Sheltered from Love

Paradise, pies, and possibilities. Will Georgia give love a second chance?

Georgia Weber's debilitating guilt dictates her every move. Ever since her husband died on her watch, she doesn't trust herself to care for any living thing. But she's tired of spending long evenings alone. So, when the friendly, pie-baking, fellow volunteer asks her to join him for a meal, she convinces herself he will be nothing more than a supper companion.

Romel Bautista grapples with his role as a parent. Since his divorce, he's chosen to steer clear of women. All that changes the day he meets Georgia. He falls headlong and imagines a forever commitment. Regrettably, his teenage daughter has other plans for his future.

Georgia can't deny she's falling for Romel, but she can't even trust herself to take care of a pet. How can she commit to anyone long-term? And though Romel yearns to be with Georgia, his heart is torn between compromising his relationship with his daughter or being with the woman he loves.

Will Georgia and Romel be able to overcome their fears and build a life together?
