Nottoway

White Lightning

Rate this book
Clarice Jarrod has it all — well almost. She has the job of her dreams, and she’s just purchased a cute little two-bedroom house with loads of character in Nottoway, Virginia. So why is someone terrorizing her? It isn’t until strange things begin to happen that she discovers the previous owner operated a whiskey still and was murdered there thirty-five years ago. And someone wants her gone.

One of Nottoway’s most eligible and confirmed bachelors, Tylan Chance, sold her the house and feels responsible for the sassy teacher’s dilemma. But he quickly finds himself attracted to her. Burned once by a previous marriage, Tylan is cautious of relationships. As he helps Clarice search for the culprit, his resolve is tested in the face of his desire for her.

About the author

Candice Poarch

34 books17 followers
Even as a child Candice Poarch was a dreamer and created scenes in her mind. She quickly fell in love with writing stories centered around families and romance. The quest for love is universal, she says. Being familiar with rural Virginia, she portrays a sense of community and mutual support in her novels, many of which are set in small-town America.

Candice grew up in Stony Creek, Virginia, south of Richmond, but now resides in northern Virginia. She has been married for thirty years and is the mother of three children. A former computer-systems manager, she has now made writing her full-time career.

Moonshine

The Ghost and the Moonshine is what this should have been called. Clarice had one more time to see the ghost and I was going to be putting this book to the side. Thank God for Tylan. It was definitely a love worth waiting for.
