Hooked
About this ebook
Knocked around by life—and then knocked up by a man she won’t speak of—Sam Kendall gives her baby up for adoption.
Envisioning herself a lone cowboy, she avoids any relationships that might risk her heart. There’s wonderful fun to be had if you don’t fall prey to the ludicrous notion of true love!
Lately, though, her carefully constructed life feels less like freedom and more like loneliness. Plus, her daughter Aisha has tracked her down—seventeen years old and pregnant. Despite misgivings, Sam checks into River’s Sigh Bed and Breakfast to meet her.
Then widower Charles Bailey, Aisha's adoptive father, shows up—and Sam can't control her outrage. What was her sacrifice for? She could’ve raised the kid to follow her stupid footsteps all on her own. And topping it off? Charlie’s a neurotic, stodgy jerk—even if he is ridiculously hot and a romance author, of all things!
The longer Sam stays at River’s Sigh, the more confused she gets. Maybe Charlie isn’t so terrible after all. Maybe his approach to life—and all this family stuff—is something she could get hooked on.
But they’re opposites in every way, and worse: he’s Aisha’s adoptive dad. A romance between them would be too weird, wouldn’t it? Every part of Sam screams, Run.
Yet what if, in spurning Charlie and Aisha, she’s turning her back on everything she never knew she wanted?
