He’ll do anything for his daughter...
Even fight to regain an old classmate’s broken trust.
In the three years since her mother’s death, widower Hoyt Bradley’s daughter, Jess, hasn’t spoken—until she suddenly begs him to save her favorite bookstore from closing. Hoyt is desperate to hear his daughter’s voice again, but he and the bookstore’s pretty owner, Anna Delaney, share a less-than-friendly past. Working together is complicated enough...but can they avoid falling in love?
LAUREL BLOUNT lives on a small farm in Middle Georgia with her husband, David, their four children, a milk cow, dairy goats, assorted chickens, an enormous dog, three spoiled cats and one extremely bossy goose with boundary issues. She divides her time between farm chores, homeschooling and writing, and she’s happiest with a cup of steaming tea at her elbow and a good book in her hand.

“Can’t we take Miss Anna flying, Daddy?”
Hoyt glanced in the rearview mirror to see Jess leaning forward, her face pleading. As he watched, his daughter’s gaze shifted briefly from him to Anna. “Please?”
Anna’s gaze fastened on to his for a second, then she turned to look back at Jess. “Are you asking me to go up in that plane, sweetie?” Hoyt held his breath as Jess hesitated.
“Yes.”
It might have been the softest whisper Hoyt had ever heard, but it was definitely an answer. Jess was talking to Anna.
But the joyful relief that surged up in him was mixed with fear. Everything he’d prayed for hinged directly on what Anna did next.
He caught her green eyes with his and tried his best to communicate silently. Please, Delaney. This matters. Please don’t say no. Not now.
He could tell Anna understood him. She instantly went about five shades paler, but she managed a choppy nod. “Well, fine, then. Since you’re asking me, Jess.”
Hoyt’s heart swelled with gratitude—and guilt. “Are you sure?”
“No,” she muttered, pushing open the truck door. “But I’m doing it anyway.”
