Sheriff Jonas Taggert needs a helping hand with his daughter and Rissa Matthews and her Goth-dressing teen are definitely not it. He can't afford to fall for a woman who doesn't plan to stick around, much less one who can't control her own kid. But the girls become friends and Jonas' perspective takes a hard hit.

About the Author

Kay Lyons always wanted to be a writer, ever since the age of seven or eight when she copied the pictures out of a Charlie Brown book and rewrote the story because she didn’t like the plot. Through the years her stories have changed but one characteristic stayed true—they were all romances. Each and every one of her manuscripts included a love story.Published in 2005 with Harlequin Enterprises, Kay’s first romance hit #7 on the bestseller list. Kay's books are known for their heartfelt and emotional storytelling, focusing on themes of love, redemption, and personal growth. Her novels feature well-developed characters who navigate through life's challenges, finding love and new beginnings along the way. Set in charming small-town environments from mountains to beaches, her stories are filled with warmth, friendships, family dynamics, and a strong sense of community. Kay's writing is appreciated for its depth, relatable characters, and the emotional journeys her protagonists undergo. Her books are a blend of sweet and swoony romance that resonate with readers.Kay is a member of Alliance of Independent Authors, Authors Guild, Novelists Inc, and other writing groups, as well as a Jeep fan and member of numerous Jeep clubs even though she drives a "pavement princess."For more information regarding her work, please find her on social media:PinterestKay Lyons' Facebook Author PageTiktokInstagram

Ok read.

For me this was just an ok read. The situations were laced with realism, showing how much pressure there is on teens whether it’s peer pressure or perceived pressure. However it bothered me how most of the characters, kids included, behaved.

a good quick read

Some deeply dark issues for young teens with out of focus single parents. Calamity after calamity ensues, love and forgiveness solves all. A clean read, enjoyable, but it’s topics aren’t always nice.
