About the Book
When lawyer Hilliard inherits a fixer-upper in California, he hires cute handyman Brian to do some maintenance. Then he learns Brian's an innocent ex-con with a heart of gold. Can he solve the mystery, prove Brian's innocence, and win that wary heart for himself?Book Synopsis
Hilliard Bauman's life and his law practice are in Ohio, so when he inherits a home in California, his first instinct is to sell. Then again, his law partner is also his ex-partner, so maybe starting over wouldn't be so bad. Either way, he needs someone to fix up the house first. That's where Brian Mayer comes in. Brian Mayer will do whatever work he can get, whether that means dog walking or painting fences. But in a small town where everyone knows everything about everyone, finding jobs can be difficult--especially if you've been wrongly convicted of theft. When Hilliard hires him to fix up his great-aunt's place, it's a relief on Brian's strained bank account... but tests Brian's heart to its limits. As Hilliard digs into Brian's case and the botched investigation of the original crime, things really start heating up--both between him and Brian and in what should've been a cold case. This time when cops try to lay the blame at Brian's feet, he has Hilliard in his corner. Can they solve the mystery, put Brian's past to rest, and find a new beginning together?About the Author
