About this ebook
From a RITA award winner, “[a] school principal with a Navy SEAL body woos a down-to-earth florist” in a story that “evokes Nora Roberts’ early Americana” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
Single mom Eden Harwood has a lively daughter, a blooming business—and a juicy secret she’s hung on to for ten years. She doesn’t mind a bit that there’s no room for romance in her whirlwind life . . . until six-foot-infinity, smoldery-eyed, bass-voiced Gabe Caldera reminds her of what she might be missing.
The principal of Hellcat Elementary is usually knee-deep in fawning PTA moms, but Gabe only has eyes for the fiery, funny, skittish redhead who barely knows he’s alive. But this ex-Navy SEAL never fails to get what he wants. And what he wants is to fan those sparks between him and Eden into the kind of bonfire you can see two counties away.
The passion is explosive . . . and the tenderness has them thinking about forever. But when Eden’s past waltzes into town for a reckoning, her secret blows them apart. Still, Gabe will never back down from a fight . . . especially if the ultimate prize is Eden’s heart.
“Julie Anne Long’s writing glows with emotional intensity.” —New York Times Bestselling Author Jayne Anne Krentz

I highly enjoyed this book. The characters are great and engaging. One of my favorite parts is the dorky banter between Gabe and Eden. I chucked a lot with those two. I loved Eden's daughter. She's quite the character and very smart. This book also brought the feels. I think it's perfect if you're looking for a light read with heart, humor, and some heat.
