Ethan Matthews always felt he was second best. His brother received all the praise, never him. Ethan took a dark, lonely road, turning to alcohol and women to avoid the jealousy that ate away at him. But the demons of his past continued to resurface. He decided to turn his life around with the help of the person he treated the worst–his brother.
Piper Lazara struggled for most of her life. She’d lost almost everyone she loved and lived in poverty. Despite the obstacles, she worked hard and finished nursing school. She never believed in love at first sight, so she tried dismissing her feelings when Ethan entered her life, leaving her heart and head at war over whether she’d take a chance on love.
Ethan knew he shouldn’t get involved with anyone at this turning point of his life, but from the moment he laid eyes on her, he couldn’t stop thinking about the raven-haired beauty. He didn’t know if she felt the same, but it was time he found out.
Their lives were in danger, causing family to step in and offer support. Ethan would do whatever it took to protect the woman who had become his everything. He never thought he deserved happiness, but Piper gave him the redemption he so desperately desired.
My Redemption is book two in my Salvation series. This is a romantic suspense that follows my hero on his path to recovery from his alcohol addiction. He falls in love with the nurse who cared for his sister-in-law when she was hurt. My heroine hasn't let anyone close to her in a long time. Both have baggage and obstacles they must conquer to find their happily ever after together.

Stepping out of the bathroom, he noticed Piper was on the balcony, gazing out at the ocean. With her back to him, he took a moment to drink her in. Fuck, she was gorgeous. The debate going on inside of his head was strong. His heart wanted to walk out there and engulf her in his arms, but his head was telling him to sit and talk with her, to take it slow. It also told him she needed to know about him before moving forward. The sharp jab to his heart made him wonder if she’d even stay once she heard about his sordid past. His mind won in the fact that he only stepped behind her and kept his hands to himself.
Being this close to her, he could smell the light floral scent of her perfume. His fingers itched to move her hair aside and kiss the delicate skin of her neck. Her voice cut into his thoughts.
“I love this view,” she said. “I could stay out here and watch the waves all night.”
“It is stunning.” He wasn’t talking about the ocean, though.
As if Piper knew he was referring to her, she turned to look up into his eyes and smiled. She was beautiful. No matter how many times he saw her, she always made his breath falter. Using the pad of his thumb, he slowly rubbed his finger across her lower lip, wondering if she knew how desirable he found her. How much he craved her in every way possible. His need for her was primal.
