More Than Words by Daphne Abbott

A small town outcast…

My status as the daughter of Eagle Creek’s most notorious resident hasn’t made my life easy. I do my best to keep my head down, and my younger sisters and eighty-six-year-old best friend are the only things I care about in this place. My life might be small and boring, but until Grayson Archer walked into my store, I was content. Grayson is a stranger in our small town, and way out of my league. Still, something about Gray draws me in and I can’t keep my eyes or mind off him.

Will meet her match…

Though I came to this tiny Wisconsin town to help a friend’s failing business, it’s now been over a year since I arrived. I try to tell myself otherwise, but Ruby McLean with her sharp tongue and dangerous curves is the real reason I can’t force myself to go. When she struggles to cope with her family’s troubles, I step in to help. More than anything, I’m determined to get out of the friend-zone she’s put me in and make her mine. I just need to convince her that everything I say means more than words.
