He’s the one with a family plan
Relocating his sprawling family to this small Texas town wasn’t the career move Austin cop Luke Hollister planned. Especially when the case he’s working involves one of Holly Heights’s own. Just ask his new neighbor Jennifer Neal, the high school math teacher who’s fiercely protective of her community and personal space. Luke’s here to serve, too. He’s got a foster mom, siblings and little niece to keep safe. Yet the more he and Jen are thrown together, the more Luke wants to settle here for good—with the fiery redhead. But can he convince Jen to turn the dream house for one she’s building into a real home?
“Think you’ll ever take the plunge?”
Luke expanded on the question, though he had no idea why he was asking. “Picture life with four or five mean redheads running around your empty house?”
Jen snorted. “Can you even imagine me as a mother?” She crossed her arms over her chest. “I came down here to talk about Joseph and his math homework. You’re tricky.”
“Unless you’re going to tell me whatever it is you and Joseph are hiding, I’ll pick a new topic. Maybe kissing.”
She blinked at him. “You think I can’t handle a kiss without spilling the beans?” She leaned over the armrest of her chair. “Test me.”
Before he’d decided he was going to do it, Luke had his lips pressed to hers. Instead of spice and heat, Jen’s kiss was sweet and perfect. Nothing like he would have imagined.
But now he could picture starting each day with one like it... And, oh...that wasn’t going to happen.
When I began this series about three friends who win the lottery, I spent some time imagining what I’d do with an unexpected windfall. It’s fun to daydream, but my practical side kept getting in the way!
My no-nonsense heroine Jen dreams of a comfortable home with the space she’s always wanted and the chance to buy new instead of making do with hand-me-downs. When the Hollisters move in across the street, she adds one more goal: chasing away the cop who tried to bully her friends. That cop turns out to be a good man doing his very best to keep his family, a collection of foster kids and the woman who brought them together, safe. Both Jen and Luke understand that “family” is a collection of the people who love you, and nothing matters more. I hope you enjoy spending time with them.
