Book description
Life was always been just about perfect for Brooke Madison Burke. She
was the prettiest, most popular girl in small-town St Dennis,
Maryland, a prom queen, local pageant star, and the pride and joy of
her loving parents. She even married the man of her dreams. But the
promise of happily ever after fell to pieces when her husband was
killed while serving in Iraq. Broken-hearted and longing for the
solace of better days, she returns to the idyllic world of St Dennis
and the familiar comfort of the family farm. Surrounded by her loving
family and friends, she's determined to build a new life, complete
with her own cupcake bakery. She's equally determined never to fall in
love again.
For Jesse Enright, life has been a challenge. A fourth-generation
attorney, he's spent his life fighting to escape the shadow of his
irresponsible father. Now he's moved to St Dennis to run the family
law practice, and he's ready to find the right girl, get married and
settle down. But his carefully laid plans go out the window when he
meets Brooke and finds himself caught between the unbreakable law of
attraction and Brooke's resolve to go her way alone - despite the
undeniable feelings Jesse stirs in her. But just like catching
lightning in a bottle, is it possible to fall head-over-heels,
heart-and-soul in love all over again?
