Holding Grace

Just when I thought I'd lost her forever, fate put her back in my path. This time, I wasn't letting her go.

Grace Mathews was never mine.

Just the quiet girl from work who slipped under my skin and into my dreams. Before I could tell her how I felt, she disappeared — no explanation, no goodbye.

Then one ordinary day, in the last place I expected, there she was.

But Grace isn't the same woman I remember. She's running. Hiding. And when I learn why she vanished, walking away isn't an option.

I offer her safety. A place to stay. My name.

Our marriage is supposed to be temporary. The best way I can think of to protect her.

Except the more time we spend together, the harder it becomes to pretend this is just a contract. Because I've wanted her from the beginning, and now that she's finally in my arms, I'm not giving her up.

The man who chased her here hasn't stopped looking.

But I made a vow to have and to hold her.

And I'll protect what's mine, no matter the cost.

Holding Grace is book one in the Blueprint for Love series, a steamy contemporary romance featuring a fiercely protective hero, marriage of convenience, found family, and a love worth fighting for.
