Excerpt
Rusty reached for the doorbell, but stopped when he heard a commotion across the street. He backed up and glanced down a couple houses. A lady stood with her arms folded, staring at two other ladies storming off.
He went to the sidewalk. “Is everything okay?”
The lady turned to him and shook her head. “Never cross the Calloways.”
Rusty tilted his head. “Who?”
She threw her arms in the air. “Be glad you don’t know.” She climbed into a car and sped off, peeling the tires.
“Okay…” Rusty went back to his sister’s door.
Yelling sounded from inside. It sounded like his brother-in-law. Rusty recognized his voice from the phone. His stomach twisted in knots. Maybe this trip was a bad idea. He rang the doorbell, anyway.
“Coming,” called Chris, sounding far less angry than a moment earlier.
The door opened, and a man with short, dark hair and dark eyes answered. He had a five o’clock shadow and dark circles underneath his deep brown eyes. “Rusty?”
He nodded and held out his hand.
Chris shook it. “Come on in. The police want me to come back down to the station. Do you mind staying with the kids?”
“That’s why I’m here.”
“You’re a lifesaver. This last week has been a nightmare.” Chris turned around and led Rusty up the stairs. He went left, and gestured toward a gray sectional couch with stuffing coming out of the armrests.
A girl, about thirteen, with hair as dark as his sat with her eyes closed, dancing in her seat to music only she could hear in the earbuds. A boy, about eleven, with light brown hair hanging over his ears had his full attention on the television. They both had the same dark bands under their eyes as their dad—the very ones Rusty was so familiar with, too.
“That’s Kaylie. And that’s Brady.”
Neither glanced up.
“Kids!”
Kaylie pulled her earbuds out and Brady paused the show. They both turned to Chris, their eyes bloodshot.
“This is your Uncle Rusty. He’s going to watch you guys while I’m out.”
“I don’t need a babysitter,” Kaylie said.
“Me, neither,” Brady said.
“I’m not here to babysit,” Rusty assured them. “Just here in case you need something. Lunch, maybe?”
“Grilled cheese,” Brady said and turned his show back on.
“I apologize for their manners.” Chris turned to them. “Kids, be nice.”
“Yeah, yeah.” Kaylie stuck her earbuds back in and closed her eyes.
“Sorry to run,” Chris said. “But make yourself at home. Thanks again.”
“No problem.” Rusty set his suitcase next to the couch on the brown shag carpet.
Chris hurried down the stairs, and neither kid seemed to notice. He stopped near the front door and his phone sounded. Chris’s face clouded over as he glanced at the screen. He swore about a text.
“Is everything all right?” Rusty asked.
“What?” Chris looked at him, his face noticeably paler.
“Are you okay?”
“It’s the CEO of my work. He’s… I need to get the cops off my back so I can get back to work.”
“Doesn’t your boss understand you’ve lost your wife? You need time to recover and—”
“The only thing Travis Calloway cares about is the bottom line.”
Calloway? Wasn’t that the same name the neighbor had said outside?
Chris cracked his knuckles. “What I wouldn’t give for just one drink.”
“You don’t want to do that. You’ve been clean for years, haven’t you?”
His expression pinched. “Yes, I’m the one who helped Mandy get clean. I’m not going to drink. I just want one sometimes, you know? If my idiot boss and the cops would get a clue, I’d be fine.”
Rusty leaned against the cracked banister. “Surely, your boss can understand the need to—”
Chris’s phone rang. He swore and answered it. “I’m doing the best I can, Ricardo. The cops have it out for me. They won’t leave me alone.” He paused. “I can’t tell the police to wait! You’re going to have to tell Travis I’ll work nights or something. My wife just died.”
Rusty turned toward the kids and watched them, trying not to eavesdrop on Chris.
“Look, Ricardo, I can’t afford to lose this job, but I can’t tell the cops to take a hike, either. They want me down at the station now. The longer you keep me on the phone, the longer it’s going to be until I can get back to work… You can’t do that me! I have vacation days.” Chris let loose a string of profanities and put his phone away.
Rusty turned back to him. “Can I help with anything?”
Chris stared at him, his face reddening. “I hate that pompous jerk.” He picked up a potted flower and threw it against the wall. It shattered, sending soil in all directions.

Can Logan find a way to keep Audrey safe, make things right, and mend both their broken hearts?

Excerpt
Logan Hunter slid on his sunglasses and made himself comfortable on the porch swing. He closed his eyes and allowed the warm, Oregon morning sun to warm him from the outside in. It had been a few years since he’d taken a real vacation from the firm, and though the two-month break hadn’t been his idea—it was a use-it-or-lose-it situation—he was settling into the idea rather quickly now that it had started.
The plan was to spend most of the summer working on his house and car, then at some point, have a guys’ camping trip with his brothers and some cousins, maybe even his dad and uncle.
Music played from his shorts pocket. The tune told him it was the office.
He pulled out the phone and accepted the call, still keeping his eyes closed. “Logan here. I thought you guys wanted me to take the time off.”
“Do you know where the file is for the Davidson case?” His assistant Carly’s voice was more on edge than usual.
Logan readjusted himself on the seat and kicked up his feet onto the top of the railing. “I passed all my cases onto the others. I think Howe has that one.”
“He’s yelling at me because he doesn’t!”
“Tell him it’s there with all the others. Oh, and tell him he’s smart enough to figure these things out himself. I’m on vacation.”
“Sorry to bother you, but he’s throwing a real fit.”
That didn’t surprise Logan. Howe had no patience and a short fuse. “Want me to chew him out for you?”
“Well, I…” Her voice trailed away. “That isn’t why I called. I was just hoping you knew where the file is.”
“Like I said, with all the others. He probably just missed it. Details aren’t his strong suit.”
Carly sighed. “That’s what I told him. Well, not about him missing details. You’re the most organized person I know. You keep this place afloat.”
Logan couldn’t deny that much. Everyone in the firm relied on him heavily, which was part of the reason he could never bring himself to take more than a few days off at a time—and then only around major holidays. If he was honest with himself, he loved being needed, so he played into the cycle as much as anyone else.
His life was his job. Logan Hunter was the best attorney in town and he had no intention of letting anything hold him back from being the most sought-after lawyer in Enchantment Bay. Friends and family joked about him being married to work, but it wasn’t far from the truth. He certainly wasn’t going to have an actual wife. Not when previous dating relationships had gotten in the way of his job. The last time he’d had a girlfriend, Logan had been so distracted he’d nearly lost a huge case.
It was the wakeup call he’d needed, and he hadn’t forgotten the lesson. No more dating.
He hadn’t realized Carly was still talking on the phone.
“Logan?”
“Can you repeat the last part?” he asked.
“Do you want me to tell the others you’re unreachable until Labor Day?”
“That would probably be for the best. If they have questions about the cases that aren’t in my notes—and I left meticulous notes in each file—they can ask the clients themselves.”
“Got it. Marked you DNC.”
“DNC?”
“Do not call. This’ll be the last you hear from the firm, Logan. I promise. Sorry to bother you.”
“It’s no problem. Just tell Howe to breathe and maybe take up yoga.”
Carly laughed. “That I’d love to see. Well, have a great summer.”
“Thanks, Carly. You too. Be sure to take some time off for yourself.”
“I will.”
Logan cracked open one eye and ended the call. The real question was if he could stay away from the firm for two whole months. Handing off his cases to the other lawyers had been one of the hardest things he’d done in a long time.
Not going in to the office would be just as challenging. He definitely wasn’t a Mr. Fix-It type, so working on the house would be an interesting adventure, to say the least.
But before he started on any projects, he just wanted to sit on his front deck and enjoy the morning. Birds sang all around the yard. A lawn mower roared to life down the street. Dogs barked in the distance. Sweet aromas from flowers next door wafted his way and mixed nicely with the scent of fresh-cut grass.
It was the perfect day. Once the shade covered this side of the house, he’d have to head over to the beach to catch some more rays. Maybe stop by Mom and Dad’s coffee stand. They loved nothing more than when their kids stopped by to say hi.
In the meantime, Logan had at least an hour of solitude to enjoy.
“Logan? Logan Hunter?” An excited feminine voice pulled him from his thoughts.
He held back a groan and forced his eyes open. A tall, slender brunette with cascading waves grinned at him. Logan pulled off the sunglasses and studied her. She was gorgeous, and he’d never seen her before. He would have remembered her face, that much was certain.
She bounced up the walkway, stopped at the foot of the steps, and beamed. “It’s so good to see you again, Logan! You look great.”
So much for never having seen her before. He strolled over to the top of the steps and tilted his head, studying her some more. She had striking green eyes and a light sprinkling of freckles across her nose.
Where would they have met? She still didn’t seem familiar. He was certain he’d remember that face. “You look great, too.”
Her smile faded. “You don’t remember me, do you?”
Guilt stung, but he shook his head. “Sorry, no. I wish I did. Care to help me out?”
“Audrey Hughes.” Her pretty eyes widened in expectation.
His mind raced. The name sounded familiar, although he couldn’t remember where he’d heard it before. A client, maybe?
“The summer of our junior year.” Her bright green eyes widened more, obviously in hopes that he’d remember.
Logan’s mouth dropped. “Audrey? Audrey Hughes?”
She nodded and clutched her hands together. “You remember?”
A flurry of fifteen-year-old memories raced through his mind. Audrey had been in Enchantment Bay with her family for just one summer. She’d been a part of his social group all season long, and they had become good friends. More than friends, actually. But after she had returned home, they’d lost contact with each other.
And now that he had a free summer, she was back. Interesting timing.
“I hope your silence is a good thing.” The pleading in her expression made his heart skip a beat. She was a lot prettier than he remembered.
He cleared his throat. “Yeah, of course. I’m just surprised to see you. It’s been a long time.”
“Fifteen years. Hard to believe how fast time flies by.”
Logan laughed. “You sure know how to make a guy feel old.”
Pink colored her cheeks. “Sorry, but if you’re old, then that makes two of us.”
He shook his head. “Definitely not. So, what brings you back to Enchantment Bay?”
Audrey’s expression darkened for a moment, but then brightened so quickly that Logan had to question if it had changed at all. She smiled sweetly. “Actually, I came to see you.”
“Me?” She couldn’t have surprised him more than by saying that. “You came all the way here to see me?”
“I don’t suppose you remember our deal?”
Logan pressed his palm against the railing. His mind spun. “We made a deal?”
She nodded toward the porch swing. “Mind if we talk?”
“Uh, sure.” He stumbled back.
What had he agreed to?

Excerpt
“Attention, please,” Professor Foley said and turned around.
Grace snapped her attention toward the front. I followed suit.
“Welcome,” he continued.
I studied his profile. There was something familiar about him.
My heart raced at the thought.
He continued speaking, focused on the other side of the group. I couldn’t understand a word he said. The longer I stared at him, the more convinced I became that somehow I knew him. Or at least had seen him somewhere.
His hair was dark and thick, his skin tanned to perfection. He had stunning features and a gorgeous profile. It was hard to believe he was old enough to be a professor. He was younger by far than all the others I’d seen. A magazine cover would have been a more fitting place for him.
Professor Foley turned toward my side of the group. “And be sure to ask questions. That’s what we’re here…” His voice trailed off as our gazes met. His face paled and his eyes widened. His expression held something. Horror? Shock? Whatever it was, he continued staring at me.
I was frozen in place. My heart thundered in my chest, threatening to break through my ribcage. I knew him. Without a doubt, we had spent time together. I just couldn’t remember any of it. My palms had grazed that stubble and my eyes had stared into those deep blue eyes. Even with the distance, I recalled that he often smelled of woodsy aftershave and soap.
Those around me whispered, bringing me back to the present.
Professor Foley cleared his throat and glanced around at the other students. “Excuse me. As I was saying, the faculty is here to help you. Just don’t wait until the final hour.”
“What was that?” Grace whispered.
My mouth gaped and I shook my head.
“You know him or something?”
“Shh,” I snapped.
“Sorry.” She scooted away.
My hands shook. I sat on them to get them to stop.
Foley stopped talking, and everyone paired off. Grace glanced at me, her expression pensive.
I nodded and tried to push the instructor out of my mind. But how could I? He was my only clue to my past. Part of me longed to run around the other students and throw my arms around him.
Grace came over. “I wasn’t trying to bother you before.”
“I know. Sorry. What are we supposed to do?”
“We’re supposed to discuss…”
My gaze wandered back over to Professor Foley. He was speaking to a couple students and smiling. My chest constricted. Oh, that smile. It had taken my breath away countless times, though I couldn’t remember a single one of them.
