In a Heartbeat by Lori Paige
New York reporter Alix McKenzie never expected to find herself back in the small Vermont town she had left behind years before. She also never expected to find herself working on her uncle’s small-town newspaper alongside her childhood nemesis, Devlin Reed, who is no longer the gangly teenager she sparred with over a decade ago. Now he’s a grown man who interests her very much…and he seems to return her interest. But their newfound truce is threatened when they uncover a dangerous conspiracy, and old secrets resurface. Though trust doesn’t come easily to either one of them, they must learn to believe in each other or lose everything…maybe even their lives. Read the novel here.
