And while she’s killing it flipping houses for a living, deep down she worries her happiness isn’t built on a strong foundation. So when her drunk boyfriend attempts to beat her, she jumps in her truck and drives until fate delivers her to a tiny town, a dilapidated Victorian, and her next big project. River Lockwood remains haunted. Still burning with regret over the one that got away, the master electrician has constructed a lonely life in a place with a name drenched in personal history. But when he offers to help rewire an old house a newcomer just purchased, he’s amazed it’s the woman he lost all those years ago. Shaken to reconnect with the only man she truly loved, Hope struggles with the memory of his betrayal. And though they grow closer the more time they spend together, River fears his dream girl won’t forgive him for a sin he didn’t actually commit. Can this star-crossed couple renovate their hearts and build the relationship they deserve? Hope’s River is the charming first tale in the Hope River contemporary romance series.

NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLING AUTHOR OF UGLY AND MISTRUST **Write something worth reading** I'm Margaret and I'm a self-published author. Recently I was fortunate in obtaining New York Times best selling status on my YA/NA book - Ugly, and my YA book - Mistrust. ​ My last three books have been YA and I'm completely in love with the genre. I love being able to communicate with people through my words and stories. ​ My writing genres all differ, but the one thing I keep consistent is my heroines. All my female lead characters are strong, gutsy and not the 'perfect' woman. While my books all have romantic elements in them, they aren't just about the romance. They're about finding strength, acceptance and making life long connections. ​ I hope you enjoy my stories as much as I have while writing them.
