The Scene
“But who’s romancing you, Grace?” He was close enough to breathe her in. “Brookwell gossip says you’re perpetually single.”
“You shouldn’t believe everything you hear.”
As a defense, it was hardly convincing. “Shouldn’t I?” He trailed his fingers down the column of her throat.
“No one else is you,” she whispered, her eyes locked with his. Then her gaze dropped to his mouth. “Will you kiss me? Please, just once more.”
He cradled her head in his hand. “Once more won’t be enough,” he vowed.

Regan’s Favorite Part of the Story
This small town second chance romance gave me all the feels when the characters of this series first appeared in my imgaination. I wanted to introduce another core group of friends on Brookwell Island. First it was the close friends who get together in silent book club to read together simply for the love of books. (especially romance) Then when I was sorting out which romances would best fit each character, Grace and Calvin practically ran away with my muse. We’ve all read and heard stories of “the one that got away” and this couple was affected by some serious life events, but they never forgot each other. Their first kiss after so many years apart… I might’ve cried on my keyboard.
