Her life has turned upside down
Back in high school, Sarah Hillman was a rich girl who protected herself by always being on the attack. Now her father’s skipped town, the money’s gone and she’s sleeping in her office. Too bad the only person she can turn to has every reason to reject her.
Will Barnes isn’t a gangly math nerd anymore. He’s a financial advisor and a father, and when Sarah shows up in his office, he threatens to kick her out. And yet, Will agrees to help. But if Sarah falls for this kind, strong man, she’ll have to stay in Holly Heights, a town where everyone knows her...and hates her.
“I’m not accepting any new clients.”
Not even if she was the daughter of the richest man in town and he could use the business. Will walked around the dog and held the door open for them. “And I’m too busy to make small talk.”
Sarah put her hand on the dog’s head and looked down at him for a minute. Will was pretty sure he was going to win this encounter. It was a weird feeling. At seventeen, he’d been happy to escape her notice. Now he wanted to see the expression on her face while she digested that bit of information.
She straightened her shoulders, smoothed her red dress and shifted in the sky-high heels. Her red lips curved up and she tilted her chin. “Come on, Will, won’t you even give me a chance to tell you how much I need your help?”
Ever since I met a beagle puppy named Jake, I’ve been dog crazy. Back then I was cute enough to convince my parents that dogs sleep in the house and on the bed. Today I’m lucky to have a writing partner named Jack, a stray I met in the middle of the road. I believe in rescues. Old or young, purebred or indeterminate mix, shelter dogs (and cats) change lives. Rescue work is a challenge due to hard stories, limited resources and the unending, disheartening turnover. The flip side is the serious joy of successful adoption and proof that second chances happen every day.
In Heart’s Refuge, Sarah Hillman is already falling under the spell of a shelter dog named Bub when she corners Will Barnes in his office. Sarah gave Will a hard time in high school, but she’s determined to save Paws for Love and she needs Will’s help. I’ve loved spending time with Will and Sarah and the animals that change their lives, Bub and Jelly. I hope you will, too!

Now Cheryl spends her days searching for the right words while she stares out the window and her dog, Jack, snoozes beside her. And she considers herself very lucky to do so.
