Publisher's Synopsis
Grace Mathews had haunted my dreams for what felt like forever. She wasn't the one who got away, she was the one who had never been.
She'd never been mine, never been anything more than just a sweet, shy co-worker. Even though I'd wanted her to be so much more.
She disappeared from my life the same way she'd entered it - quietly, quickly, and unexpectedly.
But fate has a way of circling back. One ordinary day, in a place I'd never expected, there she was.
When I discovered the truth behind her sudden disappearance, I promised to help her. I convinced her to return home with me, vowing it was the safest place for her to be.
Marriage was a logical solution, a way to shield Grace from danger and keep her close. So, I vowed to have and to hold her, to watch over her and protect her from harm.
I was looking for our happily ever after, but someone had other plans. The man who had chased her across the state and back wasn't done with her. Not by a long shot.
But I'd made a promise, a vow, to Grace. I was determined to keep my word, no matter what it cost.
Holding Grace is book one in Kristyn DeMaster's new Baron Properties contemporary romance series. Meet the Barons - Michael, Mercy, Ace, Ry, and Levi - family by blood and by choice, building their dreams one at a time while discovering there's no blueprint for love.
