He likes her. She likes him. There’s only one problem: his mother.
Will Bennett hates to fail, and for most of his life, he’s managed to avoid any horrible disasters. That’s no easy task when building a business, taking on the largest building project he’s attempted to date, helping his little sister start her adult life, and keeping his Jane-Austen-loving, when-are-you-going-to-marry mother from driving him crazy.
Lacey Welsh is cautious, protective, and just the sort of lady Will might consider as his happily ever after. But how does a guy get to know a girl and decide if she is “the one” when he has a mother who tends to go overboard at the smallest hint of a romantic entanglement for one of her boys? According to Will, the answer is simple: keep your girlfriend a secret.
If Will thought steering clear of disaster before adding in the secret relationship was hard, now, it just might be impossible.
Annilee Nelson writes faith-filled sweet romances from a cozy corner in the living room of her just-outside-of-Halfax-Nova-Scotia home. She is a life-long lover of stories with her favorite sorts being those that include families, groups of friends, and, of course, romance. Like Mrs. Bennett in the Hatfield Falls series, Annilee loves Jane Austen, though not enough to name her children after Miss Austen’s characters.View all by Annilee Nelson
