Whiskey River Runaway (Whiskey River series Book 2)
When widower Truett Mahan finds a trespasser hiding in one of his building renovation projects, he thinks he has a runaway teen on his hands. He's right about the runaway, but Hope Larson is all woman, and in desperate need of help. True never turns away a person in trouble, but helping Hope wakes up feelings and dreams he thought buried with his wife years ago.
Hope was forced to run to protect the people she loves, paring her life down to what fits in her backpack. True tempts her to stop running and set down some roots in Whiskey River, a town she's come to love.
Can this strong, honorable man help her retake her life, or will the danger she'd left behind strike out at them both?

About the Author
Justine Davis was born during an Iowa blizzard. In response, she’s been a West Coaster since before she was a year old, and intends to stay that way. She has a history of staying, starting her first full time job right out of school—
“Excuse me? There was that brief sojourn at a concrete plant where they made, among other things, burial vaults. The reasons for and mechanics of which I could have gone my entire life without knowing.”
Ew. Yes. May we proceed now? Where were we? Ah, staying. Justine spent 21 years at that first job. Was married to her first and only husband also for 21 years. Lived in their first house for 17 years. Has lived in her current house in the Pacific Northwest for 12. Is it dedication, inertia, laziness, or—
“Laziness?? Do you have any idea how much junk you accumulate in that amount of time? How many dumpsters we filled moving? Think I want to do that again? Not a chance.”
Right. Now then. You’ve had two lengthy careers. Again, dedication, inertia, or laziness?
