He's an unlikely hero for any story, least of all hers. But this tatted single dad just might have a broken heart of gold beneath all his rough and ragged edges waiting for her to piece it back together.
Books have always been a welcome escape for Karma. A career editing romance novels just makes sense for the girl who craves love and fantasy and a world she can exercise a little control over. Bottom line, she likes a happy ending she can count on, and reality never seems to deliver.
Then there's Jensen.
Where Karma prefers to have her head in the clouds, unattached to the tumultuous roller-coaster of real life, Jensen seems to permanently walk around with a grey cloud over his head, a dark, rumbling thunder following wherever he goes.
And who could blame him? After losing his wife, it's all he can do to put one foot in front of the other to maintain a world his kids can still depend on. Bottom line, he's done with happy endings, he's just trying to survive the now.
Until Karma.
When their paths cross, the connection is undeniable. For the first time in a long while, both think they may still have a shot at the future. What they don't expect is to revisit the past. Old heartaches start to unravel and what both believed to be loose ends turn out to be entangled in ways neither could have imagined.
Now there's no escaping reality and little hope for happy ever after. But maybe all their story really needs is one more chapter.
