Fromย New York Timesย Bestselling author Corinne Michaels comes the final poignant standalone love story in the Arrowood Brothers Series.
Hollywood taught me everything I know about relationshipsโexcept how to be in one. As an actor, I became an expert at faking it. Faking that I wasn’t affected by my childhood. Faking that I was okay. Faking that I knew how to save the day, the girl, the whole damn world.
But I’ve always known the truthโIโm no one’s hero.
Until Iโm forced to move back to Sugarloaf for six months, and Brenna Allen offers me a chance to prove otherwise. Sheโs everything I never knew I wanted, but can’t have. Her broken heart, perfect face, and adorable children turn my world upside down. Instead of preparing for my next leading role, Iโm directing a middle school play for this small-town single mother.
All to make her smile.
The more time I spend here, the more I want to stay. Build a life in this town that I swore Iโd leaveโfor her.
But when the world comes crashing down around us, Iโm forced to decide if staying for her is the right choice or if leaving is better for the woman I love.
I haven’t seen her in three years.
I haven’t talked to her since the kiss.
So why am I on a plane, flying across the world to spend a week with her in Germany?
One word: Pops.
My lifeโs a mess.
My possible football career is hanging on by a thread.
I’m driving the roads of Germany in honor of Pops with the one girl I can never have.
And Iโm sharing a bed with her, the girl I’ve measured everyone else up to, while desperately trying to not to touch her.
We made a pact growing up, never to get romantic with each other – never fall in love.
And I’m about to break that pact. For good.
Sheโs drowning under the weight of her lies.
Denise Randall is the youngest of the Randall siblings, their perfect princess. But her perfection is nothing but a faรงade โ one thatโs carefully hidden under a crown of lies. It takes everything she has to ensure the truth remains concealed, that her true feelings and imperfections stay in the shadows where theyโve always been due to her siblings and the family drama that surrounds the Randall family.
But a person can only hold so much in before it becomes too painful a burden to bear, until the cost becomes too great a price to pay. When things turn dangerous and the shadows she once lived in hold something far more sinister, she finds help in an unlikely source.
Keaton Sloan, like everyone in town, has known the Randall family his entire life. He went to school with the older Randall siblings, and his best friend, Noah Wallace, is in a relationship with Deniseโs older sister, Alice. It hasnโt escaped Sloanโs notice that Denise Randall has grown into a stunningly beautiful young woman. Despite his attractions, sheโs off limits, not only because sheโs his friendโs younger sister, but because he works for her father.
Things change between them one fateful night when Denise runs into his arms. Sloan may not be a prince, but heโs willing to help keep her crown on straight and her secrets hidden in exchange for her.
But this isnโt a fairytale and while heโll willingly protect the princess, sheโll have to save herself as well before she drowns in her lies.
The biggest question is how do you know the truth when itโs built on so many lies?
