The Heartbreak Sheriff

Book excerpt: From a New York Times–bestselling author, a single mother is arrested for murder by the cop she was once in love with in this romantic suspense novel. Single mom Sarah Connelly can’t believe it when her ex-boyfriend arrests her. Sheriff Patrick “Finn” Finnegan keeps assuring Sarah he’ll get her out of trouble, but her trust in him was annihilated long ago. Still, just being in his larger-than-life presence sets Sarah’s pulse racing. . . . Finn knows in his heart Sarah is innocent of murdering smalltown bad-girl Teresa Donovan. But he can’t ignore the overwhelming evidence against Sarah—nor the desire he still feels for her. Somehow he’s got to find the real killer and convince the only woman he’ll ever love to give him a second chance.
