Second True Love

Taking in my friend's sister as a short-term tenant shouldn't be a problem — except the young fashionista, Clementine Hawthorne, is nothing like what I expected.

From bonding instantly with my teenage daughter to breaking every house rule within the first twenty-four hours, she disrupts the quiet of my life. She moves around in her flimsy nightshirts, waiting for me to order her dinner as if she's not a tenant but my pet kitten.

It doesn't take long for her sparkling, sunshine persona to find a place in my daughter's heart. And before I know it, Clementine is coming for me.

With every kiss, she mends my cracked heart, stealing a piece for herself. For the first time in a decade, the other side of my bed isn't empty or cold. But it's outside the bedroom — where she truly shines — repeating the lines of my dead wife and making me question if there might be more than one soulmate meant for me in this lifetime.

But how can a woman fifteen years younger be mine? Has the universe given me a second chance to find my true love?
