Owed

A Kavanagh Irish Mafia Romance

Declan Kavanagh & Katherine “Kate” Murphy

Some debts are paid in money. The ones that matter never are.

Declan is sorting his brother’s estate when he finds eighteen months of money flowing where it never should have gone. Collecting it may save his position—and destroy the woman he is falling for.

Kate is a home-health nurse with a family that has taken from her for years. When Paddy collapses and she performs CPR, Declan brings her into the Kavanagh house—and into a debt neither of them can settle alone.
