(2022)(The eighth book in the Kissed By Fate series)
A novel by Tamara Ferguson
He’s always avoided serious relationships, but she’s secretly loved him for years. When CIA operative and journalist Dan Callahan returns home, he finally realizes that fate might have other plans in store for him.
Maria Santos moved with her mother to Wisconsin while her father was a patient at the Crystal Rock Wounded Warrior Home when she was only seven years old.
When her father passes away and she has a difficult time fitting in, Maria and her mom find they have unexpected allies in Jake Loughlin and his wife, Danielle, the owners of the Dragonfly Pointe Inn, as well as their friends, the Callahan family.
From the moment seventeen-year-old Dan Callahan runs across Maria, who’s alone and in tears at a party taking place at the Dragonfly Pointe Beach, Maria is smitten-especially after he promises her that his little sister Kelly would love to have Maria as a friend.
Twenty years later, when Dan and Maria accidentally meet again at Dragonfly Pointe, sparks fly. Dan realizes that he no longer thinks of her as he would a younger sister. Maria has her MBA and has recently returned to Crystal Rock to accept an upper management job at the Dragonfly Pointe Inn.
An award-winning journalist and CIA operative, Dan hasn’t had time for relationships, but seeing Maria again reminds him that life is short, and he wants more out of life than his job, as rewarding as it’s been.
Priorities change, and even with a critical mission ahead, he realizes that he wants Maria and everything that life has to offer.
But when Dan is sent to Afghanistan on a secret investigative mission, his assignment goes terribly wrong.
Will their newfound love be strong enough to survive the devastating obstacles ahead?
