Forgive and forget wasn’t her motto, so when his handsome face appears back in Lake Howling, it’s fair to say she’s not happy. She’s stronger now, a businesswoman who doesn’t take any crap from anyone. Especially not a rock superstar with an over-inflated ego. He may be a man loved by thousands, just not her! So why did she kiss him? He’s back in Lake Howling to see his sister and instead finds something Ryan hadn’t known he was missing. Friends and Faith. Friends he understood, Faith he didn’t. She refused to acknowledge his success, and her cool attitude gets under his skin. But he’s never walked away from a challenge, especially one that stirs him up like Faith. When his life follows him from L.A. and threatens Faith, he knows that leaving is no longer an option, because if he did, he’d be leaving more than his home. He’d be leaving his heart behind too.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He needed a date for his cousin’s wedding before his family forced one on him. No strings. One night. Sawyer Duke hadn’t planned on it being her. Birdie McAllister was Lyntacky’s Little Miss Sunshine. Unnaturally happy and living her best life, or so he’d always believed. All that changed when he overheard a single conversation. Now he knows her secret, and he’s making her pay for his silence by being his plus-one. The only issue Sawyer could see with the arrangement was that she no longer just annoyed him. Now he wanted her too. Of all the people she knew to find out her secret, it had to be him. Sawyer Duke, Lyntacky’s grumpiest man. Yes, they have a monthly poll for that! Birdie was just barely keeping her head above water, working three jobs and trying to keep her family home. She didn’t need a Duke poking his nose into her business. She’d go to the wedding to ensure he kept her secret, but then she was avoiding him. But a night surrounded by loved up people loosened Sawyer’s tongue, and she realized her secrets were nothing compared to his. Clearly, there was more under that rough exterior than he wanted people to see. Lyntacky was like most small towns. It had its interfering locals and families who could trace their roots back hundreds of years. Where Lyntacky stood out from the rest was their love of Square Dancing and the Duke brothers. Both were trouble. Neither had plans for leaving.
