\New cover Edition ASIN: B06XXKDPRJ\ The last thing Cinnamon Mabel Dalton thought she would inherit from her grandmother was two-hundred-pounds of slobbering Saint Bernard. At twenty-seven, Cinn was an experienced jazz artist, but an inexperienced pet owner. Dr. Foster Kern, the veterinarian and director of the Little Ivywood Humane Society, was regaled with stories of the infamous Cinn Dalton for years. None of them prepared him to meet her face-to-face. Smitten by Cinn’s exotic looks, Foster jumps at the chance to answer her questions about caring for her new charge. When her grandmother’s legacy comes under attack, Foster and Cinn team up to find out who’s behind the vandalism. Determined to protect her heart, Cinn hides her secrets from the man she’s falling fast for, until fate unwittingly reveals the truth. Now she has two choices; trust her heart to Foster or run away from her true inheritance, the love of a lifetime.

Tabitha Dalton spent three years making amends to the community of Little Ivywood for her past transgressions, but those three years taught her making amends to her family would be impossible. Knowing she would never be good enough for them kept the heavy cloak of guilt and shame firmly around her shoulders, no matter how hard she tried to shed it. Detective Noah Jonas made everything look easy, but the truth he hid was proof his life was anything but. When he first met Tabitha Dalton in his interrogation room, he immediately saw her for what she was—scared, sad, and beautifully broken. It was the rest of what he saw in her eyes that made him want to bare his soul to her. When a woman goes missing in Little Ivywood, Noah asks Tabitha to use her psychic abilities to help them locate her before it’s too late. In return, Tabitha asks Noah to heal her heart, so she can see her own future again. Lies and discontent strip the Dalton family to the bone, but with Tabitha’s forgiveness and Noah’s determination, will the family find a way to accept love, welcome the light, and embrace life again, together?
