BAD REPUTATION
A clean closed-door romance (New Haven Book 1)

A REPUTATION, A MISTAKE, AND YEARS OF SEPARATION.

Melanie Danvers thinks her life is on track. She has a successful career, great friends, and a special someone in her life. But when she least expects it, fate throws her a curveball—a face from the past—the man who deemed their one night together a mistake.

After eight years away, a temporary work contract brings Steven MacAlistar back to his hometown—a place to which he thought he’d never return. It only takes one encounter with Melanie to make him realize that despite the long absence, his heart has never left.

Inextricably linked, Melanie and Steven discover they have their own lessons to learn, mistakes to forgive, and fears to overcome before they can even hope for a future together. With all there is to lose and reputations to salvage, will Melanie and Steven finally take that bold leap of faith and get their happily ever after?

This is the first book in the New Haven series, following the lives of a group of people who are linked through family, friends, and coworkers. It can be read as a standalone. A happy ending is guaranteed, and there are no cliffhangers. (Fade to black, Physical Intimacy Level 3 & No Swearing.)
