would always look after them, financially and emotionally,
even though she chose guardians for them with distant
family. His apprentice, Gabi Romano, convinced Cicero to
let her open the studio in her hometown, Eternity Springs,
Colorado, instead. An artist needs happiness, peace and
an inspiration to be a success. As hard as he works, he
hopes this studio will help bring in the money to pay for
his
sister's medical bills and help with the children's
expenses.
seven-year-old Keenan, four-year-old Galen, nine-year-old
Misty and
two-year-old Daisy is all he has left of Jayne.
This suits Cicero as it will be closer to the children,
now
with the guardians, the Parnells, living in Denver. Dr.

Anderson has moved to Eternity Springs to be near her
sister, Sage, who is also a nurse and owner of the town's
art gallery. Rose isn't about to let her guard down and
trust
another man as her last fiancé, Brandon, deserted her at
the first sign of learning she had cancer and leaving her
to
deal alone. Eternity Springs and her sister will help
heal her
body and her heart. Meeting Cicero isn't something she
can deny herself and soon she is head over heels in love
with the sexy, new artist. Cicero is devastated when the
Parnell's back out of fostering the children and he finds
himself the sole care taker. The closer he and Rose get
and
even with the town pitching in to help, Cicero still frets
about making ends meet and doing justice to the children.
Just when he is so in love with the kids, everything turns
topsy- turvy and he is desolate and terrified at the
thought
of losing them. All he has now is his artistry and his
love for
Rose.

In Emily March’s new novel set in her beloved Eternity
Springs, a woman who has given up on dreams of a family
meets a man who needs her to complete his own.
Town physician Rose Anderson hides a well of sadness
behind her cheerful and capable professionalism.
Heartbreak has only reinforced her belief that marriage
and children aren’t in her future. Yet she’s a woman with
a pulse—and when sexy, brooding artist Hunt Cicero shows
up at her office with his young nephew, the sheer physical
attraction he ignites in her is both exciting and
unsettling.
Hunt has an artist’s passionate temperament and a
bachelor’s lifestyle. So when he becomes guardian to his
sister’s children, he’s riddled with conflict—and in way
over his head. Without Rose and her warm maternal
instincts, he’d be lost. Still, she’s a woman who guards
her own heart, and he’s a novice when it comes to
commitment. Can the healing magic of Eternity Springs
shine on this patchwork family and allow Hunt and Rose to
trust that love is the fabric holding them together?
