Summer Escape

The beach cottage is the perfect summer escape until my high school sweetheart steps out of the shower and into my arms. 

 

I had a plan. Retire from the military rent a beach cottage for the summer, build some beautiful memories with my daughter. I thought it’d be simple. 

 

I was wrong. 

 

Because my daughter seems to have turned into a moody teenager overnight, and I’m struggling to connect with her at all. Then there’s the fact that the cottage was double booked. 

 

By my high school sweetheart.

 

Saylor is my most treasured memory. The one that got away. 

 

Until now. 

 

All my plans are ruined, because being in forced proximity to the woman who might’ve been the love of my life is torture. The most beautiful, sexy torture I’ve ever endured.

 

But Saylor’s life is across the state. My life is one big question mark. My gut’s telling me I should walk away.

 

My heart on the other hand…well, that’s telling an entirely different story…
