Lexi Nelson interests me in a way no woman has in years. Unfortunately, she wants nothing to do with me and makes so secret of that fact. My friends are baffled watching me chase after this cold, prickly woman who seems to have nothing but disdain for my very existence. One passionate encounter in a parking lot, however, leaves me convinced that Lexi isn't what she seems to be, and if I can just get her to let me in, I'll find enough warmth to last a lifetime. The only thing that's certain, however, I can't walk away now even if I wanted to. Once bitten, twice shy. I know what happens when I let men get too close; I know not to trust their sweet whispered words and promises of love. I won't let myself be hurt that way again. So I will ignore the way Daniel Wright's smile makes my stomach flutter like I'm a girl with her first crush. And I'll ignore everything inside me that wishes I could trust what he offers. But after a small lie that I told my mother to stop her matchmaking snowballs, I might not have a choice but to let Daniel in. The deal was, we pretend we're in a relationship until after my sister's wedding. The rules: no sex and no feelings. But the closer Daniel and I get, the more I'm tempted to throw out the rules and give him everything. But when the past comes back to haunt both of us, I have to decide if I'm willing to trust again or if I'm going to walk away for good. This is the second book in my Home In Cedar City series.

I was the woman he loved. She was the woman he could never refuse. I stopped competing with Veronica the day I understood the truth: Adrian hadn't just let her into our lives, he'd built her a home inside the spaces meant for me. For two years, I was Claire Monroe. The safe and steady one. The woman Adrian Cole never had to worry about because she never made a scene, raised her voice, or asked for more than he was willing to give. Understanding. Patient. Reliable. I wore those words like armor, never realizing they were the very reasons he felt free to look away. And while I stayed quiet, Veronica Steele, the grieving family friend, the woman who wielded her sorrow like a blade, quietly took everything that should have been mine. Not his heart. No. Something worse. His presence. His attention. Every late-night conversation, every cancelled dinner, every moment he chose to be somewhere I wasn't. I learned the cost of that choice on the kitchen floor of our apartment, my body folding in on itself, my appendix rupturing as I whispered his name into a voicemail he wouldn't hear until it was too late. Adrian. Please. I need you. He was with her. Of course he was with her. I survived the surgery. But lying in that hospital bed, staring at the empty chair beside me, I finally understood something I should have known all along: There was no reason left to stay. So I stopped waiting. And only then, only when the door had already closed, did Adrian finally see the truth. But seeing and losing never happen in the right order. "Unfaithful Promise" is the story of a man who realized what he had only after he had nothing left to hold, and a woman who finally decided she would never again be someone's second choice. Some people don't recognize love until they're standing in the ruins of it.
