A marine archeologist takes a break from her adventurous life to dive deep into the mysteries of love.
Charlotte Bennett is more comfortable exploring sunken wreckage than exploring a relationship. But as her cousin Samantha’s maid of honor, she finds a new perspective on her nomadic, solitary life. In need of a quiet refuge, Charlotte offers to stay in Knights Bridge, Massachusetts and look after the Red Clover Inn while Sam and Justin are on their honeymoon. While the quaint inn is closed to the public, Charlotte will have time to plan her next project—and perhaps discover how her cousin found love. But the tranquility is disrupted when Greg shows up at the inn. The Diplomatic Security Service agent lives a dangerous life, and he, too, wants to clear his head before his next assignment. Juggling work, raising his two teenage children, and nursing a wounded heart has left Greg jaded. The last thing he expects is to fall for the willful Charlotte. Now each of them must decide if they can put love first before it’s too late. The author’s inspiration for the location of her book’s series:
“Knights Bridge is fictional, but the area where it’s located is real. Our family homestead is on the edge of Quabbin Reservoir, a huge pre-World War II project that changed this part of New England forever. As a kid, I’d climb a tree with pad and pen and look out at the Quabbin ‘accidental wilderness,’ as I wrote, imagining the lives of the people who’d lived in the small towns razed to create the reservoir. I also spent countless hours in my hometown library, which is the inspiration for the Knights Bridge library—including the rumors that it’s haunted.”
