Shattered Illusions — Candice Poarch

Hidden Passion
A fiercely independent businesswoman, Delcia Adams has worked long and hard to turn her North Carolina island campground into a successful vacation spot. But when a hurricane causes major damage to it, she has no choice but to hire newcomer Carter Matthews to help her rebuild. The more she lets him help, the more she discovers that the handsome stranger is a man of dangerous secrets--and irresistible fire.

Perfect Love
Carter is sure that someone on the island had murdered his beloved foster brother--and assisting Delcia seems the perfect way to secretly investigate. It isn't long, though, before her warmth and caring are challenging not only his careful reserve, but his deepest desires. Now, with a dangerous enemy closing in, Delcia and Carter must forge a fragile trust if they are to uncover the truth--and claim the love they've always dreamed of.
