Ashley believes wartime heroes put service to their country before family, so forgive her if she doesn’t want to set herself up for another heartbreak. Chase is a smokin’ hot, hard-body Marine, and the type she’s sworn to avoid.

Besides, she’s got bigger problems to solve. She’s penniless and has nowhere to turn. She’d determined to figure out her next move before the bank forecloses on her home.

Chase is running from ghosts. He’s just buried his best friend and needs to decide whether to re-up or move on. Elkridge seems as good a place as any to weigh his options. However, the gorgeous woman who’s opened her home to him needs help.

The moody and sensually hot Marine is the last person she wants to rely on, but he’s her only option for survival.

If you love a small town, second-chance romance stories layered with emotion, suspense, and two people willing to risk it all for love, escape to Elkridge, a town filled with everyday heroes, and one who’s hiding a secret. _____________________________________ An award-winning series by Lyz Kelley
