It’s late 1974, and high school student, Melinda Dawson is in serious trouble. Within two hours of revealing her suspected pregnancy to her parents, she’s whisked off against her will to a home for unwed mothers in Texas. Back in McCray, Washington, Greg Hart is one confused young man. His girlfriend vanished in the middle of the night without so much as a see ya later….no explanation and no phone call. When six long months brings no word from her, he hopes to put his broken heart behind him by serving his country in the U.S. Marines. After nearly dying during the birth of her child, Melinda can’t face returning to her hometown without her baby. She stays in Texas, eventually making a career out of being a live-in nanny for two children in a wealthy couple’s home. Thirty years later, Melinda is back in McCray to care for her ailing father. Within a few days she runs into Greg, now retired from the military and mayor of the tiny town. Immediate sparks erupt at their first meeting, rekindling the smoldering embers of a strong mutual attraction. Can the two of them bypass old feelings of anger, bitterness, and abandonment in order to find the most precious part of themselves? Hart’s Desire is a sweet, romantic short story that introduces characters you’ll meet throughout the rest of my La Fleur de Love series.
