Lion Dancing for Love
A Deerbourne Inn novella
Licking her wounds after a bad relationship, San Diego accountant Caitlyn Summers travels to Willow Springs to help her friend gear up for the annual Maple Sugar Ball. She isn't planning on staying long, but one encounter with the delicious Corey Duncan has her re-evaluating her plans.
Corey swore off love when his wife Annie died from breast cancer. Caitlyn is too young, too citified, and vibrates with a passion and energy that will upend the safe, comfortable rhythm of his life. Corey has to choose between playing it safe and taking a risk on love. Caitlyn needs to find the patience to let Corey lead. If not, the Maple Sugar Ball might end in a sticky mess, instead of a slow dance with the man who has captured her heart.
Will their fire burn hot enough to erase doubts and past hurts?
REVIEWS
Diving into the lives of these characters was a wonderful way to escape everyday life as I got caught up in their romance. Their back stories were interwoven in a believable way at just the right time (when I was dying to find out!) and the novel has a cast of warm, funny supporting characters that really added depth. A heartwarming, romantic read. I'll be back for more from Laura Boon. - Michelle, Amazon, 5 stars
The main characters are great - I love a sassy heroine. So much better than some of the rollovers one can find in this genre. I look forward to Laura Boon’s next novel. - Sally, Amazon, 5 stars
The sex scenes were both hot and heartfelt, showing the healing process. I would definitely like to read more books by Ms. Boon. - AD, Amazon, 4 stars
