Ruby Red (Hidden Hearts)

One fallen LA socialite. One cinnamon-roll bartender. One missing fortune. Zero backup plan.

Fallen LA socialite Billionaire ex-husband Cinnamon-roll bartender she absolutely should not fall for. This is a steamy, high-emotion, riches-to-rags contemporary romance.

Sometimes you have to lose everything to find the one thing that matters. Love.
Ali Stinson’s life implodes in one afternoon.
One minute she’s wasting an afternoon at her favorite resort. The next, she learns her investment manager has vanished with every last cent she owns.
Now Ali has to:

• Pretend nothing’s wrong in front of her high-society “friends,”
• Find a dress she suddenly can’t afford for a charity gala, and
• Definitely not fall for Sam, the cute bartender who keeps insisting on helping her.

She’s ninety percent sure she doesn’t want help.
She’s one hundred percent sure she doesn’t trust her own heart.

Looking for work, not love. Too bad love keeps sitting at his bar.
Sam Freemont came to the swanky resort to lie low and start over.
Keeping his head down was working, right up until the best kiss of his life got interrupted by his boss.
Ali is trouble wrapped in red lipstick and attitude, and Sam knows it.
She’s also the only person who makes him forget the past he’s running from.
Every shift puts her back on his barstool. Every stolen moment dares him to push past his secrets and fight for more than a fling. If she’ll let him in.
