What Makes Us Stronger (A Well Paired Novel Book 3)
by Marianne Rice
Lily Novak's life in Crystal Cove, Maine is just about perfect. She has a great group of friends, runs a successful day spa, and has managed to build her new life without anyone asking about her mysterious past. There's nothing more she could want…except maybe to catch the eye of the gorgeous and introverted carpenter, who also happens to be her friend's brother.Ty Parker knew fear in the Army, but nothing like the panic of seeing smoke billow from Lily's building. When a dryer fire brings him face to face with the heart-stopping Lily Novak—and her lacy black thong—he can't deny the chemistry sparking between them. As their feelings deepen, Lily's evasiveness reignites the self-doubt Ty has been battling for years. Lily knows her secrets are putting her relationship with Ty at risk, but telling him the truth puts both their lives in danger. She's just not sure she's strong enough to sacrifice her heart to keep the man she loves safe from the secrets of her past.
