her priority list. When Isaac declares he wants a relationship with her, she doesn't know what to think. She does know he would be better off with a woman as smart as he is, and she is not that woman.

Fate steps in and hidden dangers from Isaac's past threaten his chance at happiness. And puts Delilah in the crosshairs of a killer. He has no choice but to tell his friends the secrets he's held for fifteen years and take steps to keep Delilah safe. Even if that means sacrificing his budding relationship with her.
