Surrender to Love

the long version

Julia Kelley's abusive husband has been murdered...and she's afraid she might be next. Penniless, she hits the road with her six-year-old daughter only to have her car give out in the middle of a small town. Julia's sure her luck has turned from bad to worse...until handsome mechanic Carson Webber comes to her rescue.Carson suspects that a broken-down car is the least of Julia's problems, and he knows he could help her with whatever is troubling her—if she wasn't in such a hurry to leave. He's also convinced that with a little bit of stalling as he repairs her car—and a whole lot of tenderness—he just might find a way to win her trust...and her love.
