More Than Angels — Lee Ann Ward

Penelope Ashton is a passionate young writer with too much experience with the wrong men; and, Jack Kirkpatrick-lover of the ocean and seeker of the father who abandoned him as a child-is a shrimperman still searching for happiness. When the two fall in love, it is a relationship marked with change and loss. Meeting his estranged father and getting in trouble for a crime he didn't commit, Jack must choose between happiness and heartache. Striving to give Penny her dreams of becoming a published author, will he lose her forever to the murderer who is stalking him? Traveling back roads, beaches, and the Gulf waters, More Than Angels is a romance that launches the reader into the terror of a deadly drug ring and a blistering summer of love in a southern town. When love is at stake, sometimes it takes more than angels to save it.
