The Ring

~ Carla Standish makes wishes come true for everyone but herself. Widower Jared Barnett and his kids have won her heart. But is the future possible without forgiving the past? ~

Carla Standish is the go-to person for whatever her friends and family need, and is world-renowned for creating one-of-a-kind, swoon worthy dresses. She's even surprising herself and the folks in town by dating a decent guy these days. If one missing piece would fall into the jigsaw puzzle of her life, everything would be perfect. But she ruined that possibility long ago, didn't she?

It's been a couple of years since widower Jared Barnett and his kids moved to Serendipity for a much-needed new start. They were settling in, but now he's getting some confusing signals from the vivacious shop owner he's dating, and the small town "good old boy" network seems determined to treat the Barnetts as outsiders. An offer he shouldn't refuse would mean pulling up stakes again, but Jared will do whatever is required to take care of his family, and to protect his own heart.
