Publisher Description
Years of adversity have molded Henley McClure into the attentive, conscientious psychologist she is today. She lives for her daughter, Jasna, and her work at The Refuge, an exclusive retreat for victims of PTSD. Her life is fulfilling…if a little lonely. But the only man who’s captured her interest, the most standoffish of the mountain retreat’s seven owners, lives in self-imposed isolation. It will take a little vulnerability on her own part, a dead car battery, and the surprising help of her daughter to break through Finn’s defenses.
His Coast Guard career ended in a tragedy that ground Finn “Tonka” Matlick’s life to a halt. For years, his only solace has been the animals he tends to at The Refuge…and admiring Henley from afar. He had no plans to risk potential heartache ever again, until an incident at the retreat had him clinging to Henley like the broken man he is. The kind, patient therapist and her sweet, thoughtful daughter may be the only ones capable of putting him back together.
As Finn slowly heals, and he and Henley grow ever closer, someone is watching. Waiting. Planning. Evil in the making who ultimately wants to watch the world burn, one victim at a time. And they’ll start by targeting one of the people Finn loves most.
**Deserving Henley is the 2nd book in The Refuge Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.
Customer Reviews
Deserving Henley
Really good characters & plot. The story moved at a good pace and I really liked all the characters. However the sex scenes were a little too much for me. I don’t find the average night to include 4-5-6-7- orgasms per participant and I don’t care for the play-by play of every lick, throb, tweak, etc. I’ve always enjoyed enough insinuation to work with but let my own imagination fill in the rest(or not).
Deserving Henley
These two people with her daughter and their friends and coworkers are a team that will do what needs to be done to make all well.
Still Waters Run Deep
Finn “Tonka” Matlick is still recovering from the traumatic event that had him leave the Coast Guard. He’s not a social, preferring the company of the animals in the barn. That is until
Henley McClure comes to The Refuge as a therapist. Feeling unworthy, he admires her from afar for two years, until she needs help with her daughter, Jasna. The girl who reminds him so much of his late best friend, unlocks something in him that makes him decide to pursue his interest in Henley. Little does he know, Henley has also been crushing on him from afar.
Two complementary souls, a bright and inquisitive 12 year old, a cow named Mable, a lurking evil, and the men of The Refuge make for an exciting read!
