Hook, Line & Sinker

Brian Archer, lawyer and infamous playboy, returns to Greenridge after a long holiday to find his life in ashes. Literally. His condo has burned to the ground, and with it, his delusion that he’s a footloose, fancy-free guy who doesn’t secretly crave a home and a place to belong.  

Staying with his lovebird brother and sister-in-law at River’s Sigh B & B proves unbearable, only rubbing in his deep loneliness. Then he meets Katelyn—a single mom determined to rescue herself, thank you very much. What is it about her that makes Brian want to go all knight in shining armor? 

Single mom and wannabe entrepreneur Katelyn Kellerman needs to escape from Greenridge. Her—and her children’s—safety depends on it. Plus, she knows the hazards of trusting someone all too well. So why, after meeting Brian Archer, does she long to stay put? 

No matter how they fight their feelings, Brian and Katelyn fall for each other hook, line, and sinker—but life isn’t a fairy tale. Brian can’t live in limbo forever, Katelyn’s ex is increasingly threatening, and she needs to secure a future for her and her kids. Can they beat the odds, salvage the ashes of their pasts, and risk everything for love, or are they just fishing for trouble?
