How could Dolanβs stupid wink and a barely-there smile send such a scorching blaze through her?Itβs Claire Rayhillβs turn. All her siblings have found true love in Maplehaven. Clearly, sheβs next. Sheβs been on a ton of dates since moving to small-town Vermont, but those guys havenβt given her that forever vibe. None of them have made her feel like she did six years ago on her one and only night with Dolan Fairmont. Her brotherβs sexy bodyguard shifted her world right off its axis. Then he left. Claire has been spinning ever since, but sheβs determined to find a nice guy who wants to make a home with her.
Until Dolan returns with the brick walls around his heart higher than ever. The mere sight of him has insults flying out of Claireβs mouth every time they are in each otherβs company. Which is far too often. His singular focus on his job pisses her off, but the way he tracks her with those serious gray-blue eyes does something else entirely.
Dolan isnβt sure his brick walls will hold now that heβs back in Claireβs orbit. The sass that comes out of her mouth doesnβt affect him half as much as what that same mouth did to him six years ago. Heβs never forgotten the power of her kiss or the fire of her touch, but his line of work is risky. He knows all too well that putting people he loves in danger is always a mistake. Better to not have Claire at all than to lose her.
When Dolan gets hurt, however, Claire surprises them both by volunteering to help. Will she regret that good deed? Will he?
Is one kind home enough to tear down all the walls around their fragile hearts?
One Kind Home is a second-chance, forced-proximity, small-town, contemporary romance with a bodyguard hero and a boudoir photography stylist who might just be picture perfect together.
Of all the ways sheβd pictured spending her thirtieth birthday night, alone hadnβt been one of them.
Well, she hadnβt been completely alone actually. At around 2:00 a.m., a noise outside had made her crawl out of bed. Sheβd shuffled to the sliding doors that opened to a small deck off the back of the cottage. After turning on the floodlight back there, sheβd been greeted by a fox. One with the tip of its left ear missing. It had apparently knocked over a pot of mums she had on a low garden table. Oddly, it hadnβt run off when it noticed her watching. Instead, the fox hopped up onto an Adirondack chair and settled into a tight circle, cat-like, on the flowered seat cushion.
Quietly, Claire had opened the door and slipped outside to sit in the other chair. She sat with the fox for about twenty minutes, the September night air cool, but cleansing somehow. When sheβd bought the pair of Adirondack chairs, sheβd pictured one for the soul mate she was sure to find soon. Sitting there with a wild fox instead seemed silly, but the critter wasnβt half-bad company.
Rubbing her eyes now and focusing back on the ceiling, Claire wondered if that fox was free tonight. Maybe if she kissed him, heβd turn into a prince or something.
Christine DePetrillo can often be found hugging trees, conversing with dragonflies, and walking barefoot through sun-warmed soil. She finds joy in listening to the wind, bathing in moonlight, and breathing in the fragrances of things that bloom. If she had her way, the sky would be the only roof over her head.Her love of nature seeps into every story she tells. As does her obsession with bearded mountain men who build, often smell like sawdust, and know how to cherish the women they love. Today she writes tales meant to make you laugh, maybe make you sweat, and definitely make you believe in the power of love.
She lives in Vermont with her husband and many woodland creatures who defend her fiercely from all evils.
