Loves Echo

Gracelin Garter's life had never been simple or easy. Most people would mourn the death of their mother. Most people. But Grace wasn't most people and her mother had been far from the type of mom you'd mourn. No Ginger's death was freeing. The abuse and neglect Grace had endured at the hands of her mother was worthy of death. The scars. The lies. The destruction. Even after her death Ginger still manages to inconvenience Grace's life. Her childhood home, the one hope she'd held for herself and her daughter is anything but livable. Thank goodness for the help of Joel Franklin. Joel had always been there for her. She was the one who had ran away. And with his skills with a hammer he has volunteered to turn the dump she'd been left with into a home. He most definitely does have skillful hands and as the summer begins to heat up so does their passion. But there are complications. There are secrets that have been kept for far too long. And Grace is not sure they can ever recover from the thing she's harboring.
