A touching modern fairy tale that won’t let go of your heart, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fool’s Gold romances!
Mathias Mitchell’s easy smile hides a world of hurt. After the worst kind of family betrayal, he moves to Happily Inc., California—the wedding destination town supplies a steady stream of bridesmaids, perfect for his “no promises, no pain” lifestyle. Yet he can’t stop watching for his beautiful, elusive neighbor on the animal preserve behind their homes.
Gamekeeper Carol Lund knows she’s not special enough to attract an alpha male like Mathias, so his offer to help her adopt a herd for her lonely giraffe is surprising—and his determined seduction, even more so. But just as she finally welcomes him into her bed, his careless actions crush her heart. Will she give him a second chance to prove she’ll always come first in his heart?

Being the “mom” of two gorgeous cats and a new tiny puppy, I know the joy that pets can bring to our lives. Animal welfare is a cause I have long supported. For me that means giving to Seattle Humane. At their 2016 Tuxes and Tails fund-raiser, I offered “Your pet in a romance novel” as an auction item.
In this book you will meet a funny, sweet and slightly naughty beagle named Sophie. She was a superstar in a previous book, Thrill Me, and her human parents once again gave generously so she could be immortalized in all her glorious Sophie-ness in this book. I adored writing about Sophie and was delighted to give her many adventures. From romping with a giraffe to being a doggy bridesmaid, Sophie will steal your heart.
One of the things that makes writing special is interacting in different ways with people. Some I talk to for research. Some are readers who want to talk characters and story lines, and some are fabulous pet parents. Sophie’s family adores her and she brings hours of pleasure to them.
My thanks to Sophie’s family, to Sophie herself and to the wonderful people at Seattle Humane (www.seattlehumane.org). Because every pet deserves a loving family.
