He Calls Me Harp Series

Book Cover & Preview Text
“That’s how it worked with Scott,” I whispered as the memory flew through me. My eyes fastened to the sizeable emerald-cut ring on my left hand. I remembered how direct he’d always been with me. The few times Scott wasn’t forthright with me was when he’d lost his confidence and was unsure how to navigate his uncertainty. Every memory from the scrapbooks upstairs ran through me: His asking me out, his marriage proposal, his wanting to move in together, his insisting I apply to the same college. All of it was direct and deliberate. I was reminded of the few times he’d lost his confidence: His confession after he used, when we became survivors, and his running away from me after Mia Jones. Even now, he doesn’t know where he stands with me. He’s evasive about what he wants because he is unsure of what I need. His only demand was in his plea for me to find happiness. I’d spent my life with an unapologetically direct man; I never learned the signs of someone being coy, even when my husband was lost while trying.

About the Book
After their porcelain anniversary was left shattered, Harper and Scott live apart—Harper alone in the Seaport, and Scott in Bellevue with his nephew. But when a family wedding inevitably forces them together again, old memories and desires reignite. As the past and present collide, Harper must confront a monumental secret hidden from Scott while they appreciate the memories of who they were before and who they became after that ill-fated run on the bluff. Meanwhile, Harper becomes entangled with Thermal, a charming finance bro who lives in her building and occupies her summer days but fails to measure up to Scott as he tries to move into her summer nights.
As Harper navigates her complicated feelings for Scott and examines her feelings for him, she must confront her hand in her failed marriage. But will their shared memories bring them closer or tear them apart? And what will happen when Scott learns that Harper has been keeping secrets from him—and that their past is more intertwined than he ever could’ve imagined?
Bronze is a dark, loving, and passionate exploration of remembering who they were, who they became, and appreciating all the small things in between.
