Welcome to Adams Grove...where wrongs are righted with just desserts. Luck abandoned Brooke Justice during her nasty divorce. Desperate to escape her malicious ex-husband, she relocated to the small town of Adams Grove, Virginia. When someone breaks into her new house, she suspects her ex bears the blame for the crime. With no evidence and little help from the police, she asks a private investigator to take her case-a private investigator whose sexy broad shoulders and stunning blue eyes make her question her decision to swear off relationships forever. Mike Hartman fled Adams Grove when a devastating loss left his heart in pieces. After years overseas in the military, he's finally returned home, determined to start anew as a private investigator. Then Brooke walks into his office, awakening something he hasn't felt in years. Can they both move on...into each other's arms? Or will the pain of the past-and the dangerous threat lurking in the present-destroy their new beginning?
