Author Description

Doug Lumous has ghosts. Horrifying, invasive ghosts that have held dominion over his life for far too long. They’ve stunted his growth for years, almost costing him his job on the SWAT team any number of times. But he’s rolled with those punches because, well, he always has his Orono PD career to fall back on. And he knows that exorcising his demons will take a huge amount of effort, and he’s never been motivated to try. But now…the impetus is suddenly right in front of him in the form of an angelic, fairy-like sprite who makes him think about…more. He’s never wanted “normal” so badly before in his entire life. Pixie has been burnt, but she’s managed to cobble along, at least outwardly looking like she has her life in order. She’s a teacher. She has a best friend. She adores her family. But she longs for the one thing that’s always been missing. A love she can call her own. It shouldn’t be so hard, but Pixie has a difficult time trusting men due to the horrific incident that changed her both inside and out, when she was young. Can the handsome, troubled officer in blue be the one who finally ends her long, self-imposed isolation from the opposite sex? It’s possible, because she not only trusts him—an anomaly in itself—but he makes her feel more alive than she has in years. Now if she can just convince him to take a chance.
