About this ebook

Leah Darlington believes in safe and practical. At forty-one, she doesn’t subscribe to taking risks—in life or in love. She did that once years ago and ended up a single mother. Not happening again, and that’s why she’s decided it’s better to be the friend, sister, daughter, and mother who cheers others on, lends a hand or shoulder, and encourages people to never give up.

But the whole risk-avoidance strategy she’s employed for herself changes when a stranger ventures into Magdalena. Mitchell Stafford captivates her with his cultured voice, commonsense logic, and love of nature, cooking, and easy conversation. Leah doesn’t want to believe she’s found a kindred spirit, much less a soulmate in Mitch, but what else could it be?

Mitch Stafford is in Magdalena to honor his friend’s dying wish, one that includes Leah Darlington. For a no-nonsense architect more comfortable with designs than emotion, he doesn’t expect the spark of attraction when he meets the beautiful, down-to-earth woman with the engaging smile. But it’s there and the longer he’s around her, the more difficult it is to ignore or deny. So how is he going to honor his best friend’s dying wish without betraying the woman who might just own his heart?

About the author

Author, Mary Campisi announces the release of her 50th published novel. A Family Affair: The Invitation is Book #22 in her Truth in Lies series which takes place in the fictional small town of Magdalena, NY. Many of Mary’s readers have told her it is a town they would love to live in. The series starts when Christine Blacksworth’s larger-than-life father is killed on an icy road in Magdalena, a hundred miles from the “getaway” cabin he visited every month. Christine discovers a secret that threatens everything she’s always held to be true—her father has another family which includes a mistress and a daughter. This shocking discovery makes her wonder which “family” her father considered his “real” one.

Mary writes about subjects close to her heart: hope, redemption, forgiveness and second chances. Growing up in a small town in western Pennsylvania, Mary has a real-life understanding of life in towns like Magdalena, NY. Many people know who you are, who you are dating or married to, who you are related to, and even some stories of your life. Mary has loved writing since she was a child and created different endings to all of the books she read.

When there is time between books, Mary loves gardening, cooking, reading, following the lives of her adult children and grandchildren, walking her rescue lab mix, Henry, and, on the perfect day, riding off into the sunset with her very own hero/husband on his Ultra Limited aka Harley.
