- & each other. They
Single mom Eden Harwood has a lively daughter, a blooming business-and a juicy secret she's hung on to for ten years. She doesn't mind a bit that there's no room for romance in her whirlwind life... until six-foot-infinity, smoldery-eyed, bass-voiced Gabe Caldera reminds her of what she might be missing. The principal of Hellcat Elementary is usually knee-deep in fawning PTA moms, but Gabe only has eyes for the fiery, funny, skittish redhead who barely knows he's alive. But this ex-Navy SEAL never fails to get what he wants. & what he wants is to fan those sparks between him & Eden into the kind of bonfire you can see two counties away. The passion is explosive... & the tenderness has them thinking about forever. But when Eden's past waltzes into town for a reckoning, her secret blows them apart. Still, Gabe will never back down from a fight... especially if the ultimate prize is Eden's heart. Julie Anne Long's writing glows with emotional intensity. -New York Times Bestselling Author Jayne Anne Krentz
