The Emperor

Chloe Liese

Two best friends. One unexpected summer. A plot twist they didn’t see coming. . . 
 
Bookseller Thea never thought she'd meet her best friend through her ex-husband. But that’s exactly how she ended up with Alex – a world renown chef and single dad who charms everyone he meets. They vowed that romance would never ruin their friendship, and two years later, they are inseparable. 
 
So much so, that when their exes invite them both on a “family” beach vacation – Alex’s daughter and Thea’s dog in tow – they reluctantly agree. 
 
Theirs didn't start as a love story. But as blistering beach days melt into slow golden evenings, Thea and Alex find themselves confronting feelings that might just lead them to the last place they ever expected: a happy ending.

Happy Ending

Braedyn Winslow never expected to return to Starlight Grove—the town that took everything from her. Not after her best friend, the one who’d sacrificed so much for her, vanished without a trace. But with a young son to raise and a past that won’t stay buried, Brae is back…and determined to uncover the truth. 
 
She just didn’t count on the brooding, reclusive mountain man living next door. 
 
Dex Archer is the stuff of local legend—silent, rugged, and surrounded by whispers of his and his brothers’ violent father. But Brae sees through the scowl and his parentage to the man beneath: fiercely loyal, unexpectedly kind…and just dangerous enough to protect her when someone starts warning her off her search. 
 
The closer she gets to the truth, the harder it is to stay away from Dex. And as things get more perilous, Brae realizes the only person she can rely on is the one man who swore never to trust again. 
 
Only someone isn’t happy that Brae has been digging, and they’ll do anything to stop her. But Dex? He’ll do anything to save her, even slip back into the dark.
