Romance Contemporary


Branna Lind's self–esteem rests at the bottom of the Mississippi River. She canceled her "wedding of the decade," though she isn't saying why. She wants life on her own terms, no ready–made job in the family business: no safety net of close–knit kin, and no more betrayal.

College professor James Newbern prizes his bachelorhood. Experience has taught him beautiful women are high–maintenance trouble and Branna fits that type. He is happy to avoid her until the college vice president assigns him to mentor the newest hire––Branna.

Branna is on her way to a new life, but will the scars of the past send her running from love? Even if she stands her ground, can she convince James that she truly is his "type"?
