A Contemporary Christian Romance Novel
(The Perspectives Series Book 2)
by Staci Stallings
Bailey Caradon knows how to keep a secret. She’s been keeping them her whole life. What she’s never learned is how to be honest about the life she’s actually been living. With three brothers and as the only girl in the family, Bailey’s life has been all about keeping the peace. After thinking she had found the love of her life and getting her heart smashed to pieces, Bailey isn’t sure about anything anymore other than the fact that nothing is stable, and no one can be trusted. Then she meets Zeke Lawson, but how do you know if someone can be trusted or if it’s all just smoke and mirrors once again?
Zeke Lawson has lived his whole life in a little dot of a town no one’s ever heard of. He’s not flashy. He doesn’t have huge ambitions. He’s just a good ol’, down-home guy trying to get his life on solid footing. When Bailey Caradon shows up and falls for Zeke’s best friend, Zeke is happy for them. At least he’s trying his best to be. So why is it that his role in the situation seems to be to keep Bailey in one piece? Why does she constantly lean on him for advice? And why can’t he support her and let her go at the same time?
