I heard some troubling news—chaotic heart-stopping news. Forest Harper is coming back! ~ from Paige’s journal In this fifth installment of the Restored series, the thing Paige fears most has happened. Her ex-husband is in town. Not only is their brief, secret marriage about to be exposed but so is the secret she’s kept from him—fatherhood. She always planned to tell him about Piper, their darling two-year-old. Now, with him arriving in Basalt Bay to investigate Mayor Grant’s crimes, he might find out at some embarrassing moment. Unless she and Piper hide out in their house while he’s in town. But even well-laid plans can go awry. When Paige comes under suspicion as a possible accomplice in the case and receives some disturbing threats, she may need the one man she never wants to see again. Or rather, the one man she hasn’t been able to forget. When Forest is offered a temporary detective position in Basalt Bay, he jumps at the opportunity to be near Paige again. He’s never gotten over her. He’ll do anything to win back her love. In fact, figuring out how to reach Paige’s heart might be his greatest investigative challenge yet.

About the Restored series - while each installment is a full-length novel, I've written this series like a TV mini-series in that the reader gets to know the characters more fully with each book. And, hopefully, they'll become like friends as we get acquainted with Paisley and Judah, their families, and the unique town of Basalt Bay. ~Mary Mary Hanks lives in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, with her husband, Jason, and their toy-chasing dog who she's certain listens in on conversations. Besides writing, Mary enjoys doing artsy stuff like mosaics, meeting her four adult kids for coffee, and going on adventures with Jason.
