    About this series

    I never moved on. I tried, but I couldn’t. I will spend my entire life loving her even if she’s determined to leave me. She’s Juliet and I’m Romeo.

    Claire

    Just when things between mom and I seem to be getting better, Rose has a scare that lands her in the hospital. So I pack up my bags and head to the only place I can think of that will take me and a pregnant dog in…Jax.

    Of course, he answers the door in just a towel with his hair damp and his chest glistening from water droplets. I regain my senses and ask him for a place to stay while I sort out my life. He agrees, his only condition: I work my room and board off at his pub.

    Seems easy enough. Until I see just how popular he is with the ladies and I hate that those pesky twinges of jealousy rise up in my chest when I see him enjoying that attention.

    One drunken night, I ask Jax if his lips feel the same as they did when we were dating as teens. His gaze turns dark as he stares at me and asks, “Do you want me to kiss you, Claire?”

    I know how our story ends. I’ve lived it before. Fate doesn’t want us together. Ever.

    Juniper

    I’m determined to put my life with Steve behind me. I haven’t told my parents what happened with Steve. My black eye speaks volumes all on its own.

    When Steve calls me and says he’s sorry for what he did and wants to talk, I agree. It’s the least I can do. Mom and dad don’t want

    me to go, but I’m an adult, I can make these decisions on my own. Until mom suggests that I take the new hire with me. His name is Boone and he looks like he belongs on the battlefield, not stocking shelves.

    Not wanting to start a fight, I agree. But when Boone doesn’t leave my side, my parents plan starts to unfold. In the small town of Harmony Island, they found me a bone fide bodyguard.

    My future doesn’t include Steve until…it does.

      I finally got Shelby back into my life and I'll be damned if I lose her again. I'll find a way to make everyone happy...I have to. Shelby I thought I was getting stronger, but now, I'm not so sure. Tamara is back in Miles' life and I want to say that it doesn't affect us--that he loves me and that is all that should matter--but every time I see Belle, I see myself. I would give anything to change the circumstance of my childhood and if there's a chance that Miles and Tamara can make it work, I wouldn't forgive myself if I stood in their way. Miles thinks there's a way for everyone to be happy...but I'm not so sure. And I don't think it's a risk I'm willing to take. Abigail I thought I was content with my life. My business is booming. I have a boyfriend. Sabrina is coming out of the darkness that seemed to have taken over her since Samuel's birth. But for some reason, I'm not happy. I blame Bash. I hate that he's randomly showing up at the shop as if he's trying to protect me. I hate that he's in their kitchen apartment, shirtless, with a dark, hooded look in his eyes, while Anders in distracted by videos games and beer in his room. But I really hate that when I need someone the most, Bash is the one that shows up to help me. And when I find out what he did for Sabrina? I hate him even more. This story is told through 4 different points of view. Shelby, Miles, Abigail, and Bash. It's a story of romance and friendships between women. If you liked the Netflix show, Sweet Magnolias, you'll love this series!
