Sally Brooks is feeling somber about her life as those around her find love. She wants to have a boyfriend or two, wants someone to hold her, make her feel loved and protected. The two men she finds irresistibly attractive are ex-military brothers Mason and Steven Marcus. But they avoid her even when she makes an effort to flirt. Fed up and overwhelmed, Sally accepts a date with Garret Walters. He's a good-looking cowboy with money and attitude. Accepting his date turns into a horrible experience. Garret and his friend Keiffer had plans to abduct Sally. It takes this incident, and the fact that Garret still wants to pursue Sally, to get Mason and Steven to open up about their feelings for her. Steven and Mason are double trouble in Sally's eyes, and they ignored her this entire time, so why should she give them a chance now when she feels like nothing more than a damsel in distress? Note: There is no sexual relationship or touching for titillation between or among siblings.

People seem to be more interested in my name than where I get my ideas for my stories from. So I might as well share the story behind my name with all my readers. My momma was born and raised in New Orleans. At the age of twenty, she met and fell in love with an Irishman named Patrick Riley Dwyer. Needless to say, the family was a bit taken aback by this as they hoped she would marry a family friend. It was a modern day arranged marriage kind of thing and my momma downright refused. Being that my momma’s families were descendents of the original English speaking southerners, they wanted the family blood line to stay pure. They were wealthy and my father’s family was poor. Despite attempts by my grandpapa to make Patrick leave and destroy the love between them, my parents married. They recently celebrated their sixtieth wedding anniversary. I am one of six children born to Patrick and Lynn Dwyer. I am a combination of both Irish and a true southern belle. With a name like Dixie Lynn Dwyer it’s no wonder why people are curious about my name. Just as my parents had a love story of their own, I grew up intrigued by the lifestyles of others. My imagination as well as my need to stray from the straight and narrow made me into the woman I am today.
