SHELTERING LAWSON IS RELEASED!!

OUT NOW!

The last Resisting the Fall novel in my on-going Hope Parish world. Ethan knows there's something wrong with pretty new waitress Lawson Edwards, but gaining her trust enough for her to spill the details was an excuse for getting close to this beauty. She was running on empty, her car, her body, her motivation. Ethan wasn't going to give up without a fight, but he'd have to be careful not to spook her. If she disappeared...there would be no way to help her...or to hold her forever.

Description:

Lawson Edwards has been running for so long, she can’t remember what it’s like to have a normal life. Destitute, living in her car, this former stripper hits Suttontowne and lands a job as a waitress at Outlaws. It’s only temporary until she gets enough cash to run again. Staying in one place too long wasn’t safe. But when Ethan Fairchild finds her after she faints from hunger, she just can’t shake him. He’s solid and strong, caring and protective. But Lawson cannot and will not involve him in her problems. There can be no happily ever after for her in his arms.

Ethan Fairchild ran off after a nasty fight with his preacher father who wanted Ethan to follow in his footsteps. It wasn’t what he wanted and the expectations for Ethan’s future were too much. Ethan joined the Marines and after his discharge returned back to his father and Suttontowne. Now he’s busy partnering with Chase Sutton on his Bait and Tackle business and still bartending for Outlaws. When he finds Lawson on the ground outside of Outlaw’s, he helps her and his sixth sense tells him that she’s in trouble. It isn’t until he learns of her current desperate circumstances that he realizes what kind of trouble. He wants to help her, but his heart has different plans when it tumbles for her. Will she trust him and make a stand—with him or flee and break his heart?

COVER REVEAL SQUEE!: SHELTERING LAWSON!

SHELTERING LAWSON, a contemporary romance by ZOE, releasing January 23, 2017 and is the third book in the Resisting the Fall series, part of my Hope Parish Novels.

Ethan had no idea why Lawson Edwards was so guarded or why she looked like she was running. But he knew about running away from something: like a preacher father who didn't want to take no for an answer. Ever since he'd gotten out of the Marines, he'd drifted. But when Lawson comes into town for a temporary stay, he knows she's in trouble. His warrior instincts kick in and all he wants to do is shelter her. But this damsel in distress has to stop putting up walls and running long enough to see that Ethan and Suttontowne are her haven...and maybe something permanent if she could be brave enough to stand and fight.

LEAVING YESTERDAY

If you love Susan Mallery, Kristan Higgins, or Rachel Gibson, don’t miss the start of this captivating small-town romance series! Laurel Falls, Montana, features spectacular mountain scenery—but it takes a rugged cowboy to convince one woman to slow down and enjoy the view.

Rafferty Hamilton doesn’t plan on putting down roots anytime soon. With her divorce final, the hotel heiress has left Manhattan behind to scout new locations for her family’s chain of resorts. Which is why it’s so frustrating to be stranded in Laurel Falls while a good-looking, slow-talking, Stetson-wearing mechanic takes his sweet time with her overheated coupe.

A decorated vet who paid his dues in Afghanistan, Trace Black can fix anything with an engine and get it revving—even Rafferty’s ridiculous sports car. He couldn’t say the same for the knockout driver, who looks like she’s never gripped a gear shaft in her life. Women like Rafferty don’t usually stick around in Laurel Falls, but Trace finds himself showing her everything his hometown has to offer before she cruises on down the road.

As the days pass, Rafferty finds herself charmed by the pace of life and the openhearted warmth of the residents. She’s even tempted to trust again—and it’s all thanks to Trace. He’s not the kind of guy she’s used to falling for, but he just might be the man she needs.
