Holding Her Heart (Serenity Bay #5)

Player Prentice. It's the nickname Adam Prentice has carried for years. A reputation that he's carved well for himself. Except it's a reputation based on a lie. Most people think he's the life of the party, always one for a good time, never serious and can't hold down a relationship. And he's more than happy to be known as Serenity Bay's player and practical joker. Because beneath his carefree attitude, is a ton of hurt he's tried to forget.

Barista Josie Pascoe can't stand the local police officer. His wisecracks and smart-alec comments aren't funny. They're downright annoying, and she wishes he'd just grow up. She wishes her family would grow up too, and stop relying on her to solve their problems.

When a family crisis arises, Josie needs help. Adam Prentice is the last person she wants to ask. And the last thing she needs is his charity to drive her to visit her family. Dealing with her family's issues is enough trouble on its own without throwing the wise-cracking cop into the mix. But she's desperate, and surely it won't be that hard to share the journey with him.

Will the road ahead be smooth sailing, or filled with twists and turns that uncover secrets they've both kept hidden?

Holding Her Heart is a sweet contemporary romance in The Serenity Bay series. All books can be read as standalone.
