No matter how
deeply buried, secrets rise to the surface.
Scarlett Lindquist has agreed to help her sisters rebuild the
dilapidated fishing lodge in Minnesota they inherited from their grandparents.
Although the lengthy restoration is bringing the three sisters closer together,
Scarlett’s support is temporary. Her leave of absence from her job in Chicago
is temporary and she has no intention of staying at Solace Lake Lodge, where
the lake holds dark secrets. When frightening childhood memories resurface, they
are tempered by her fascination with an irritating contractor. If only she
could trust her feelings for him. If only he could trust her.
Cameron Hainstock meets Scarlett at his brother’s wedding to
her sister and their attraction is instantaneous. But Cam avoids the beautiful
marketing executive. All his efforts are aimed at battling for custody of his
only child. When the unimaginable happens and Cam faces the biggest challenge
of his life, he’s reluctant to accept help to halt his downward spiral. Can they
learn to trust each other and fight for a future together or will they go their
separate ways?

Excerpt:
The shock on Scarlet’s face, the disbelief and grief, made
him wish he’d kept his mouth shut. The last thing he wanted was to inflict her
with the same hell he was going through. He turned away from her, pushing her
hand from his arm. “Go home, Scarlet.”
“I’m not going anywhere.” She grabbed his arm again,
preventing him from picking up the axe, the tool he’d used to keep himself from
reaching for a bottle. “I won’t leave you alone.”
Ignoring the sweat and dirt, she wrapped her arms around his
waist and held him tightly, resting her head against his chest. His body
stirred to life at her touch, disgusting him. His world was crumbling around
him and all he could think was that he wanted to bury himself inside her until
she screamed his name.
“Go,” he said roughly. If she was smart, she’d run away and
never look back. He was a bad-tempered, recovering alcoholic with nothing to
offer her. He wasn’t worth the risk.
She looked up at him, her blue eyes clear and steady. “No. I
won’t leave you.”
He pushed her up against the wall of the workshop, not sure
if he was trying scare her away or make her stay. “I don’t want to hurt you.”
She shook her head. “You won’t.”
Cam closed his eyes and groaned. He wrapped his arms around
her in a vice-like grip, unable to resist her any longer.
God, he needed her.
He lowered his head and kissed her. There was no subtlety in
the kiss, no gentleness or finesse. Only passion and raw need. But she stayed
with him, returning his passion, giving solace. He greedily lapped it up,
taking everything she had to give.
But he wanted, needed more. He lifted her and she wrapped her
long, slender legs around his waist. He buried his face against her soft,
sweet-smelling neck, inhaling her clean, floral scent. At the same time, he
snaked his hand up her thigh and began to pull down her panties.
“Tell me to stop,” he rasped. “Tell me now while I still
can.”

Series Blurb:
Love is worth the risk…
When their grandfather dies, the Lindquist sisters, Harper,
Scarlet and Maggie, inherit the northern Minnesota fishing lodge that had been
in their family for three generations. The inheritance is bittersweet. They
were raised at the lodge by their grandparents. The natural beauty of the place
hasn’t changed, but the building itself is crumbling and desperately in need of
repair. The lodge also reminds them of what they lost. Twenty-two years
previously, their parents died there in what was ruled a murder/suicide.
As the sisters struggle to breathe new life into the failing
lodge, old fears and questions rise to the surface even as new love presents
itself. Why did their father murder their mother? What truths did their
grandparents keep from them? The sisters must fight to keep the wounds of the
past from putting their futures, and their fledgling relationships, in
jeopardy.

About Jana Richards:
When Jana Richards read her first romance novel, she
immediately knew two things: she had to commit the stories running through her
head to paper, and they had to end with a happily ever after. She also knew
she’d found what she was meant to do. Since then she’s never met a romance
genre she didn’t like. She writes contemporary romance, romantic suspense, and
historical romance set in World War Two, in lengths ranging from short story to
full length novel. Just for fun, she throws in generous helpings of humor, and
the occasional dash of the paranormal. Her paranormal romantic suspense “Seeing
Things” was a 2008 EPPIE finalist.
In her life away from writing, Jana is an accountant/admin
assistant, a mother to two grown daughters, and a wife to her husband Warren.
She enjoys golf, yoga, movies, concerts, travel and reading, not necessarily in
that order. She and her husband live in Winnipeg, Canada with their Pug/Terrier
cross Lou and several unnamed goldfish. She loves to hear from readers and can
be reached through her website at www.janarichards.com
