Better Late Than Never: A Clean, Later in Life Romance (Paperback or Softback)

A clean later-in-life romance about a reclusive woman who's hidden from the world for twenty years and the persistent bachelor who refuses to look away. A tender story of scars, courage and love arriving when it's least expected.

If only she could be invisible

Kara Grissom has spent twenty years in hiding. Ever since suffering a severe facial burn the night after her college graduation, her only refuge has been the childhood home she shares with her mother. She's long since given up on any possibility of finding love, so when a handsome stranger suddenly invades her safe place, she's stunned by the sudden awakening of desires she thought had died years ago.

Dawson Wickham loves life as a bachelor. He has everything he needs with his own home, a great family, and the perfect job. But he also loves mysteries, and when he accidentally stumbles upon the reclusive Kara and she flees from him, her bizarre reaction is a puzzle he just has to solve.

Kara knows that no man who sees her face could ever love her, so she does her best to rebuff Dawson's interest. But he's not the type to give up easily, especially once he begins to fall for her charm, wit and intelligence. But will his love be enough to break through Kara's phobia of rejection and convince her to trust him?

Or is she destined to live out her days alone?

It is indeed short and sweet and always contains a pic of a dog guaranteed to make you smile.
My favorite stories involve spunky, sweet heroines and strong, swoon-worthy guys who aren't afraid to take charge ... oh, and a dog in the mix never hurt either. So those are the type of books I write! I live in the beautiful mountains of North Idaho--inspiration for my Huckleberry Ridge Romance series--with my hubby of 30 years and our adorable Beagle mix Stella.
When I'm not reading or plotting my next novel, I enjoy gardening, hiking, and soaking in my hot tub during the cold months. I do housework when I must and laundry when we run out of clean underwear.
