About this ebook

A gentle Texan shows up on Marina's doorstep, and her dream of starting over in Tyler becomes a nightmare.

He's the vice principal. Rumors about the fire in Tyler have led him directly to her teenage son. And her. Marina had traded Chicago for a quiet Victorian in Wisconsin, desperate to give sixteen-year-old Jon a peaceful home.

Now Tyler is reeling from the blaze at the Ingalls factory, and Clint Stanford arrives in cowboy boots to investigate a cafeteria scuffle. Hoping to question a troubled student, the Texas widower finds himself completely disarmed by the boy's protective mother.

Between computer lessons and a stray dog having puppies in her yard, keeping her distance proves impossible.

Vowing to protect her hard-won independence, the cautious secretary soon surrenders her quiet evenings to the persistent newcomer. Out to win the boy's trust, he loses his heart, instead, to the lovely divorcée.

One quiet Wisconsin town, a suspicious factory fire, and two newcomers trying to protect the people they love.
  • Small Town Setting: A tight-knit Wisconsin community rallies together in the wake of disaster, while a matchmaking lawyer and curious neighbors keep tabs on the town's newest romance.
  • Second Chance: Guarded after a painful marriage, Marina has sworn off romance entirely, but Clint's patient warmth and weekend outings to Timber Lake slowly tempt her to risk her heart.
  • Small Town Mystery: Whispers blame sixteen-year-old Jon for the devastating Ingalls plant blaze, forcing him to navigate hostile hallways and a bitter senior athlete while Clint searches for the truth.
  • Found Family: An unexpected bond forms between a grieving Texas widower, an earnest teenager dreaming of college scholarships, and a rescued stray dog that claims them all.
  • Also by This Author: A Bride for Calder Brown, A Man for Maggie Moore and A Montana Christmas.
