Subjects: Mothers and sons, Single mothers, Fiction

Description: Desperate for a new start in life, Lily Holt grits her teeth and reluctantly travels the road back home with her teenage son, Riley. But she's still waiting to exhale because Riley is getting into trouble again. Hoping a job at the local marina will straighten him out, Lily never expects his "mean boss" to be Clay Winters, the man who broke her heart fourteen years ago. With brown eyes that haunt her and broad shoulders that can carry the world, he makes her feel like no other can. Good sense warns her to stay away, but a mother's instinct tells her he can help with her son ... and a woman's long-buried desire aches for his touch.
