River rafting and adventure company owner Sam Braden works hard and plays harder. He’s fast, focused, and determined–and never at a loss for a willing woman to share his time with. The trouble is, the only woman he wants refuses him at every turn.
Physician assistant Faith Hayes escaped her painful past and built a safe, happy life in Peaceful Harbor. She’s also put what she’s learned to good use helping others by founding Women Against Cheaters, an online support group. When her boss’s sinfully sexy brother sets his sights on sweet Faith, she knows the self-professed player is everything she shouldn’t want, and she’s determined to resist him.
Sam pulls out all the stops, proving to Faith that his past doesn’t have to define his future. As she lets down her guard and begins to trust Sam, intense conversations turn to intimate pleasures. But when real life steps in and their pasts collide, it’s Faith who’s left with something to prove.
Thank you to Lisa for letting me take part in this tour. I’ve been looking forward to hearing Sammy’s story for quite a while.
Sam Braden is a well known player in Peaceful Harbor. He works hard and he plays even harder. The girls Sammy hooks up with don’t mean anything to him and he was just looking for some fun. That is until he meets Faith.
Faith is a smart girl. She’s not going to be one of Sam Braden’s playthings. She’s been hurt before and she won’t let a man like him hurt her all over again.
I have to say that naughty Sammy won my heart. I’ve loved all the Braden men but he wiggled himself a bigger piece of my heart than the others. He is permanently honest. He constantly thinks about what Faith needs and how everything affects her.
I loved seeing Sammy change into the man he is deep down and I’m really looking forward to the rest of the Peaceful Harbor series.
