Book Description

____________________

PART 2 OVERVIEW: 


Chelsea Winters finds the love of her life in a small Virginia town after running from heartache in Washington, D.C. Not only is Logan Wilde handsome, sexy and kind, he's also wealthy. And, he wants to marry her and have her by his side at the family enterprise, which consists of most of the businesses in Whisper Creek and the surrounding areas.

But Chelsea is in the beginning stages of opening her new real estate office. Will Logan’s reigns -- and wealth -- pull her too tight as she tries to regain her independence? Or will the neglect of her own company be too high of a price to pay to be his wife?

The solution for Logan may be Lisa Webb, the new executive chosen to help manage Wilde Enterprises. But Lisa has ideas of her own since Logan’s fiancĂ© is too busy to be at his side.

Will jealousy push Chelsea to forge a new bond with the handsome Ryan Colby, a decorated war veteran who has wanted her since the day he laid eyes on her in the neighboring Dakota Village? Back from his last tour of duty, Ryan craves Chelsea in his life -- and in his bed. And, he’ll stop at nothing to have her.

Will buried family secrets about Logan’s half-brother, Hatcher, and the disappearance of Logan’s mother, reveal themselves in time to bring Logan and Chelsea back together -- or will the truth tear them apart forever?

LOVING LOGAN Series Introduction 


It's the holiday season, one week before Thanksgiving, and Chelsea Winters is moving from the hustle and bustle of Washington, D.C. to Whisper Creek, a small Virginia town on the outskirts of Norfolk. Taking a detour in her career, she gets a waitressing job at the town's local diner to help make ends meet as she licks her wounds and starts over.

Chelsea doesn't expect to meet Logan Wilde, the handsome, sexy businessman who owns the diner and most of the small businesses in the area, including the largest paper mill on the East Coast. Logan is also the owner of the cottage she's renting on Arbor Lane. Chelsea knows getting involved with her landlord and her boss -- especially after what happened in D.C. -- might not be a good idea.
_____

Logan knows there's more to Chelsea Winters than meets the eye. He wanted her the second he saw her curvy, petite frame peering into his diner window early one morning before dawn. Beautiful, smart, fiery, she reminds him of his mother, his father's mistress, who he believes abandoned him as a child to escape small-town living for the big city.

What's a big city girl doing in a small town like Whisper Creek? Logan wonders what Chelsea's running from in D.C., and how long she plans to stay in Whisper Creek. He wants her in his world -- and it has nothing to do with her working in his diner.

The For Richer For Poorer Romance Series (See Parts 1 and 2 on Amazon and Barnes & Noble)



INTRODUCTION:

Hamilton Steele, a sexy real estate developer, was looking for love in Harper's Grove, a sleepy town on the outskirts of Atlanta. A downward spiral of the housing market, and a twist of fate, landed him back in the handyman occupation he thought he'd seen the last of -- and onto the steps of Miranda Colbert. 

Miranda's heart was closed to anything resembling love, especially after her last fiasco of a relationship. The only thing on her mind was getting Colbert and Company back on its feet and getting the little bungalow falling down around her up to par -- until she opened the door to her new handyman. 

EXCERPT:

"Hi, ma'am," he said in a sexy voice with a slight southern twang. "I'm Hamilton. Hamilton Steele." She was a beautiful woman. A perfume he couldn't quite place teased his senses. Hamilton reached out to shake her hand. Dainty, soft. He knew if he squeezed too hard he would hurt her. His eyes lingered on the small, delicate features of her caramel-colored face. The fullness of her lips were irresistible, and the slender, silver chain around her neck traveled down to a pert bosom that was void of a brassiere. Something about her, almost like a magnet, made him want to pull her into his arms and ravish her with his lips. 

Miranda's heart raced as she surveyed the creature in front of her. Jeans, white t-shirt, and construction boots were made for men like the one standing on her porch. Sexiness oozed from him as he stood there, devouring her with his eyes.

I hope your year is off to a GREAT start!

I hope your year is off to a GREAT start. I'm writing, writing, writing. Two books slated to come out this month. I'm happy to say the romance book mini series have struck a nerve with readers. Glad you're enjoying them -- and I'm pleased the book lengths are fitting your lifestyle. 

I'm in Negril until June. Went to Atlanta for the holidays, after the Reggae Marathon.  (https://www.facebook.com/cassandrablackauthor). It's nice to be back in the Caribbean, and I look forward to being in one spot for a bit, you know. Heading to St. Croix end of June to see what it's all about. Goal is to compare living in a U.S. territory to living in Jamaica. Can't wait to finally visit the US Virgin Islands. I hear the area is simply gorgeous! 

Enjoy the rest of your week, and, as always, thank you for stopping by my blog.
