One season. Two darling girls.

And a past he thought he lost forever…

Being in witness protection with twin little girls is the least of Sam Cooper’s problems. Right now, he desperately needs a nanny. But he’s stunned when the candidate who shows up on his doorstep is Ansley Tait, the girl he once loved…and left brokenhearted. Sam knows Ansley is everything the sweet—and adorably energetic—twins need. But protecting his family has to come first. Because one tiny slip about his true identity could mean disaster. Another move. Another town. And most of all, walking away from the only woman he’s ever truly loved…

Biography

Susan L. Tuttle is a Christian romance author who loves writing about ordinary people finding extraordinary love–with plenty of sparks, sweetness, and faith woven in along the way. A Carol Award-nominated storyteller, she’s known for relatable characters, charming banter, and plots that offer both emotional depth and a hopeful lift.

Susan lives in the Mitten State with her hubby and their ever-expanding family. A newly minted empty nester, she adopted a borderdoodle who now serves as her reluctant cuddle-recipient and loyal writing companion. Retired from homeschooling, she now divides her time between serving in ministry as a pastor’s wife, dating her amazing husband, hunting down the perfect cookie, and crafting her next story.

Whether exploring second chances, emotional healing, or the spark of unexpected romance, Susan writes with the belief that love–both divine and human–has the power to transform. You can find her books, updates, and cookie opinions at susanltutle.com.
