Serenity's Song Cathryn Hein

He's got a history of bad decisions--is he finally about to make the right one?

Jesse Hargraves can't outrun his notorious bad boy reputation. Betrayed by a woman he trusted, he retreats to his hometown, Wirralong, to serve as his brother's best man and rebuild his life. But change isn't easy, and it's even harder when Jesse has to fight his fierce attraction to the maid of honour--a woman well aware of the darkness in his past.

Beautician Serenity Strachan's flippant one-liners and vibrant hair colours are armour to protect her fragile heart. She's always crushed on Jesse, but she's determined to keep him and his sordid past at an arm's length. That's easier said than done when Jesse asks Serenity to help renovate an old property. And when they're trapped underground in a tunnel cave-in, their emotional barriers fall faster than the tunnel walls.

When rescue arrives, they question their new emotional intimacy. Can Serenity trust this new Jesse with her heart? And can Jesse trust that Serenity will ignore the lure of a fortune to keep his secrets safe?
