Finding Freedom

Nick Dennis, a mystery writer who's gone where he wanted and done what he liked, has never had a serious relationship. Celeste Harte, a widow who's always met others' expectations, is looking for a romantic man.

Nick is secretly trying to write a romance novel on a bet but can't get inside his heroine's head. She wants to become a free spirit. When he tells Celeste he doesn't understand women, she thinks he's joking. When he offers to turn her life around, she knows he can turn it upside down but can't resist.

Celeste Harte wished for a fairy tale romance, and Prince Charming turned out to be a cheating toad. Wiser now, she wished on this year's birthday candles she'd find a man who would turn her life into a sizzling romance novel. Does such a man exist? When dangerously sexy Nick Dennis offers to turn her life around, she knows he could turn it upside down, but can she say no to this romantic stranger?
