A Librarian and a Reclusive Author Find Love

I’ve never been to Maine, and as much as I’d love to visit, it’s just not on the ol’ schedule any time soon. But no worries. Standalone romance novella Between Now and Forever by author Lucinda Whitney will whisk me (and you) away to the east coast without even having to pay for an airline ticket. Here’s a blurb:

She’s a librarian on vacation. He’s a reclusive author who’s scared to trust. Can their friendship survive her departure?

When Sarah Linden-Price arrives at a rental cabin in Maine, she has only one goal—to complete the promised photography project for her best friend and head back to Manhattan. Making friends isn’t part of the plan. But when a walk on the beach results in a mishap with a man and his dog, she’s surprised to discover they’re old acquaintances.

For Dean Jensen, the small town of St. Martin’s Cove is the perfect escape—and the perfect opportunity to keep his pen name a secret. He has no intention of moving back to New York City, and even less of falling in love. But then he reconnects with Sarah, and everything starts to change.

As Dean helps Sarah with her photography project, his feelings deepen beyond the youthful crush from their college days. But as her time in Maine winds down, they’re both left wondering what sacrifices their blossoming relationship is worth.
