Can her love mend the Navy SEAL's heart? Sara Wilson is struggling to raise her son as a widow. Everything she does isn’t good enough. She’s been floundering for three years and doubts she has the strength to turn things around. When the library she owns is on the cusp of losing its funding, she turns to the only person she can think of, her late husband’s best friend, Grant Edwards. Navy SEAL Grant Edwards is back in Hidden Hollows on temporary leave with one mission: to persuade his mother to enter a treatment program for her depression. She’s stubborn and convinced she doesn’t need help. Every day she refuses is another day Grant lives in painful memories of his past. So when Sara asks for his help, he agrees. He needs a distraction—even if it’s wrangling five-year-olds in an after school library program. No amount of military training could have prepared him for the tasks Sara give him. Living as a civilian isn’t something he knows how to do. Especially when his feelings start to change and the last thing Grant can imagine doing is leave Sara and her son. But how can he stay in Hidden Hollows when he’s already so broken? She deserves better than what he can offer. If he loves her, he’ll stay away. She’d fixed him once, it wasn’t fair to ask her to do it again.
