SAFE HAVEN

A young woman with secrets finds home, community and a potential new love in a small North Carolina beach town; now if she can only rid herself of a past that haunts her, she may just have the life she’s always longed for.

No one in Southport, N.C., seems too concerned with the fact that Katie wants to keep to herself, even if it is a small town, and she’s a mysterious, pretty woman. But since there’s only one attractive, eligible man in the whole town—Alex, the widowed owner of the town’s general store—then it only makes sense that the two would notice each other. Throw in a couple of events that allow Katie to show herself as a woman of character (despite her secretive ways) and Alex to represent a perfect man, and of course, the two of them will wind up on the path to true love. Especially since she’s great with kids, and he just happens to have two of them, to whom he is a gentle, wonderful father with the patience of a saint. But, alas, Katie is a woman with secrets, and that generally means that there is someone out there looking for her. Since Katie lives in a tiny, isolated shack in the middle of nowhere, it’s a good thing she likes her quirky new neighbor, Jo. Jo encourages her to become more invested in Alex, who, everyone knows, is a good man. Romance progresses. A haunting past life catches up with Katie with frightening consequences. Love prevails. 

An emotionally wrenching story with a dramatic happily-ever-after.
