Her Secret Love (Love in Laughing Falls #1)
Jan Gallagher Dunn

Mark Hawthorne’s people skills are a little rusty. But why should it matter? It’s not like he has time for dating and romance. Being a single dad requires his full focus. So, he’s as surprised as everyone else in his small town when he finds himself attracted to his brother’s captivating new employee. Now all that’s left to decide is if the risk of opening his heart to someone again is worth the reward.
Barb Wyatt’s people skills are great. It’s not her fault her co-workers and their gossiping got her fired from her old job. That’s all in the past now, though. She’s determined to succeed at her new job. Hopefully her friendship with Mark (and her growing attachment to him) won’t fuel the gossip mill and ruin her fresh start.
If Mark and Barb want a shot at happily ever after, they’ll have to trust in love—and each other—to get it..
But what if trust is simply a luxury neither can afford after all they’ve been through?
