Shattered Promises, Bk 2 in the Rock Ledge series

                      She stole his heart, then rejected him. Forgive or forget?

While investigating a plane crash in rural Arkansas, FBI Agent Wade Malone is stunned to learn the only woman he’s ever loved is living close by. As a hardened criminal closes in, putting Miranda in the crosshairs, Wade is conflicted about how to protect her while keeping his well-guarded emotions from resurfacing.

Miranda Johnson loves the life she’s carved out as an artist, but she never expected to see her former lover, Wade Malone, again. Can they reconnect and move past the hurts each inflicted on the other, or will the secret she has kept from him all these years cost them everything?

Wild Women Authors focus on Shattered Promises, a contemporary romantic suspense novel, written by award winning author Linda Trout and released by the Wild Rose Press.

Excerpt:

Randi fought for breath as all coherent thought evaporated into thin air. Black dots danced before her eyes and, for a moment, she thought she might pass out. Her eyes hadn’t deceived her earlier. Wade Malone was actually here.

But this wasn’t the skinny young man who had gone on that mission trip. Now, his body was fuller, broader. He was the same height, all six-foot-two of him, and his hair was the same sable color she remembered. Memories of his touch, his kisses, the love radiating from his deep blue eyes, assaulted her.

The Wade Malone she’d known had been kind, caring, loved life and always had a smile on his face. He loved people and would do anything to help them. That wasn’t the man who stood in her yard. This man looked at her with a surprised recognition, then just as quickly, disgust, if not outright hate.

A whimper welled up in her throat.

How could he be the same man who’d left her? The man she’d known had professed his undying love, yet had never returned. Had he found another woman and made his home in Columbia? Did he have children? Other children, her heart whispered.

The urge to run to him was tempered by his hard expression, the thin set of his lips. He had no idea of what she’d been forced to live through. Did he even care?
