Publisher Description
Meet the Kincade brothers: they’ll do what it takes to protect their legacy—but what happens when love gets in the way?
Hockey star Jordan Kincade wasted no time ditching Sunshine Valley and everyone who mattered for a career in the NHL—a truth Jordan confronts when his parents’ deaths bring him home. Now he’s back to make amends, which begins with keeping his younger sister from flunking out of school. It’s just his luck that the one person who can help is the girl whose heart he broke years ago.
Lucy Diamond has racked up a number of monumental mistakes in her life, the first involving a certain blue-eyed charmer. She has no intention of falling for Jordan Kincade again, but when he shows up asking her to help one of her students, Lucy just can’t say no. Worse, the longer he’s back, the more she sees how much he’s changed. And so when a blistering kiss turns to more, she can’t help but wonder if her heart will be crushed again . . . or if she’ll discover true love with a better man.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Witty repartee brightens the melancholy mood in Terry's new Sunshine Creek Vineyard series. NHL player Jordan Kincaid has lived a life most people dream of. He's played hard, partied hard, and traveled the country but he's done it at the expense of time with his close-knit family. When his parents are killed, he takes responsibility for his teenage sister, Nicole, whom he barely knows. When Jordan finds out she's struggling in school, he turns to Lucy Diamond, her teacher, for help. Growing up, nerdy and shy Lucy couldn't believe it when high school jock Jordan asked her to the graduation dance. She finally agreed to go only to have him stand her up. Lucy decides to put her feelings aside and help him, and Jordan seizes the opportunity to make amends. While working together to help his sister, he realizes the things that attracted him to Lucy long ago have only gotten better. A mystery involving a thief and the attention-grabbing secondary characters of this delightful, tender-hearted romp will keep readers anticipating the sequel.
