Know Me Well by Kait Nolan, The Forge Book Finishers
Welcome back to Wishful, Mississppi, full of eccentric characters and southern charm, where author Kait Nolan delivers another heart-warming story of a strong, successful woman and the equally strong man who learns how to be her partner.


Liam Montgomery is the last person who'd call himself a hero, but he does have a tendency to try to save the world. Now that he's left the Marine Corps and returned to Wishful, he feels out of place and unsure of what comes next. He does know one thing: The girl who used to look up to him like a brother is all grown up. No way he can see her as a little sister now. And she won't give him the time of day.


Riley Gower isn't holding out for a hero. In fact, a knight in shining armor is the last thing she wants. She's been watching her mother chase that fairy tale for most of her life, with Riley the one left to pick up the pieces of unhappily ever after. Running Wishful's downtown pharmacy is a dream Riley's worked toward for years. Now that the business is finally hers, the realities of the current economy have made it seem like the dream is falling apart. So when her mother calls, expecting yet another rescue, Riley feels like she's spread thinner than the last pat of butter at Sunday dinner.


It's hard enough for a woman like Riley to admit she could use a hand, but mixed up with the embarrassment of a childhood crush and the devastating attraction sizzling between them? No way. Liam is determined to help, but taking down insurgents is less complicated than infiltrating Riley's defenses. This will require reinforcements. And a plan.

Excerpt:


"I can't afford a new car, Liam.  Isn't there anything you can do?  Something you can cobble together?  Duct tape?  Prayers?"  It killed her to ask, but desperate times.


"I could probably manage something.  But whatever I do is going to be borrowed time and it's really throwing good money after bad.  You're gonna have to start making some kind of arrangements for a new one in the not distant future."


"Any time you can buy me is appreciated."  And maybe she'd have pulled off some kind of miracle to bring in extra income to pay for it.


Knowing she needed to keep her hands busy, Riley picked up the carton of Band-aids and went to put it away again. Never mind that she hadn't actually put any on the shelf.  She added it back to the pile and turned.  Liam had followed her into the storeroom, and the already over-crowded space suddenly shrank.


Riley took an instinctive step back and stumbled. Her feet snagged, sending her flailing.  Before she could crash into the piled up junk, Liam's hands closed around her hips, yanking her flush against him.  All her soft parts were pressed up close and personal against all his hard parts and, oh dear God, she couldn't breathe.


"Careful.
