The Lake House - Hardcover

by Lori Foster (Author)

Second chances, surprising revelations, and sweet, unexpected love go hand-in-hand in the tiny lakeside town at the heart of this charming series from New York Times bestselling author Lori Foster.

A Simultaneous Hardcover Edition--Also Available as Trade Paperback Original

When Pixie Nolan first came to Bramble, Kentucky, the abandoned and desperate young single mother found hope, healing, and a fresh start. With the loving support of her best friends--Marlow Heddings and her handsome Marine husband, Cort--Pixie is now happily raising her toddler son in a cozy cottage, managing Marlow's thriving boutique, and designing firefly logo t-shirts that are selling like hotcakes. The past is behind her, and life is good.

She never expected to make an electrifying connection with a summer renter, a retired Navy SEAL with his own complicated past . . .

A rugged warrior with scars both seen and unseen, Brogan Rafferty arrives with an adorable baby girl in tow and settles into the lake house next door. And while he's a stunning addition to the gorgeous scenery, it's his caring devotion that captures Pixie's heart--the way he gently snuggles away the precious infant's cries, or swoops Pixie's delighted little boy high in the air with his tattooed, muscular arms.

But it's no coincidence that Brogan has found Pixie, and his startling revelations make it clear she's the key to healing old regrets and building new dreams. And when a hostile stranger turns up with shocking accusations against Bramble's new hometown hero, Pixie must put her own fears and heartbreak away for good--and learn what it truly means to trust.
