Vicky
DiFrancesco is ready to put the past behind her. After a humiliating divorce,
she’s determined to make her new café a success. The last thing she needs is
her first love around, reminding her of what they’d lost. But when her life is
threatened, could he be the very man she needs?
Jamie
DiSilva’s homecoming after retiring from the army isn’t the one he’d been
hoping for. Now, he’s trying to start a home improvement business in a town
settled on holding him accountable for the sins of his late brothers. Redeeming
himself to the girl he never stopped loving and her family is difficult when
his brothers’ secrets come back to haunt him.
Untangling
themselves from the past means righting several wrongs and deciding if their
love is meant to last forever.
Excerpt
“What happened today between
us can never happen again.”
“Because of your sister?”
“Because of my entire family.
Kate isn’t the only member with a grudge against the DiSilva family.”
Just his bad luck.
“My parents and I have never
done anything to warrant being shunned by them. Our parents were best friends.”
“That doesn’t change what your
brothers did or how it’s impacted my family. It’s one thing to deal with you
living in the same town. It’s another for them to accept what just happened
between us.”
“What happens between us has
nothing to do with your family,” he snapped. He was tired of being judged. It
wasn’t like she didn’t feel something for him. He lowered his voice and cupped
her cheek.
“Things can be good between us, Vick. You know it.”
She held his gaze, and he
felt her tremble. He leaned forward, determined to convince her to give them a
chance.
Her hand shot out and stopped
him from doing more than graze her lips. “Stop. Nothing good will come of
this.” She rolled off the bed and kept her back to him.
“You’re choosing them over
your own happiness?”
She wiped at her face before
turning to him.
Despite the tears that
dampened her eyes, her answer was clear from the stubborn set of her chin.
“What choice do I have?”
“There’s always a choice.”
“And a price to pay. They’re
my family. I pick them. I’ll always pick them.”
