A simple clerical mixup over similar names or something much more sinister? Taylor "Sam" John isn't so sure. Years ago, she escaped a hellish marriage by joining the U.S. Navy. Suddenly, her past seems to be popping up everywhere. At the center of it all is a shy, charming guy named Sam Taylor. Is he the cause of the unrest in her life or a welcome port in the storm? Authors note: This novella may be read as a standalone, but it is best understood if read after Hearts of Jade and before Love is More Than Skin Deep.
Author

Mary Crawford has been lucky enough to live her own version of a romance novel. She’s married to the guy who kissed her at summer camp. He told her on the night they met that he was going to marry her and be the father of their children. Eventually, she stopped giggling when he said it and he had the last laugh as they celebrate three decades of marriage. They have two children. The oldest is a Doctor of Osteopathy. He is across the United States completing his residency, but when he’s done, he is going to come back to Oregon and practice Family Medicine. Their youngest son is in high school and hopes to be an EMT when he grows up. Mrs. Crawford writes full time now. She has written and published over thirty books and has several more underway. She volunteers her time to a variety of causes and has worked as a Civil Rights Attorney and diversity advocate. Mrs. Crawford spent many years working for various social service agencies before becoming an attorney. In her spare time, she loves to cook, decorate cakes and of course, obsessively, compulsively read.
