He didn’t think he was the kind to settle down, and certainly not in a place like Summer Lake.
But he loves his new job, he loves his new house—even if it doesn’t feel like home yet.
He’s not looking for a woman to love, but he’s open to dating.
Abbie’s not proud of the way she’s lived her life but she’s trying to make up for it.
She’s back at the lake to help her mom after her dad passed away.
She’s ready to settle down; all she needs is a suitable guy.
Ivan’s gorgeous. As an added bonus he’s kind and caring, too.
But she’s had her fair share of sexy, unsuitable men.
She thinks he’s not what she needs. He discovers she’s everything he wants.
But will Abbie’s insistence on making amends for the past mean they can never have a future together?
Hi, I'm SJ, a coffee addict, lover of chocolate and drinker of good red wines. I'm a lost soul and a hopeless romantic. Reading and writing are necessary parts of who I am. Though perhaps not as necessary as coffee! I can drink coffee without writing, but I can't write without coffee.
I grew up loving romance novels, my first boyfriends were book boyfriends, but life intervened, as it tends to do, and I wandered down the paths of non fiction for many years. My life changed completely a couple of years ago and I returned to Romance to find my escape.
I write 'Sweet N Steamy' stories because to me there is enough angst and darkness in real life. My favorite romances are happy escapes with a focus on fun, friendships and happily-ever-afters, just like the ones I write.
These days I live in beautiful Montana, the last best place. If I'm not reading or writing you'll find me just down the road in the park - Yellowstone. I have deer, eagles and the occasional bear for company, and I like it that way :0)
