Ly to Me: A Second Chance Dark Country Romance

Ten years is a long time to nurse a wound — and Carver Roland has had ten years to perfect his revenge.

When Lyra Thomas returns to the small town of Alliston Springs, she expects tension. She expects whispers. What she doesn't expect is the boy she once loved — now a broad-shouldered, tattooed force of nature with ice in his eyes and fury barely leashed beneath the surface. The Carver she knew is gone. The man standing in his place wants answers, and he's not above using her to get them.

Trapped in a thirty-day arrangement that balances on the razor's edge of power and buried desire, Lyra has no choice but to play along. The rules are his. The terms are ruthless. But the heat building between them? That belongs to something far older than either of them wants to admit.

Set against the raw, dust-and-diesel landscape of rural country life, *Ly to Me* is a dark, achingly sensual second-chance romance where old scars and new sins collide. Clover and Portman craft a volatile push-and-pull between two people who know exactly how to hurt each other — and exactly how to make each other burn. The secrets that tore them apart a decade ago are still very much alive, and the truth, when it surfaces, will change everything.

For readers who like their romance rough around the edges and impossible to put down, this one doesn't let go.
