Book Two in The Maple Leaf Series
Sage Stannard is grumpy. Having just attended her cousin's wedding in California, she's at her limit for watching happy couples stare dreamily at one another. She's never had anything but quick romps back home in Vermont that always turn out to be mistakes. Big ones. Maybe moving out of her mother's house and taking a stab at online dating will add a little excitement to this caterer's stale life. Maybe it'll bring more disappointment. Who knows?
Chainsaw artist Orion Finley is on a mission to get his daughter, Myah, back from his ruthless ex-wife. Only trouble is his ex-wife is a crafty lawyer with connections—ones that give her the upper hand. She even managed to get custody of his dog, Ranger, just to drive the stake deeper into his heart. His father always told him women were poison, especially the pretty ones. Why hadn't he listened? Well, he was listening now.
When Sage and Orion meet over a bloody couch, the gates are opened to a path neither of them is quite ready to travel on. Will they stumble? Will it be all uphill? Or will the end of the path be just the new beginning they need?
