Sold As Is - Hearts of the Heartland, #2

Hearts of the Heartland, Book 3
He's the town's favorite bartender. She's a runaway with a dangerous secret. In Oak Ridge, the truth always tastes a little bittersweet.
Beau Lane is the steady hand of Oak Ridge. As the co-owner of the local dive, The Copper Still, he's spent years serving up drinks and listening to everyone else's problems while keeping his own heart under lock and key. He's the man everyone leans on, but he's starting to wonder if there's more to life than his sister's success and his father's legacy.
Then Cassidy "Cass" Hart walks into his bar during a midnight thunderstorm, looking for a job and a place to disappear.
Cass is a woman on the run. A former high-end pastry chef from Savannah, she's traded her chef's whites for an apron at a greasy-spoon bar to stay off the grid. She's sunshine on the outside, but she's looking over her shoulder at a past she can't outrun. She only intended to stay long enough to fix her car, but Beau Lane is a distraction she didn't bank on.
When the kitchen starts heating up, it's not just the pastries. Beau is the first man who's ever made Cass feel safe, but his protective nature is exactly what might get him hurt. As the danger from Savannah closes in, Beau and Cass must decide if their connection is just a temporary craving or the recipe for a lifetime.
In the heart of Georgia, they're about to learn that life is a mix of flavors—and the "sweet" is always worth the "bitter" it took to get there.
