Her heart is in his hands.
After her marriage ends in betrayal, Eleanora Howard finds herself struggling to navigate the dating scene as a thirty-one-year-old divorcee. Living alone in the house she once shared with her ex and feeling undesirable beside her younger coworkers is hardly the recipe for finding new love--until she meets Rob. He's just the kind of charming, old-fashioned guy she needs--but he's also eager for intimacy.
After serving in the Air Force and landing a well-paid civilian job, Rob Vanderhoff planned to settle down with the right woman and raise a family. But at thirty-six, he's still single and searching--until he meets Eleanora. She's everything he wants. All he has to do is draw her out of her shell. Soon he's taking her on the kind of dates she dreamed about as a teenager, fanning the flames of her desire--and helping Nora rediscover the sexy, adventurous woman they both know she really is.
Content warning: This is a steamy small-town romance. Clothes will come off. Satisfaction will be found. Declarations of love will be made. And there just might be a cuss word or five.
