    The Trouble With Valentine's Day
    by Rachel Gibson

    It’s the one day each year when being single is a sin . . .

    The Trouble With Valentine’s Day?

    It just plain stinks!

    Kate Hamilton should know. Dumped by her boyfriend, burnt out by her job, she’s returned to Gospel, Idaho, where a Mountain Momma Crafters’ original poetry reading is about as good as it gets on a Friday night. Then her first attempted seduction of a hunky stranger is completely rejected. So much for her self-esteem!

    It turns out that Rob Sutter, former ice hockey madman, owner of Sutter’s Sports—and the hunky stranger who told her to get lost—has been more than burned by love and isn’t looking for a relationship. But then he and Kate find themselves in an ultra-compromising position in the M&S Market after-hours, giving the phrase “clean up in aisle five” a whole new meaning, and causing a whole lot of gossip in Gospel . . .



    Rachel Gibson's Bio

    Rachel Gibson was born in the Northwest and raised in a large family. Growing up, most evenings were spent fighting for a position in front of the family's black and white television. Being the youngest, Rachel never got to watch what she wanted and as a result grew up on Combat, Hogan's Heroes, and Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. By the time the family bought a color television, The Partridge Family was hot and so was David Cassidy. Rachel slept with David's picture taped to her ceiling and to this day can sing every word to "I Think I Love You."

    When Rachel isn't writing, she can be found with her husband and three children jet skiing on the many lakes and reservoirs around her home. She enjoys reading, watching hockey, and hogging the televison remote.
