Reviews

“Loved this series opener. Great romance and Tahoe setting. Can’t wait to read the others. ❤️” – 5 Stars, Laura, Amazon

“Lindsay retreats to her family’s home on Lake Tahoe to find some quiet time and to prepare for her soon-to-be wedding to Paul Webster. But when she comes face to face with Brian, an old flame who has always been commitment-phobic, she feels the familiar attraction she’d always had for him. They share time and even spend a passionate night, despite Brian’s contention that he hasn’t changed his views on long-term relationships. So, Lindsay returns to San Francisco and continues her wedding preps.

Without Lindsay, Brian does some hard thinking. He goes after her, determined to make her see that he has indeed changed. But more than Brian’s feelings have changed. That night in Tahoe has repercussions. And so do the roads in the foggy San Francisco area.” – Dee, Amazon
