Her secret or her second chance? It was her choice
Winning the lottery should have been a dream. Instead, Jessie Martin’s life is transformed into a nightmare. In order to protect herself and her family, she flees to Key West. But in a world where no one can be trusted, even paradise seems like a prison.
Breaking the rules of her seclusion to waitress at a local restaurant, Jessie suspects the owner’s sexy nephew, Logan Nash, knows she’s hiding something. Caught between the truth and lies, Jessie won’t risk anyone discovering who she really is. Even if she’s falling for this one perfect guy...
“What do you want, Logan?”
“I’m just being friendly. Here.”
Logan offered her the bag. Jessie took it. Their fingers bumped. So did her pulse rate.
“Why?”
He laughed—a low rumble of sound. “Are you always suspicious when people are nice to you?”
“You’ve made it clear you don’t like or trust me. So why are you really here?”
“Because Miri’s important to me, and she likes you.”
He tied off the kayak, then climbed onto the dock. His legs were long and tanned and lightly swirled with dark hair. Even his bare feet were sexy.
So he was attractive. Big deal.
That didn’t mean she was attracted to him... Definitely not.
Have you ever dreamed of winning the lottery? I think most, if not all, of us have. We believe that a few million dollars will solve all of our problems. When I started reading the real stories of big lottery winners, I learned that isn’t usually the case. Winning the jackpot is, in fact, a curse for most winners. That’s how this story began.
When elementary-school teacher Jessamine wins, her life is turned upside down. She’s forced into hiding and must reevaluate the things that are most important in her life—and those are not the material things she can buy. Then she finds a man she can love, but how can she ever be sure he loves her and not the fortune she’s won?
I hope you enjoy Jessamine’s journey.
