Warm Springs Trilogy #1
By- Christina Kirby
Genre- Romantic Suspense
Synopsis
Driven by fear and desperate to protect her family, Samantha is forced to leave Chicago and everything she’s worked to achieve, only to start over by tossing a dart-at-the-map. The Georgia townsfolk’s true Southern charm is the unexpected prescription needed to heal her soul, and the sexy carpenter who touches her heart are distractions she didn’t plan on, but they might offer her a chance at a new life, if she can let go of her past.
Town heartbreaker, Spencer Malloy, isn’t looking for anything serious. His days are perfect working as a contractor, attending his nephew’s baseball games or taking him fishing. He never expects to fall for the big city girl, Samantha. She’s not his type, timid and closed off, but in her unguarded moments, he’s intrigued by the woman he can’t get out of his mind. The urge to get closer to her grows stronger each day, and when the shadow of evil resurfaces, he vows to protect Samantha, even if it means abandoning his home and joining her on the run.
When confronted by the man who’s bent on revenge, Samantha must choose between running again to save the people she loves, or if she has the strength, to stay and fight for her new life.
Excerpt
As night descended over the party, the guests ate, first dances were danced, and Adam did his best to focus on anything and anyone other than Jenny. Avery moved past him as Nick led her in a slow dance.
“They look good together.” Jenny’s soft voice was like music.
Adam didn’t take his eyes off of his sister. It was easier that way.
“I’m glad she found someone to hang out with other than me. I’m not very good company tonight.” His stomach twisted into a knot as she sat next to him.
“Why not? It’s a party. You should be dancing.” She touched his arm and it was more than he could stand. “You’re a big reason the day turned out as perfectly as it did. Sam keeps calling you her hero.”
“Oh, geez.”
Jenny laughed and instead of the sound lifting his spirits, it tortured him further. “Don’t worry, I think she’s partially doing it to drive Spencer crazy.”
The corner of Adam’s mouth twitched and he made the mistake of looking at her. Up close, he could see the different shades of blue in her eyes, light on the outside and darker in the center. They reflected the different layers of the complicated woman before him.
“Dance with me.” His command was quiet, but powerful.
Her eyes darted to where James stood talking on his cell phone. “I don’t know if that’s a good idea.”
“Dance with me anyway.”
