Alternate cover edition of ASIN B00XM886LW Henry and Lindsay have both been burned in love, and a no-strings-attached fling is the perfect balm… but what happens when the attraction refuses to fade? Lindsay Miller has sworn off men until her son is old enough not to be hurt when her relationships fail. But a casual romp with willing cowboy Henry Hammond on her kid-free vacation to see her best friend married off isn’t out of the question. And Henry has ideas about how to remind her that she’s more than a tired, struggling single mother. Crushed after learning that his son isn’t his, Henry is drowning his sorrows when Lindsay boldly introduces herself. They hatch a plan to show each other a good time—one week of heart-soothing fun, then back to their separate lives. Stubbornly independent but vulnerable, Lindsay is an intoxicating breath of fresh air, and even after she’s gone, Henry can’t get her out of his heart. This could be the real deal, but can he prove that she and her son are more than a rebound family for him? A NOTE ON THE CONTENT: The NORTHSTAR ROMANCES are contemporary romances and contain sensual scenes and mild profanity that may be unsuitable for sensitive readers.
Author
Suzie O'Connell grew up in a small town on the Kitsap Peninsula in Western Washington, but has called the mountains and valleys of Western Montana home for well over a decade. She has been writing stories since she was old enough to know how (the first she can recall was penciled in the second grade, about the mouse who went to the sea) and completed her first novel, Summer Angel, before she graduated from high school. After high school, tired of the endless rain, she attended college at the University of Montana-Western and graduated in 2005 with a Bachelor of Arts in Literature and Writing. She is currently working on a Masters of Education and teaches high school English. Suzie considers herself to be a rather quirky individual with ecclectic tastes in music, movies and books. She listens to just about anything, including pop, rock, country and techno and her favorite movies range from Grumpy Old Men to Lord of the Rings to Moulin Rouge to Pirates of the Caribbean. When it comes to reading, she prefers fantasy, science fiction, romance and literary fiction. She firmly believes it's healthy to laugh at yourself, that best friends are worth far more than their weight in gold, and that home truly is where the heart is. When she isn't writing, teaching or studying, Suzie enjoys playing in the mountains with her husband Mark, their daughter Maddie and their energetic golden retriever Reilly. She is also a hobby photographer, specializing in landscapes.
