Emma Uranova enjoys her office job until her boss disappears with the investors’ money. To avoid the media storm and false accusations, Emma flees to Whispering Creek, Tennessee to live on her best friend’ s secluded property. When a temporary position opens up in Nashville, Emma leaves small-town anonymity to pad her depleted bank account. With a handsome new boss and a steady income, Emma believes life is looking up… until she discovers she has transported the scandal in her backpack. Where is God when her life is falling apart?

Wade Donoven is recuperating from a crash that sidelined him from the family electrical business. Worse yet, his prodigal younger brother is getting the glory for Wade’ s accomplishments. Desperation, and physical setbacks, have him agreeing to let Emma help him manage the business office. But when trouble follows her to his doorstep, Wade must make some difficult choices. Sending Emma back to Whispering Creek may unknowingly place the woman he’s come to love in danger.

Book Excerpt

“Wanna dance?” Wade leapt to his feet and motioned toward the floor with an arm that suddenly felt as if it had broken out in hives. 

     Emma popped out of her seat and scooted toward him. Her nose crinkled. For once she looked shy. 

     “I don’t know that song or how to dance country. I only know a few polka steps or what we did in high school. Hold on and barely move.” 

     “Works for me.” He grasped her hand and stifled a smirk as Brown Hat did an about face. Blocking the warning signals going off in his brain and ignoring any inquisitive gazes from his parents, he drew Emma in close and started the slowest three-hundred-and-sixty-degree turn of his life. The brim of Emma’s hat tickled his chin and whatever floral perfume she was wearing had him rocketing to Mars. He liked the feel of her curves in his arms. He tightened his hold around her lower back, and when she snuggled closer, he almost sang with the band. Yep, he’d better call the doctor straightaway for a medical release and create a few degrees of separation from Emma. Holding her in his arms felt too real and too right. Why hadn’t he learned how to polka?
