Dear Reader,

I just love writing about quirky characters, and my heroine, Paige Carlyle, is as quirky as they come. Growing up in a houseful of alpha males, it was stand up for herself or get stuck doing sweaty sporty-guy laundry forever. And Paige is no one’s fool. She’s smart, independent and prepared to take down intruders fairy-commando style, totally surprising Dr. Tyler Reese, who’s returned to the Olympic Peninsula to reconnect with his father and recuperate from an accident that threatens his surgical career.

Frankly, a feisty, quirky woman is exactly what the handsome surgeon needs to jolt him out of his funk. Maybe she hadn’t quite meant to knock him unconscious, but, hey, for a girl who’s spent most of her adult life with her nose buried in medical textbooks, having a hunk fall at her feet is the biggest thrill of the decade. Despite himself, Ty finds himself falling—in an entirely new way—for his very distracting neighbor. Of course, he tries to deny his feelings—silly man—but he’s a smart guy and finally admits to himself that Paige is as perfect for him as he is for her.

I hope you find yourself falling for Paige and Ty’s story, too.

Happy reading,

Lucy
