Broken Promise

He destroyed her career and broke his promise. Now they're stuck planning a fundraiser together-and she still won't forgive him.

Colin Monahan ruined Piper Rose's life.

He didn't mean to. But when he negotiated a corporate deal that wiped out the bakery where she worked-where she was about to become partner-it didn't matter. She lost everything. Her job. Her future. Her trust in the man who'd promised to choose her.

Then he chose work instead. And left.

Piper rebuilt from the ground up. She opened her own bakery in Windsor Peak, made friends who became family, and locked her heart up so tight no one could hurt her again. Especially not Colin Monahan.

But Colin showed up in Windsor Peak. He moved there to be near his family-and to wait. Because Piper won't talk to him. Won't look at him. She's been dodging him for months, skipping dinners and bailing on plans with his sister Finley-her best friend-just to avoid being in the same room as him. Finley has no idea why. Until she does.

Now they're stuck working together. The town's volunteer rescue squad needs a fundraiser, and somehow Colin and Piper have been roped into planning a romantic Valentine's Day getaway to raffle off. Which means weeks of forced proximity, old wounds resurfacing, and sparks they both swore were dead.

But some promises are worth fighting for. Even the broken ones.

Can two people who hurt each other find their way back? Or are some betrayals too deep to forgive?

A closed-door, second-chance, best-friends brother romance set in the beloved town of Windsor Peak. Perfect for fans of Nora Roberts and Robyn Carr.
