Wild Goose Chase
Description
Chase Greenleaf made a promise: that he'd always take care of his best friend's widow. And he's kept it in the years since Todd's death. He quit his job as a firefighter, gave Violet a plum job on his peach farm; and plays super-dad to her two kids.
Nevermind the small matter of being in love with her. Coveting Violet is a shame he'll take to his grave. So he'll be her shoulder to cry on; her cool, quirky boss; her always-there-but-totally platonic friend.
But when Violet tenders her resignation for reasons she won't explain and new revelations come out about the fire that killed Todd, Chase's world is upended. Joining the investigation may help Violet win her battle against Todd's insurance company but it will trigger Chase's PTSD.
He'll stop at nothing to find justice for Todd, but can he stop the woman he loves from leaving? And will he risk everything to tell her the real reason why he can't let her go?
