KATIE
(Book 3 in the Georgia Hearts series)
Blurb:
Troy Templeton
is returning home from a two-week Army Reserve training and witnesses
a car crash. He stops to help, discovering the driver unconscious and
a very scared two-year-old boy in the backseat. Katie Brinkley
is frantic about her missing son, especially when she learns her car
has been involved in a wreck. She arrives on the scene to see a large
man in Army fatigues holding her son...a man who reminds her of her
late husband. The last thing she needs is anyone else in her life who
has any connection to the military. Her mother, father and deceased
husband are enough. Troy is drawn to Katie, but the last thing he
needs is a ready-made family. He's not father material. Can both
learn to compromise and give their attraction a chance?
Excerpt:
Troy
stepped up beside her, Evan’s car seat dangling from one large
hand. “Are you okay?”
She
turned to face the man who had stepped into her life with an ease
that was almost frightening. He stood close—too close, but she
forced a stiff smile. “Yes, much better. For some reason, I felt
closed in and needed to get outside and could take a deep breath.”
He
nodded and reached out his hand to take hers, guiding her toward the
truck, but didn’t unlock it. He sat the car seat in the back and
then guided her toward the street corner where he pushed the button
to get the light to stop traffic.
“Where
are we going?”
“You
need to see The Square up close.”
His
touch was gentle, more like an invitation to join him than a demand.
She found herself following without protest. When the light changed,
they crossed and soon she was wandering among the heavenly scents of
rose bushes and magnolia blossoms.
Neither
spoke as they wandered, their fingers meshed, linking them while they
strolled. Several benches were occupied, but Troy directed her
toward one that seemed to be calling their names and then suggested
they stop and sit for a few minutes.
“This
is peaceful.”
“Umm.”
A nearby squirrel had his attention, but it didn’t take long for
him to look at her. “You know what? This is the very bench where
I asked Tracy Summers to go steady with me.”
She
chuckled. Troy had a way of saying the unexpected and keeping her
off balance. “Obviously it didn’t last…or did she turn you
down?”
“Oh
she said yes, but then a few weeks later she said yes to Tim
Ledbetter.”
His
exaggerated sigh and the obvious slumping of his shoulders told her
he was kidding around. “That’s too bad. Didn’t the best man
win?”
“Yes, as a matter of fact. I was fifteen at the time, but if you
knew Tracy now, you’d know I made a lucky escape.” His head was
back and he was laughing out loud now. “Be careful what you wish
for.”
