Hearts Awakened

Seventeen years ago, Officer Mark Cook lost everything when his pregnant wife disappeared, leaving an aching hole where his heart used to be. Knowing he failed his family, he’s never allowed himself to get close to losing his heart again, so the last thing he expects or wants is to start having feelings for his best friend’s baby sister. Tori Calvert was attacked as a teenager, an event that shaped and changed her forever. All grown up now, she works as a rape crisis counselor and doesn’t venture much out of the shelter of her protective family. She’s known Mark forever and trusts him, but there’s always this fear getting in the way of what she wants. And what she wants is try and move forward, to see if together, she and Mark can heal their hearts and minds and find love.
