Publisher Description
Candace Carmichael was just getting used to the lavish life when
everything went sour. Now the down-on-her-luck real estate agent is back
in Bigler, North Carolina, jobless and illegally rooming with her
mother in a swank retirement community. All this makes her wonder why
she ever considered her BFF Cheri's invitation to move back home. Life
in this small mountain town may not be as glamorous as the one she had
in Tampa, but she knows a girl can't be too choosy in this market.
Besides, everyone's happy to welcome Candy back—especially one handsome
widower named Turner . . .
Turner has grown up to be one fine-looking piece of man candy—and looks even tastier in his sheriff's uniform. Maybe that's why she couldn't resist kissing him when he pulled her over for a traffic violation. Even if a relationship was part of Candy's business plan, Turner would be off limits—he still wears his wedding ring, four years after his wife died. If falling in love too fast is a crime, Candy is soon guilty as charged and ready to be fingerprinted. But is she ready to lock away her dreams and hand Turner the keys to her heart?

"The budding romance/sexual tension between the two main characters was delicious to read about. This was also the first time I ever read about a main character who was of a mixed race."

" I liked the characters a lot. I thought the action portion was a bit over the top but overall pretty good. We really need a 3.5 rating. I'll certainly continue the series if more are to come. "

" Pretty good. Was a cute story and always love the transformation type of books, gives hope that things always do seem to work out somehow no matter how bad they may seem at the time. "

" susan has been disappointing in the last 3 books. Was once one of my favorite authors but dont know whats gone wrong. Favorite book of hers was Public Displays of Affection but none since have been as good. "

" it was a cute story, pretty predictable if you are an avid reader, not a lot of twists or surprises. Pretty detailed sexual discriptions. "
— Chris, 7/1/2013 -
" It really was a cute story, but I felt like I had read it before, a dozen times. I did like Candy and Turner, thought they were good characters and had good chemistry, but I was a little disappointed in how the whole thing was laid out. "

" Much better than the first book in the series but still not as good as SD first few books. "
— moran, 6/9/2013 -
" Cute story. Candy had to grow on me. I didn't particularly care for her at first. I didn't read the first book in the series, but now I want to. LOL "
— Sassafrass, 3/8/2013 -
" The story line was decent and easy to follow. It was hard for me to guess what was going to happen next which is always good. I don't know if I would read it (listen to it) again but I didn't hate it. "
