Burned

Behind every stubborn man’s downfall
(into love) is a determined woman.Whispering Cove, Book 4
Vic Hayes is content with life in Whispering Cove. She owns a successful salon,
has great friends and her perfectly manicured nail is on the pulse of the
town’s gossip. For real happiness, she’s only missing one thing—a man. Settling
for less than the perfect man, though, isn’t in her nature. He just has to see
her as more than his best friend.
Widower Hauk Michaelsen always dreamed of escaping Whispering Cove, until
single fatherhood, too young, made it impossible. He enjoys his life as owner
of the small town pub. Friends, gossip, and his young daughter keep things
jumping. He would do anything for his little girl, but he can’t give her the
one thing she desires most—a mother.
When Vic and Hauk are teamed up for a Fall Festival project, sparks ignite
suppressed flames. Testing boundaries they’ve never crossed, they find
themselves eager to risk more—if Vic can convince Hauk that history won’t be
repeated if he takes another chance on love.
