GOOD WITH HIS HANDS, BAD FOR HER HEART…
Ever since her marriage went up in flames, Olivia Wilder hasn't had the desire for love. But one magical dance with Logan Travers might change all that. The blue-eyed hometown hunk is a bit younger and a whole lot sexier than any man she's ever dated before. This is one carpenter Olivia would like to get to know better, and not just because of his building skills…
From his first dance with Olivia, Logan knows there's something special about the beautiful brunette. The more she's determined to keep him at arm's length, the more Logan wants her in his embrace. And the more Olivia says she's just passing through, the more resolved Logan is to make her his, forever.

From the Author Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. Logan Travers tipped the beer bottle to his lips as he scanned the guests at the reception. They'd sent off Josh and Sara half an hour ago in a flurry of well wishes and whistles, but the absence of the bride and groom hadn't seemed to dampen the party atmosphere in the least. He was happy for Josh, and Sara seemed amazing, but that didn't mean he liked wedding receptions. He curled two fingers into his collar and tried to stretch the starched fabric. This was the first time in his life he'd worn a tuxedo, and he hoped it would be the last. He was ready to head back to Josh's ranch and crawl into bed for the night. His brother Jake had left already, using the fact that he was driving Josh's daughter, Claire, home as an excuse. Logan figured it had more to do with Jake's need to get away from the boisterous crowd drinking and dancing in the private reception hall above one of Crimson's popular downtown restaurants. Logan had been close to making his own escape, but his new sister-in-law had cornered him on her way out and made him promise to dance with one of her single friends before he left. He'd worked his butt off all night to avoid getting entangled with any of the women at the wedding, limiting his dancing to his thirteen-year-old niece. But he'd been unable to resist Sara's plea. Now he surveyed the couples on the dance floor and the people scattered at tables around the room. His eye caught on a woman seated by herself to the side of the dance floor. She looked as uncomfortable as he felt. Her dress was pale pink and her hair was pulled back from her face in an almost severe knot at the back of her head. Sara had described her friend Olivia as a very pretty librarian type. Logan didn't know if he agreed with that, but decided she must be the woman. As he approached her, the music changed to a slow ballad. Damn. He'd been hoping to make it through some hokey line dance with her and call it good. He thought about ducking away, but her gaze lifted to his so there was no turning back. "Would you care to dance?" he asked, stretching out his hand, palm up. She eyed his fingers as if they were spikes on a cactus. "Why are you asking?" He hadn't expected her question. Logan couldn't remember the last time--if ever--a woman had offered any resistance to his interest in her. One side of his mouth lifted. "We're at a wedding. There's music." He took a step closer and brought his hand to his hip. "I'm Logan Travers, Josh's brother." Her big gray eyes flicked to his before returning to the dance floor. "I know who you are, and I'm guessing Sara put you up to this." He didn't bother to deny it. "I don't know her well, but she's pretty insistent when she wants something." "They've left," the woman answered tonelessly. "You're off the hook." That was exactly what he'd wanted mere minutes ago, but now he felt like he was getting the brush- off. "You don't think she'll be looking for a report after the honeymoon?" "You seem to know Sara better than you think." Her mouth curved into a genuine smile. Logan lifted his hand to his collar again, unable to explain the heat that shot through his spine. The woman stood and he was surprised at her height, especially since her shoes had very little heel. She was nowhere near as tall as he was, but at six-foot-three he was used to towering over most people. She was just a slip of a thing but only had to tip her head a bit to look him in the eye. Suddenly he wanted nothing more than to take her in his arms and discover if she'd fit there as well as he thought she would. "I'm Olivia," she said and extended her hand. He covered her fingers in his and tugged her toward the dance floor. "You don't have to do this," she protested. "I want to." He pulled her into his arms, maybe a bit closer than was necessary. Automatically, her left hand came to rest on his shoulder as he kept her right one wrapped in his. He couldn't help but notice the enormous diamond on her ring finger. He was almost blinded as it caught the light. Sara had asked him to dance with her single friend, but the ring meant there was more to the story. He tried to ignore his curiosity as his fingers brushed the gauzy fabric of her dress along her back. A few pieces of mahogany-colored hair fell loose against her neck and he reveled in their softness as the strands grazed his cheek. She smelled like flowers, and he resisted the urge to bury his face in the crook of her neck and breathe in the fragrance. He gave himself a few moments to regain his control. Clearly he'd been too long without the company of a woman based on his body's reaction to Olivia. She wasn't his type in any way. She was too refined, too fragile, too reserved. Logan liked his female companions loud and fun. He was in it for a down-and-dirty good time. Everything about Olivia screamed out of your league. He was smart enough to believe it. "Why don't you have a date?" he couldn't help asking. He felt her body stiffen but her voice was calm when she answered. "My husband was a serial cheater who ran off with his secretary a few months ago." His step almost faltered at her blunt honesty. He leaned back to look into her eyes. "Then he didn't deserve you in the first place," he told her quietly. Her breath hitched as her mouth formed a perfect O. There was a bleakness in her gaze, a quiet desperation that Logan hadn't seen in a woman since he'd looked into his twin sister's eyes almost ten years ago. Olivia Wilder was broken, he realized. He didn't know her husband, but had the fierce desire to plow his fist into the other man's jaw. "He wanted to discover his bliss," she said after a minute. "The life we had was stifling for him." "Tell me you're not defending the jerk." She shook her head but her eyes dropped to his bow tie. "It will be better in the long run." "Is that what he told you?" "It's what I tell myself to get through each day," she answered then blinked, her eyes filling with tears. The music ended and she pulled away, but he held on to her hand. "Let's get a beer." She shook her head as if realizing she'd revealed too much but followed as he led her off the dance floor toward the bar. He could feel the weight of the stares from the other guests. He hadn't stepped foot in Crimson in close to a decade and saw no point in making friends during this return trip. He planned to get the hell out of town as soon as Josh and Sara returned from Hawaii. Without letting go of Olivia's hand, he grabbed two beers from the bartender and made a path toward the hallway that led to the stairs by the main restaurant. He wanted to head outside, but he knew it was too cold for her in that thin dress. It was late March and at the nine-thousand-foot altitude where Crimson sat nestled in a valley high in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, the temperature at night was still below freezing. Instead, he took her to the back of the restaurant, which was empty so late on a Saturday night. He pulled out a chair and she sank down, cradling her head in her hands as her shoulders shook. "Go away," she mumbled between her fingers. Logan opened the beer bottles and sat one on the table in front of her. "Drink this."

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Sweet romance, but also steamy and emotional. By S. Frank Olivia is trying to get her life back together. She had been married to the mayor of Crimson until he cleaned out their bank accounts and ran off with his secretary. She's been left dealing with the fallout and it hasn't been pleasant. But she likes the town of Crimson and would really like to stay. Her friends are also trying to convince her that she needs a new man in her life, but that's the last thing she wants right now. That is, until she has a dance with Logan at her friend Sara's wedding. There's an instant attraction between the two of them that she doesn't know what to do about. Logan is six years younger than she is and a whole lot sexier than anyone she's ever been with before.Logan came back to Crimson for his brother's wedding, but he has no intention of staying for long. There are way too many bad memories associated with the town. His father had been wildly abusive to him and his siblings, and after his two older brothers left, it only got worse for him and his twin sister. The coped by acting wild and out of control, and then his sister died in a car accident. Logan blamed himself and became even wilder, until one event made him realize he was headed for worse trouble. He left Crimson and didn't come back until now. He has turned his life around and has a successful job in construction. He gets talked into dancing with Olivia at the wedding and is surprised by the attraction he feels for her, especially since she claims she's not interested.Olivia has taken on the project of trying to get the Crimson community center's renovation completed. It has come to a halt because of the actions of her ex-husband and she doesn't want that to happen. As the current contractor is married to the woman her ex ran off with, he's not interested in helping. When Olivia finds out that Logan is qualified, she begs for his help. Now they are spending a lot of time together and that attraction they feel is getting stronger.I loved seeing Olivia and Logan together. He doesn't care about the age difference. He simply sees an awesome woman that he's attracted to. He also sees the the grief she's been getting because of her ex and does his best to show her that she is not responsible for his actions. He also shows her that she is an attractive, sexy woman that he enjoys being with, even though he feels that he's no good for her. At the same time, Olivia gets to know Logan for who he is now. She didn't know him when he was a troubled teen, so those times make no difference to her. She tries to show him that it's who he is now that's important. After awhile, the age difference starts to be of less importance to her also. But Logan is still determined to leave when his work is done, even though he finally admits that he has fallen in love with Olivia.I really wondered how things were going to work out for them, with the way Logan was determined to leave and Olivia loving her new life in Crimson. Things got really rough for Olivia when her ex came back to town and started making trouble for her at the opening of the community center. I really loved the way Olivia had changed so much from the woman he had known, and what she did to him at the opening. That was then followed by Logan's big moment, making for the perfect ending to the book.*copy received in exchange for honest review.

Add in the setting of Crimson and two characters who are destined for each other despite the odds and I call this a perfect story. Olivia is trying to recover her life and her finances (as well as her broken heart) after her husband did the absolute worst he could do. (I'd say more but I don't like spoilers) She's buried herself and her heart into renovating the Crimson community center and getting a new guy is the last thing on her mind. Logan, or very swoon-worthy hero (who was once the town bad-boy--with a past worth reading about--just wow--love how these two have such depth) he is back in town for a wedding--the same wedding Olivia happens to be attending as well. Sparks do fly, but it takes awhile for these two to trust each other, which is why you keep turning the pages and get so many butterflies. There are a ton of reasons for these two not to make it, but every kiss has you knowing and cheering for that happy ending. A wonderful read, highly recommend this as well as all of Michelle Major's work.

Olivia picks up the pieces and continues work on the Community Center close to her heart. Enter Logan, a magically dance and her offers to help her finish the Center. But he always maintained when the job was done, he had to leave, too many bad memories in Crimison for him to stay. Ultimately, he sees through her brave act as she does his tough facade and both discover just how right they are for each other. If you enjoy second chance stories with happy endings, this book is for you. A swoon-worthy hero with a bad boy rep and a heart of good, plus a heroine who doesn’t know how strong she really is add up to a great read with an interesting twist. Another book well done by Michelle Major.
