Tied up in Knots

Homer Alaska has always been home to Raelyn. It’s always been the perfect, quiet, small town she’s lived in her entire life with her grandma Gigi since the death of her parents when she was ten. Living above and running the local bookshop, The Book Vault has always been her dream and everything she’s ever wanted. Well almost everything. If only Warren, one of her best friends since she was twelve, would realize how much he loves her and profess said love, everything would be perfect.

Homer Alaska has always been home to Raelyn. It’s always been the perfect, quiet, small town she’s lived in her entire life with her grandma Gigi since the death of her parents when she was ten. Living above and running the local bookshop, The Book Vault has always been her dream and everything she’s ever wanted. Well almost everything. If only Warren, one of her best friends since she was twelve, would realize how much he loves her and profess said love, everything would be perfect. Unfortunately, it’s been Warren’s dream to leave Homer as soon as possible, and now that his boat is complete that time looms in the near future.
Preparing for his long-awaited departure from the tiny town he loathes, Warren is finally ready to leave Homer. What he doesn’t plan for is his best friend (and the object of his suppressed inner desires and star of his unattainable fantasies) to confess her love for him with a body hardening kiss, followed by nights filled with secret rendezvous. Even after giving into his buried feelings for her, he can’t let a few nights of lust stop him from leaving the town filled with so many bad memories.
But months after leaving the girl of his dreams he discovers he may have left more in Homer than just his heart. Returning to claim what is his, he must prove himself the reliable man she’ll need to help care for the unexpected bundle of joy they created. Can pure determination alone help him move beyond his past and look to the future? Or will it push him away like it did before?
