After leaving my toxic boyfriend, I flee to my family vacation home in Swallow Cove. Which takes me directly into the brooding path of bar manager Brooks Riggins.
He's large and intimidating, but with a protective streak that I didn't see coming. When my ex gives me trouble, Brooks tells him to take a hike. Not only that, he also claims to be my new man.
Brooks is as straight as they come, but he's ready to step up and play the part. In fact, it may not just be pretend, judging by the way Brooks looks at me. Especially when he catches sight of me in the lingerie I sometimes wear. My ex said the lingerie made me too feminine. Too weak.
Just a pretty boy. But as Brooks hands me all the power I need to heal and be intimate again, I can finally see the truth. I am pretty boy, and doesn't make me weak at all.
In fact, I never have to be weak again. But can I be strong enough to trust another man with my heart? Pretty Buoy is Book 2 of Swallow Cove. It can be read as a standalone, but it may be more enjoyable to read Book 1 for an introduction to all the characters in the series. Trigger past abuse, toxic ex-boyfriend.
