Lonely at Pinehaven
Romancing Softly Book 5
When Sarah's parents are killed in a motor accident, and she inherits her father's business, everything changes. She realises that Robert, her long-standing fiancé, wants the business more than he wants her, and finds herself more alone than she has ever been.
All Sarah's friends have known her and Robert as a couple for a long time, so when her doctor tells her to take a break before she has a massive breakdown, she chooses to take an extended stay at a private hotel her parents used to patronise.
There, she meets Ashley, the owner's son, whose marriage had dramatically failed a few years previously, leaving him mistrustful of women in general. Complications arise when Ashley's wife dumps their six-year old child at the hotel. The traumatised six-year-old desperately needs to learn the meaning of trust, and provides a conduit through which Ashley and Sarah might heal their respective wounds - if they can individually let go of past mistakes.
Romancing Softly
Romancing Softly is the brand identity for romances that explore the psychological conflicts of new relationships, eschewing overt physical detail. These perceptive romances feature strong, contemporary, protagonists. Happy endings are the name of the game, the story element providing a challenge that has to be met and conquered by the protagonists if they want to achieve their happily ever afters.
True romance explores the convergence of minds and souls striving towards a profound relationship. The rocky journey delivers an emotional ride for the protagonists, right to the not-so-bitter end. The race into the bedroom is left to the imagination, being nature's wickedly amusing imperative.
The unique covers reflect the Valentine's Day flowers and hearts image, a universally accepted expression of everlasting love, rather than the clinch of desire, which can be fleeting. Happy Reading
