Love Between Friends

2020

Liam Olson leaving fast-paced L.A. life and returning to the tiny town of Silver Plum is big news. After all, with his charm and good looks he is quite the catch. Not that he has any interest in a relationship right now. He would much rather take some time and reconnect with his childhood best friend. Liam and Tory Hall friend-zoned each other years ago. And that’s a good thing, or he may have never found a way past the icy facade she hides behind. While brilliant and beautiful, Tory’s ruthless business practices have made her both revered and feared by Silver Plum’s farmers and ranchers. Neither Liam and Tory were looking for anything more than a friend. Yet as they’re thrown together in a fight to protect the town’s water rights, they find themselves battling an undeniable attraction. Will the Ice Queen keep her potential flame at arms’ length? Or will Liam find a way to melt her heart? From author Deb Goodman comes a Christian romance filled with small town charm, laugh-out loud moments, and the healing power of faith.

And despite both of them needing to move on, they find themselves learning more about each other’s wounds and wanting to open up their hearts once more.
