Lost Love

About this book

Some women carry their secrets in a diary. Tara Joy Tillotson carries hers in a long strand of pearls and forty years of prayers, asking for help she has never quite accepted. In Hot Springs, South Dakota, running a tool rental shop and volunteering at the local pregnancy center keeps a woman busy. It does not keep her safe from the sheriff who has loved her since they were sixteen, or from the morning the pregnancy center turns up splattered with spray-painted slogans and one very deliberate, very strange, capitalized letter hidden in plan sight. He shows up before the paint has dried. Six-foot-five in cowboy boots, pressed Wranglers, and a dimple that only appears when he smiles. Forty-three years of patience that has never quite run out. As the vandalism investigation deepens into something far more dangerous, so does the territory between them. The closer Tara gets to the truth of who's targeting the pregnancy center, the closer everything she has held back for a lifetime comes to the surface. Perfect for readers who love a slow-burn second chance romance, faith-laced cozy mystery, and small towns where the past never quite stays buried. Some things buried do not stay that way.
