Jarod's Heart: A King Brothers Novel

Written by Elise Manion

Narrated by Meritt North

Sometimes your future is right in front of your eyes...

You'd think that, as the oldest brother in the King family and the youngest elected sheriff in Timbisha County, Jarod King would be living on cloud nine, but you’d be wrong. Ever since Miranda left him five years ago for her drug dealer, Jarod has barely been existing, faking smiles and civility for his family’s sake. Women are like Kryptonite to him, unless they’re helping his department run smoothly—like Lauren Lockwood, his secretary by day and royal pain by night. 

You'd also think that Lauren, working as administrative assistant to Jarod King, the man she’s loved since the day she laid her young eyes on him, would be on cloud nine, but you’d be wrong. Ever since Miranda broke his heart with her deception, he’s almost impossible to get along with—let alone love.

But when someone from Jarod’s past enters their lives, and the drug dealings that destroyed his marriage set up shop in their small town, Lauren and Jarod will be forced to face the feelings that have been brewing inside them since the day they met. He’ll have to trust Lauren with the fragile pieces of his heart. Lauren will have to find the courage to give him what he needs, if she wants her greatest dream to come true.

Elise, her husband of two and a half decades, and Franklin the weenie dog, are recent empty-nesters living in northern Nevada. She used to live with her adult son and an aspiring rock star they found living in his car. With so many males in the house, Elise developed a passion for reading and writing romance fiction. With the guidance of her publisher, BHC Press, Elise has written two novels in her King Brothers trilogy and a short story for the anthology A Winter’s Romance. She is currently working on Josh’s Challenge, the third installment in the King Brothers trilogy and a paranormal romance that keeps invading her nightmares. You can find Elise on the normal social media haunts like Facebook and Twitter, but she prefers Instagram, and has recently become addicted to SnapChat as jackswritermom. You can also read more about Elise on her official website. Having lived with life’s little ups and downs lately, Elise feels that there’s only so much a woman can take before she flies from reality into the pages of an awesome book. And if she can’t find an awesome book? Then she writes one of her own.
