Constable Kendra Givens isn’t impressed when she’s called to Jake Symonds’s pub for a break-and-enter. It’s the end of a long shift, and he’s been a pain in her neck since the night they met, when she arrested him for drunk and disorderly. But Jake’s a different guy than she remembers—he’s shed the bad-boy act but kept the good looks and charm. And when he offers to cook her breakfast, she’s a goner. Jake knows he and Kendra got off on the wrong foot two years ago, but he’s not the same guy. As an ex-soldier, he’s dealt with a lot of his issues and is on the straight and narrow…for the most part. The sexy RCMP officer really rings his bell, and after a couple of dates it’s clear the attraction’s mutual. But can they move past their emotional baggage to make this more than a summer fling?
Author

While bestselling author Donna Alward was busy studying Austen, Eliot and Shakespeare, she was also losing herself in the breathtaking stories created by romance novelists like LaVyrle Spencer, Judith McNaught, and Nora Roberts. Several years after completing her degree she decided to write a romance of her own and it was true love! Five years and ten manuscripts later she sold her first book and launched a new career. While her heartwarming stories of love, hope, and homecoming have been translated into several languages, hit bestseller lists and won awards, her very favorite thing is when she hears from happy readers. Donna lives on Canada’s east coast. When she’s not writing she enjoys reading (of course!), knitting, gardening, cooking…and is a Masterpiece addict.
