Christine Ingle has spent her whole life in Fireside Bay, saving its crumbling Victorians one restoration at a time. She does not do it for the money. She does it because those old homes are worth saving.
Then Daniel Hausman rolls into town from the city and starts buying up every historic house she wants, chopping the insides into apartments and calling it progress.
He is arrogant. He is infuriating. He is also the most handsome man she has met in years.
When Christine reluctantly agrees to work alongside him on one restoration, the sparks between them turn into something she never saw coming. But one small lie could bring it all crashing down, and Christine has never been good at forgiving.
Can a woman who gave up on love let herself fall for the last man she ever expected?
A sweet, small-town clean romance with later-in-life leads, a whole lot of heart, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
Laina Turner writes cozy mystery books and sweet, feel-good romances that always have a HEA. When she’s not writing she’s a college professor teaching business and English. Through all her career choices, she has continued to have a passion for writing stemming from childhood, where, as an only child, she developed a vivid imagination.
In her spare time, she’s also the personal assistant to her daughter, who’s involved in many sporting activities, while she tries to convince her husband that no, 3 dogs and 1 cat is not ‘too much.’
She is proud of her varied experiences in life from barrel racing, to being on the dance team for a semi-pro basketball team, to being a mom of 2 amazing kids.
