Hope Harbor police chief Lexie Graham offers zero time for romance–but the handsome ex-con she enlists to greatly help her with a wayward teenager might convince her to make time for love. Hope Harbor police chief Lexie Graham offers plenty on her plate raising her son alone and coping with a sudden rash of petty theft and vandalism in her seaside Oregon hometown. Because of this, she’s zero period for extracurricular activities–including romance. Ex-con Adam Rock isn’t searching for love either–but how ironic is it the fact that first woman to catch his eye is definitely a police key? Yet wishing for stuff that can hardly ever be is definitely foolish. Even so, when Lexie enlists Adam’s help to keep a young guy from falling into a lifestyle of crime, sparks begin to travel. And because they work together, it soon turns into apparent that God may possess a different–and better–future prepared on their behalf than either could envision. Lauded by Library Journal as ‘a professional at character advancement,’ Irene Hannon welcomes visitors back to this enchanting Oregon seaside town where hearts heal–and like blooms.
