Dare to Love Again

By Julie Lessman

She’s a sassy socialite burned by love. He’s a jaded cop burned by the upper class.
When sparks fly . . . will love catch fire again?

Spunky Allison McClare is determined to be a fearless, independent woman. But when she takes a notion to explore the wild Barbary Coast, she quickly discovers she’s no match for the unsavory characters that haunt the dark streets.

Detective Nick Barone would rather do almost anything than teach this petite socialite self-defense, but it seems he has little choice. Sparks fly every time the two meet until a grudging friendship develops into something deeper. But is he just a fraud like all the rest of the men Allison’s cared for? Or is he the one who will let her dare to love again?

Award-winning author Julie Lessman brings the glamour of Gilded Age San Francisco to vibrant life in this journey to find a love that never fails.
ISLAND BREEZES
Boy, she’s a feisty little thing. And isn’t he the grump?
Allison has had her heart broken three times already, and she’s not about to give another man the chance to do it again. Nick’s been burned by the upper class more than a little, and he doesn’t intend to let that happen again.
Unfortunately, these two have to learn to get along and work together. The fireworks between these two last throughout the book. Will they ever learn to play nice?
This book takes us back to San Francisco and the McClare family. I enjoyed your book, Ms Lessman. Now I’m ready for still more in the lives of the McClares.
