Description:
An
unexpected rescue rekindles an old romance between a single dad widower and a
woman caught in a small town scandal that made her flee the one place where she
belongs. Can a second chance at first love end in a happily ever after?
Luke
Luview has given up on love. Finally ready to let go of his late wife’s clothes, the grieving
small-town police officer and single dad thinks he’s hearing things when he
opens the charity box door. Who knocks from the inside of a donation bin?
The raccoon he assumes is in there turns out
to be way prettier – and very familiar. Rescuing the first girl he ever kissed
means life has dealt him a wild card with Kylie Hood, his late wife’s best
friend who left town suddenly fifteen years ago under a cloud of scandal.
Kylie
Hood will never depend on a man again. Dumped by her boyfriend and fired by his
parents from her children’s programming job at their ski resort in rural Maine,
she hits rock bottom while throwing out her ex’s clothes — along with her phone
and car keys.
Being rescued by Luke Luview, of all people,
is a gift and a curse. The boy she once loved is now all grown up, everything
her ex wasn’t – and absolutely off limits.
Accepting his offer to be his temporary nanny
while she job searches in New York City, Kylie falls hard for his sweet
daughter, and even harder for Luke. A clause in her employment contract means
they can’t fraternize, but fate has other plans, and forbidden fruit is twice
as sweet.
As the town she reluctantly left years ago
accepts her more and more, and Luke makes it clear he wants ta second chance
with her in their close-knit community, Kylie has to decide: an exciting new
career in Manhattan on her own, or an instant family and a sense of belonging in
her small hometown?
And as Luke wrestles with the pain of being
left behind by his wife’s accidental death, he has to balance his
responsibilities to his daughter with his own needs. Needs he’s ignored for far
too long.
Needs only Kylie can meet.
But not if she
leaves.
Can
Luke and Kylie rekindle their first love and find a new future together in a
place where love conquers all?

Excerpt:
A white puff of air filled the space between him and the steering wheel,
and he realized he’d sighed. How long had he been sitting here, mind and memory
in the past? Shoving his hands into gloves, he opened the rear door, grabbed
the white plastic bag, and made his way to the front of the bin.
Determined, focused, and grim: That was Luke Luview these days. A bad
match for a town that existed to make people feel good about love.
Living in Love You, Maine–heck, being a Luview–was
never harder than when you had a broken heart.
Time to let go of some of the pain.
“AAAAAAooooooooo,” called out a band of coyotes in the distance, making
Luke jolt. His personal weapon was at home. He didn’t carry it in the glove
compartment or on his body when he was off duty, but as the coyote population
grew in the area, maybe he should.
A few feet from the donation bin’s front, he looked at the lever to pull
down, squeezing the bag slightly. A whiff of Amber’s perfume caught his nose,
so faint he almost imagined it.
Colleen had washed all the clothes a few weeks ago, so he knew he
imagined Amber’s scent. Didn’t matter. He’d take the illusion. That was how
much he hurt.
A skitter inside the box made him frown.
Damn animals. They got in those bins all the time. He felt sorry for the
poor sap who emptied these metal boxes, carting all the goods to the warehouse
in Manchester where they cleaned and sorted, getting it all ready for the second-hand
retail stores.
Just do this, he thought, swallowing
hard as the coyotes mated in the distance. The sound was violent and creepy,
but for whatever reason, it felt fitting.
Throwing the tangible reminders of that terrible day into the donation
box felt dangerous, too.
“I love you, Amber,” he murmured. “But I have to let you go. Have to let
that day go. Harriet needs a daddy who isn’t tied down by grief. Just because
I’m doing this doesn’t mean I love you any less, though.”
Tears pricked his eyes. “Why is this so hard? Because it’s hard,” he
said with a huff. “That’s what you would say if you were here. You’d hug me and
comfort me and tell me feelings are meant to be felt or they’d be called
something else. You’d have all the right words. I don’t have any. I just have a
big hole in my life, Amber. And you’re never going to fill it. Colleen says I can’t
feel guilty for moving on. I don’t. But I sure do feel weird.”
And then he reached for the handle, pulled it down, and threw the bag in
while calling out loudly, “I love you.”
To his utter shock, she replied from the darkness of the box, “I’m in
here!”
