[Fated Loves 03] • All This Time

She’s a book nerd and a cat whisperer. He’s scarred and intimidating. Can the quirky bookstore owner tame the beast in the detective?

Lily Young:

I admitted the book boyfriends by the dozen in my Cat’s Cradle bookstore may have taken precedence over dating in real-life. I wanted the real thing, an everlasting true love, a man holding me nightly, but the journey to finding that guy wasn’t so easy. I’d kissed a few frogs along the way, and maybe my quirky sense of style chased a few away. One thing was for sure, the heroines in my romance novels made this falling in love thing seem easier than this.

Jace Delfino:

Scarred for life, that’s what I got for protecting my best Army buddy. My beasty look was great for work, as a detective I could intimidate the most hardened criminals. Women took one look at me, then looked away, leaving me wondering if I’d live alone the rest of my days. But when Lily entered the picture, all I wanted was for her to see how gooey she made me feel inside.

When trouble brews from the local criminal element, will Jace be able to protect Lily for life?

This quirky and the beast story will amuse you with cute cats, a little humor, and steamy bits while delivering a Happy Ever After that satisfies. This standalone is also part of the interconnected Fated Loves series.
