Successful jewelry designer Melody Nolan's work is her life. But while she loves her job, she can't help but want more...like local chief of police Spence Hogan. Years ago, after one perfect summer night together, he broke her heart and she put as much distance between them as possible in little Bliss County. But when they are forced into close proximity at her best friend's wedding, the chemistry is as strong as ever.

Spence is a good cop who isn't scared of anything---except love. And he's done everything he can to preserve his reputation as a heartbreaker---a reputation that keeps commitment seekers at bay. And yet...there's something about Melody he can't forget. Something his heart can't ignore.

Linda Lael Miller's Bio

The Daughter of a Town Marshall

Linda Lael Miller is a #1New York TimesandUSA TODAYbestselling author of more than 100 historical and contemporary novels, most of which reflect her love of the West. Raised in Northport, WA , Linda pursued her wanderlust, living in London, Florence and Venice, and traveling to many other parts of the world as well, including Israel, Thailand, Hong Kong and Bali. After living in Port Orchard, WA for twenty years, Linda moved to Arizona, living first in Scottsdale and then on a horse property outside Cave Creek. She moved back to Spokane, the city where she was born, after eight years, having written several books set in Arizona. Presently, she downsized, and now lives in the San Diego area, near her daughter and son-in-law, Wendy and Jeremy, with her two dogs, Tule and Mowgli.

Linda's Story

Linda traces the birth of her writing career to the day when a Northport teacher told her that the stories she was writing were good, that she just might have a future in writing. Later, when she decided to write novels, she endured her share of rejection before she sold Fletcher's Woman in 1983 to Pocket Books. Since then, Linda has successfully published historicals, contemporaries, paranormals, mysteries and thrillers before coming home, in a literal sense, and concentrating on novels with a Western flavor. For her devotion to her craft, the Romance Writers of America awarded her their prestigious Nora Roberts Lifetime Achievement Award in 2007. Long a passionate Civil War buff, Linda has studied the era avidly for almost thirty years. She has read literally hundreds of books on the subject, explored numerous battlegrounds and made many visits to her favorite, Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, where she has witnessed re-enactments of the legendary clash between North and South. Linda explores that turbulent time in The Yankee Widow, a May 7, 2019 hardcover, also available in digital and audiobook formats.

The First Lady of the West

Dedicated to helping others, "The First Lady of the West" personally financed fifteen years of her Linda Lael Miller Scholarships for Women, which she awarded to women 25 years and older who were seeking to improve their lot in life through education. She anticipates that her next charitable endeavors will benefit four-legged critters.
