Overview

The only thing worse than the lie that tore them apart is the truth. Cursed with soft eyes and steep curves, Jenny Davis spent her teens dodging her mother's bad-news boyfriends, her twenties battling small-town whispers, and the past eleven years nursing the heart Deacon Raine shattered when he left. Bent but not broken, Jenny builds a sweet life around her bakery: safe, steady, and hers. Then tall, dark, and deadly returns from the military. He wants a second chance. But he's hardened beyond recognition. And she'd rather be alone than repeat her mother's mistakes. Ten years of service couldn't purge Jenny Davis from Deacon's veins, but it taught him to see people through a different lens. Despite his father's warnings, his mother's pleas, and the never-ending rumours, he's looking at the girl he left behind. This time, he's determined to be her shield. But when the truth comes to light, will he guard her heart? Or break it?

Author Information

As a reader and a storyteller, I am irresistibly drawn to more mature characters. Though they often carry the fears, insecurities, and traumas from their younger years, they tend to do so with humor and panache! They bumble along until life forces them to deal with their brokenness in the midst of parenting, building a career, looking after aging parents, and starting or mending a romantic relationship. Here is where I write my stories. Stories where physical intimacy reflects emotional intimacy and healing. Stories of sisterhood that celebrate family and chosen family. Soul-stirring stories that take you on an emotional journey, one where you might easily recognize yourself or someone you love. As in the real world, there are no easy answers. But their hard-won HEAs will make your heart happy. At home, I am outnumbered by one husband, four kids, a dog, a cat, and plumbing issues that never quit. You can most often find me curled up on my front porch, earbuds in, music cranked up, with my nose stuck in a book. Honestly, I'm most often hiding from my favorite people in the world who require far too many meals. When I'm really lucky, my husband, who is without a doubt the hero in my very own love story, is hiding with me.
