Lost Pines

From award-winning author Blake O’Connor comes a riveting, poignant story of two people’s journeys to love and forgiveness, and the heartbreaking event that brings them together.

Brendon McMahon is facing a gut-wrenching decision, because if he does the right thing he’ll lose the love of his life.

After finally pulling himself out of a downward spiral of paralyzing guilt over a devastating event which left a man dead, Brendon begins his search for Allison Hartley, the women he left widowed. He had planned to be honest with her, to tell her what he had done, to ask for her forgiveness, but he can’t because he fell in love with her from the moment he saw her.

Allison Hartley has finally made peace with the past, living through her own tragic events. She has built a new life with her son, and she now owns a successful local business. Staying busy fills her time, but not her heart. When she meets Brendon, her fluttering heart tells her he could be the one.

As their love intensifies so does the secret that Brendon holds, causing old demons to surface–ones that Brendon thought he had extinguished. Will the secret tear them apart or will they be able to weather the firestorm coming their way?

A story richly textured with emotion and unexpected twists, Lost Pines is a reminder of how fragile and precious life is, how life is a journey filled with love and despair, and how true love can inspire the hero within all of us.
