Blindsided

The first in a new series from USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison, the owner of Spring Bluff’s new bookstore is falling hard for the one man she knows is off limits, and when he learns who she is he may never forgive her.

Five years ago, Esme Chastain’s life came crashing down when she discovered her husband’s affair. She got divorced, got over him, and moved on. Now, she’s living her dream of opening a bookstore in the charming small town of Spring Bluff with her sister and Nanny by her side. When she walks into the local bar, she bumps into Rowan Hayes, the very last man she expected to see again. The attraction is instant, hot, and mutual, but there’s a problem: he doesn’t realize who she is.

Rowan was days away from marrying the love of his life when a mysterious woman showed up at his door. She told him his fiancée was having an affair with her husband, and got pregnant. Before he could process the words or get a good look at her, she was gone, leaving devastation and an envelope of evidence in her wake. Moving back to his hometown, where he has the support of family and everyone knows him, has helped him heal from the heartbreak. And now he’s met Esme, who makes him feel as though he may be ready to risk falling in love again.

The more time Esme and Rowan spend together, the clearer it becomes that they fit perfectly, in and out of the bedroom. She knows she has to tell him of their past connection. She also knows that when she does he’ll want nothing to do with her. And she’s right. She’s the woman who blew up his life and stole his happiness. Neither of them would have chosen the other to be their soul mate, but fate has left them Blindsided by Love …
