Gabriel St. James is the ultimate loner but as loyal as
they come which explains why this former marine
photojournalist is taking wedding photos. Bored and
uncomfortable, talking to the inquisitive veterinarian
Charity Tiernan brightens up the day. Charity finds Gabe
fascinating and very attractive but men like him are not
interested in anything long term. She might have stood a
chance of resisting if not for his rescue of a wounded
dog. Gabe's all about reality and his pictures depict this
yet Charity believes there is a softer side even he doesn't
know exists within him. To say Gabe is shocked by his
inability to resist Charity is an understatement yet it
does not stop him from getting to know her better. Almost
marrying the wrong man has taught Charity caution but not
enough to stay away from Gabe. When
Gabe agrees to teach at Charity's favorite camp for
separated siblings each of them are in for a life changing
event. Gabe who never thought for a minute he could have
or would want a family finds it within reach if only he has
the courage to accept that he can have a lifetime of love.
Family and passion is Ms. Ross's trademark for assuring us
that opening one of her books will take readers into a
world filled with captivating characters, humor and an
enduring love story. ONE SUMMER is another keeper from
this talented author.
When former U.S. Marine photojournalist Gabriel St. James

thing he expects is to meet a woman like Charity. A
veterinarian with a past that would have defeated a less
resilient woman, Charity still possesses a heart as generous
