Ex-con Declan Mills bursts into town on an good-will errand believing he is reuniting a father and daughter, but the miss-lead adventure almost landed him back in jail. Something doomed to happen anyway since he has no job, no income, and no way to make restitution for his former crime. Tranquil Maple Nursery owner, Felicia Hughes, spends her life tending to plants, her Nana after her stroke, her friends, and any stray she can find, but little time caring for herself. But when her plants don’t show for the filming of Bronx Revard’s new segment on Tranquil Maple she nearly breaks from the stress until Declan offers his camper to transport everything in time. Desperate for help to keep up with the demands of business and caring for her Nana, she offers Declan a job that has to accept if he has any hope of making his first restitution payment to the courts in time. But when the town elders and Felicia’s friends want the man who brought trouble to Sugar Maple run out of town, can she show them, and Declan, that he’s not only a good man, he’s the right man-for her.

Silver Edge

By: Ciara Knight

All I’ve ever wanted is to fit in. But no one can ever see past how weird I am. Bright lights? Can’t stand them. Loud noises? Definitely sends me over the edge. And touching? Forget about it. At least, until I met Drake. From the moment I walked into that nightclub, I finally felt like I belonged somewhere. And when Drake touched me, it didn’t send me into a tailspin of sensations that I couldn’t stand. It actually felt...nice. Like something I could get used to. And it doesn’t hurt that he’s probably the hottest guy I’ve ever seen. But now someone wants to close the club down. And since I promised Drake that I’d help him keep it open, I’m going to have to find a way to tap into whatever that inner strength thing is that everyone always talks about. And fast. But what happens if I can’t?
