Still recovering from a nasty divorce, Alice Mackenzie has returned home to San Diego to try and pick up the pieces of her life. The time away underscored for the divorcee how much has changed since she left, and how she herself has changed from the carefree young girl that used to roam the shores of the beaches. But a chance meeting with a former neighbor who still remembers her very well leads to a welcome home she never expected. James “Dickie” Hardgrove grew up next to Alice and had a crush on the older girl that lasted long after she left the seaside town for almost fifteen years. They’ve both grown up since their last meeting: Alice is afraid she’s lost the vibrancy she once had forever, but James still sees the beautiful girl he never forgot, and will do whatever it takes for her to see it too.

Sara Fawkes has always loved spinning tales, but her romantic roots come from sneaking her mother's old Johanna Lindsay books from the dresser drawer. She's been writing stories since she was a little girl (and has the home made books from preschool to prove it), and loves creating stories and characters and interesting messes for them to get into. An avid traveler and adventure motorcyclist, her dream job includes selling everything off and leaving civilization to see the world on two wheels, writing in cafes in each country she visits, and living off her writing. In the meantime however, she lives in California with her menagerie of pets and, when not writing, loves to rebuild old motorcycles/cars with her Dude and plays with the characters in her head. You can find her online talking about whatever strikes her fancy at: http://www.sara-fawkes.com Twitter @SaraFawkes Facebook http://www.facebook.com/SaraFawkesAuthor
