A marine archeologist takes a break from her adventurous life to dive deep into the mysteries of love in this charming New England romance.

Charlotte Bennett is more comfortable exploring sunken wreckage than exploring a relationship. But as her cousin Samantha’s maid of honor, she finds a new perspective on her nomadic, solitary life. In need of a quiet refuge, Charlotte offers to stay in Knights Bridge, Massachusetts and look after the Red Clover Inn while Sam and Justin are on their honeymoon.

While the quaint inn is closed to the public, Charlotte will have time to plan her next project—and perhaps discover how her cousin found love. But the tranquility is disrupted when Greg shows up at the inn. The Diplomatic Security Service agent lives a dangerous life, and he, too, wants to clear his head before his next assignment.

Juggling work, raising his two teenage children, and nursing a wounded heart has left Greg jaded. The last thing he expects is to fall for the willful Charlotte. Now each of them must decide if they can put love first before it’s too late.

Inspired by Picasso’s great masterpiece Guernica, New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards returns with a riveting story of love, intrigue, deception and bravery in the face of war…

On an April day in 1937, the sky opens and fire rains down upon the small Spanish town of Guernica. Seventeen-year-old Sibi and her family are caught up in the horror. Griff, an American military attaché, pulls Sibi from the wreckage, and it’s only the first time he saves her life in a span of hours. When Germany claims no involvement in the attack, insisting the Spanish Republic was responsible, Griff guides Sibi to lie to Nazi officials. If she or her sisters reveal that they saw planes bearing swastikas, the gestapo will silence them—by any means necessary.

As war begins to rage across Europe, Sibi joins the underground resistance, secretly exchanging information with Griff. But as the scope of Germany’s ambitions becomes clear, maintaining the facade of a Nazi sympathizer becomes ever more difficult. And as Sibi is drawn deeper into a web of secrets, she must find a way to outwit an enemy that threatens to decimate her family once and for all.

I have sinful thoughts about one of my students. Every night. I picture her in my bed. In my shower. Underneath me. Right up against the chalkboard. I’m especially fond of that one.

In my defense, I know her thoughts are as sinful as mine. She’s begging me with her beautiful blue eyes. She’s daring me to cross the line.

No, I’m not a good man. And I’m done pretending to be. I know exactly what I’m going to do to her as soon as she walks into my office hours…
