Local Gold (Five Brothers Book 5)
One bad relationship and Brianna Robinson evades emotional involvement like she avoids poison ivy. The one man in her life now is her best friend, the same man who stepped in when her son's father checked out. He was there for every prenatal and pediatric visit. He coached her through labor pains and held her hand through delivery, even after she nearly broke his finger.
He's the lawyer upstairs who can write a will, help her son with homework, and make dinner all at the same time. He's the man who never refused her anything, and Brianna is beginning to feel like it's time to give him the one thing she has always withheld from him–her heart.
Bart Roach has loved Brianna since he met her pregnant. Back then she couldn't accept his love; so he offered the friendship that she needed. Now they share a house and raise her son together. The child calls him dad, for he is the only father the boy knows; and Bart loves him like his own. It feels like family, but it's not quite that. Tired of settling for the counterfeit, Bart wants the real deal–Brianna as his wife. He takes a shot at gaining her love.
Just when she's ready to give it, a problem pops up and puts a wedge between them. Now it looks like Bart missed the shot he took. Is he about to lose his heart right along with the woman and son whom he loves?
