After a year spent living in hiding—with no end in sight—Caroline Andrews wants to reclaim her life. But the lingering trauma from her days serving with the Marines leaves her afraid to trust the tempting logger who delivers friendship and the promise of something more.

Following an accident that nearly robbed him of his hopes for the future, Josh Summers believes life has given him a second chance. He wants to settle down with the woman who stole his attention and his heart. And he’s willing to wait until she’s ready to be more than “just friends.” When fear of discovery leaves Caroline pretending to be his date, Josh tempts her to try the real thing—a relationship built on trust, not lies.

But then the past threatens and Caroline must risk everything—including her freedom—to bury her demons before she can take a chance on happy-ever-after.

Big Buck’s Bar, the fictional setting for the Second Shot series, caters to Oregon loggers and college students. It’s known for its beer thanks to Josie, the heroine from SERVING TROUBLE (Second Shot #1). Then again, perhaps you’re not a beer drinker…after all the college and grad students who frequent the bar love a good Bloody Mary on Sundays, and Dominic, the hero of STIRRING ATTRACTION (Second Shot #2), enjoys a good martini. So if you’re thinking of ‘mixing it up’ while reading, here is Sara’s favorite cocktail recipe in honor of MIXING TEMPTATION. Enjoy!

Happy Reading Everyone!

Cover Reveal for HERO BY NIGHT, book 3 in the Independence Falls series by Sara Jane Stone

HERO BY NIGHT

Book 3 in the Independence Falls series

by Sara Jane Stone

Expected release on January 20, 2015 from Avon Impulse

He was nobody’s hero, until he landed in the wrong bed . . .

Armed with a golden retriever and a concealed weapons permit, Lena Clark is fighting for normal. She served her country, but the experience left her emotionally numb, afraid to be touched, and estranged from her career-military family. Staying in Independence Falls, and finding a job, seems like the first step to reclaiming her life and preparing for the upcoming medal ceremony, until the town playboy stumbles into her bed . . .

Chad Summers is living his dream-helicopter logging by day and slipping between the sheets with Mrs. Right Now by night. Until his wild nights threaten his day job, leaving Chad with a choice: prove he can settle down or kiss his dream job goodbye. But after a party, Chad ends up in bed with the one woman in Independence Falls he can’t touch. Too late he realizes the passionate sleeping beauty is the shy, struggling soldier his little sister befriended.

The playboy’s touch ignited something in her. And Lena is determined to find out if it is the man, and his wicked demands in the bedroom, or if she’s finally starting to heal. Chad is ready and willing to give into the primal desire to make Lena his at night-on one condition. By day, they pretend their relationship is real so he can show Independence Falls-and his boss-that he has shed his wild image. But their connection extends beyond the bedroom, threatening to turn their sham into reality-if Chad can prove he’s the hero Lena needs night and day . . . forever.
