Samantha Baca delivers with a steamy small town romance series that is full of protective cinnamon roll heroes and suspense around every corner. Collection Two contains books 3-5 in the Haven Brook series.
The Ties That Bind
They say that you find love when you're not looking, and I definitely wasn't looking. My only focus was on raising my son and giving him the life his mom would have wanted him to have before she passed.
When a woman came crashing into my life- literally- I had no choice but to stop and help. She was stranded with nowhere to go, and there was an uneasiness about her that sent chills up my spine. It was apparent that she was running from something, but the question wasn't what, but rather who.
I should have drawn the line and kept my distance from her. I didn't need any unnecessary drama in my life. But when her daughter had the same frightened look on her face, I knew that I couldn't.
Letting them stay with us was only supposed to be a temporary solution until the storm passed. We weren't supposed to fall so easily into acting like a family. It should have been easy to let her go and walk away from whatever was haunting her. But as life had already taught me, nothing was ever easy.
A Very Haven Christmas
Life is full of secrets, so it shouldn't be any shock that I had a few of my own. Being a single mother to three- technically four if you count my son's best friend- overly protective men made it hard to share the big news with them.
Christmas is supposed to be a happy time for family to come together and enjoy the festivities, so why did I feel like I was sitting on pins and needles?
Three Strikes, You're Gone
There were three things in life that I truly loved: baseball, women, and my family. Not necessarily in that order. The funny thing about life is that it can change in an instant, and the things you love are taken in a heartbeat.
It was a new year, a new start, a fresh beginning. Or so I thought. My career was over before it had started, and I found myself stranded in a town even smaller than Haven Brook. The only good thing about getting stuck there was that there was only one mechanic in town, and she was hot.
Kayce was as wild as the purple in her hair. Her infectious laughter and witty banter were enough to pull me in, but the darkness in her eyes hinted that she was hiding something. Something big.
Her secrets quickly caught up with her, and there was nowhere to run. Everything she thought she knew wasn't what it seemed, and I found myself tangled up in the webs of lies spinning around her. I had fought death before, but this time, I wasn't so sure I would be so lucky.
