Pine Crest Mountain: Book 1
Publication Date: May 2, 2024
She’s an heiress bound by obligation, determined to protect her mother’s legacy. He’s a bartender from the wrong side of the tracks who’s always loved her.
Twelve years ago, I chose my family and the future they laid out for me.
And walked away from Jaime, my best friend and forbidden fantasy.
We said goodbye with a soul searing kiss I can still feel on my lips.
Now I’m back in Silverpine for the first time since my mother died.
I’m brokering a merger for the family business—only I don’t realize my freedom is on the line.
My father wants to expand at any cost, including offering his only daughter as part of the deal.
But Jaime is back too, and his effortless charm and smile disarm my every defense.
He stands for everything my world isn’t—warm, passionate, and unpredictably beautiful.
I’m trapped between the life I’ve always known and the taste of freedom I’ve longed for.
But with my father plotting my future, and my mother’s legacy weighing heavy, can I dare to rewrite my story for love?
Twelve years have passed since Emma has laid eyes on Jaime Acosta, but business forces her to return to her hometown.
It’s a classic case of opposites attracts in the first installment of the Pine Crest Mountains series. Author Ana Rhodes uses a beautiful Colorado resort as a backdrop for Never Finished.
For Jaime, Emma has always been the one who got away. However, with a business merger in the works and her father offering her as part of the deal, Emma is stuck between family loyalty and a chance at happiness.
Although the storyline is fairly predictable, the chemistry between the characters is compelling. Emma’s desire to honor her late mother’s legacy is noble, especially when she has to square off against her father.
Never Finished acknowledges that love can withstand the test of time and offer second chances.
Hello! I’m Ana and I love writing swoony, small town romances with sweet, protective heroes who love their strong and sassy leading ladies. When I’m not writing, I’m reading… romances, of course! I’m a sucker for a good love story, and I hope you enjoy mine.
