Falling in love with one of those friends? Um . . . (check)

Stevie has everything she wants, except the one thing that matters most: her friend and roommate, Angie. But the shadows of Angie’s past have a long reach, and even though everyone in the small town of Seal Cove knows Stevie and Angie have been in love for years, none of that matters if Angie herself isn’t willing to take the risk.

Risk, as far as Angie is concerned, equals loss. She once risked everything by telling the truth–and that ended badly. Very badly. Friendship is the only thing that has ever worked out for her. She can’t afford to lose Stevie–even at the expense of her own happiness.

However, when their other roommates move out of the house, each finds it harder and harder to resist their feelings. Angie must decide if the scars of her past will dictate her future, and Stevie will need to accept that sometimes, people need to save themselves.

Windlass is Book #3 of Burke’s Seal Cove Romance series—it follows Spindrift & Nightide.

It will be available in eBook, paperback & audiobook formats.
