Two people from
opposite worlds, one unforgettable kiss.
You can't judge a carny by its cover.

Blurb:
At a town fair on the coast of Oregon, handsome Native American
carny, Vincent Youngblood, bestows an unforgettable kiss on shy, awkward
teenager, Charlotte Davenport. Then disappears without another word, leaving
her baffled and enamored.
Ten
years later, Charlotte is still living in the small fishing town of Astoria,
while being trained to--reluctantly--take over for her philandering hotelier father
when he retires. After all, who else will do it? Her two perfect sisters are
busy being married to their flawless husbands and having cookie cutter
children, while Charlotte remains single, childless, and every bit as mousy as
she was a decade ago.
As
Charlotte struggles to climb out from underneath her judgmental parents thumb,
the carnival rolls back into town, and Charlotte finds herself face to face
with Vin again. He's back to run his father's carnival, walking away from a
promising career in medicine he started in Chicago. Will her biased and
judgmental family accept her relationship with a man who is not only a Native
American, but works as a carny for a living? And what unsavory secrets bind the
well-educated and seemingly superlative Vin to that ramshackle carnival? After
all, you can’t judge a carny by its cover.
Special Teaser Quote!
"“You know,
the neighbors will talk if they see you slipping into the house in the morning
like this.” My dad’s voice yanked me out of my memories, and I squeezed the
railing until my knuckles went white. Without turning around, I said calmly,
“The neighbors didn’t see me. It’s five thirty in the morning.” I could
practically feel him frowning at the back of my head. “You’ve got some nerve sneaking
in here like this. What kind of a woman stays out all night?”
“A woman who is
twenty eight years old.” I turned around and faced my father."
