Sea Glass and Second Chances
As a popular TV host, Devon Tieks has seen firsthand how lives can be ruined by scandal. Too bad her father didn’t consider that before he and his mistress collided head on with it. While the paparazzi swarms and Devon fights to keep the salacious details of her father’s death private, she can’t help but question her politician boyfriend’s poorly timed proposal.

While Devon’s life is crumbling around her, her fiancé is busy protecting his image at all costs. Oz proves he’s steadfast, salt of the earth, and irresistible…but can she find a way to move forward with him when she left him behind with her past?
