Everybody loves local attorney and favorite son, Ben
Laroux. Well, at least everybody of the female persuasion–until he meets
Sabine O'Connor. She loathes him and makes no secret of her feelings, even when
he pours on his famous charm hoping to thank her for helping his family. Ben
has never been told no, and if there's one thing he's never walked away from,
it's a challenge.
Sabine hopes she’s finally found peace and safety in the small town of
Ministry. She’s changed her name to escape her painful past and her shameful
family secrets. Ben Laroux is a gorgeous and sexy complication she can’t
afford, but also can't resist. However, when her past threatens to derail her
present and future, Ben might be the only man she can trust.

She fought the urge like
mad to scoot closer to her potential client and find out what lay beneath those
blue plaid boxers. Her good sense and professionalism warred with her very
long-ignored womanly needs.
“Are you having sexy
thoughts about me?” Ben asked, breaking into her sexy thoughts. Because his
sexy had returned.
“Huh? Of course—not.” Her
eyes were unfocused.
“You are. You want to sit
on my lap again,” he accused.
“That—wouldn’t be wise.”
But God, it would feel so good.
“Stop it! I’m asking for
help, here, and you want to climb the tower of Ben.”
“Okay, this isn’t headed
anywhere good,” Sabine said.
“Make you a deal.” He
appeared deadly serious.
“I’m listening.”
“You stay here tonight—”
He held up a hand to stop her shocked protest. “Listen. I’m suggesting I sleep off
my beers, make a call to my buddy to have your car cleaned, and we discuss
plans for my therapy. And I’ll make eggs in the morning. If you still look at
me like that after I’ve sobered up, then, I’ll have no choice but to kiss you
again.”
She couldn’t really see a
flaw in his plan. Certainly, there were many, but right now, she was seriously
charmed by a stinky, post-vomitous guy with a great house. “Um. I’m not sure
that’s wise.”
“Why?”
“Because I’m a little distracted by your
sitting there in your underwear.”
His eyes changed, the
atmosphere between them became charged. “I knew it.”
“Go take a shower and
brush your teeth.”
Both laughed at that.
Sabine had no idea where this might lead, but either way, she was certain it
was a bad idea. Bad.

Sands began
writing on her fortieth birthday. Better than a hot young boyfriend or a red
convertible as mid-life crises go. Her first Southern women’s fiction
title, Again, Alabama, was published a mere eight years later, with
the second, Love, Alabama, and her latest, Forever, Alabama,
following closely behind. Growing up in a small town in Louisiana, Susan's
passion for reading sparked her interest in writing. She now creates stories
about the quirky characters and fascinating relationships that are uniquely
Southern.
Susan
holds a degree in elementary education, and has lived in the Johns
Creek/Alpharetta suburb of Atlanta with her husband and three children for over
twenty years.
