Author:   Kari Lemor

 

Genre:   Small town contemporary romance

 

Book Blurb:  

 

Can she see beyond his past to heal his damaged soul?

 

After a drug overdose claimed his sister, True "TJ" Bannister abandons his celebrity lifestyle of sex, drugs, and rock and roll to seek redemption and peace. Now, running a quiet bookstore in picturesque Cape Cod, he dreams of a fairytale ending but fears his troubled past makes him unworthy of love.

 

Sara Storm, determined to step out from her brothers' shadows, arrives in Cape Cod to pursue her singing career. Needing extra income, she takes a job at TJ's shop, where her infectious optimism starts to melt his guarded heart. He begins to believe in the possibility of a brighter future, with her.

 

As Sara's talent starts to draw attention, she faces the allure of the music industry—the same shattered world he left behind.  How can he choose between his newfound serenity and a life that nearly destroyed him?

 

Excerpt

 

“She’s sweet, isn’t she?” Mary asked at TJ’s shoulder. She needed a bell around her neck.

 

“Who? Sara Sunshine? That’s a little too much happiness for me.”

 

“Only because you’re a miserable old grouch. She’d be good for you. Make you start living again.”

 

He frowned, proving her point. His first eighteen years he’d done more living than anyone should. Look at where it’d gotten him.

 

“Enough with the Cupid’s arrow. She’d never be interested if she knew who I was…what I really am.”

 

Mary pointed her finger at his face. “Stop. You aren’t the same wild teen you were ten years ago. Or even the young man who asked me for a job six years ago. You need to let it go.”

 

Damn, he wanted to. But deep inside, he was still the same twisted person. He might be a revised edition with a shiny new cover and up to date formatting, but the story was still trash. If Sara stuck around long enough, she’d see it. That would wipe the smile off even her face.
