Kaine Reynolds wants nothing more than solitude. After an unthinkable tragedy destroys his family, he’s cut off all ties to his former life so he can battle his grief the only way he knows how.

Alone.

So when Piper Campbell knocks on his door, rambling on about being his new neighbor, he slams the door in her face.

But Kaine’s gruff demeanor doesn’t scare her. She’s set on living in Montana and starting over after a terrible divorce. And she wouldn’t mind having a fling to chase away the pain of her husband’s betrayal. Her handsome, albeit rude, neighbor is the perfect candidate.

Yet what neither of them suspect is that their no-strings affair will result in the surprise of Piper’s lifetime—and Kaine’s worst fear.

TRAGIC:

Is the third full length romance novel in Denver Perry’s ‘Lark Cove’ series. Each book within the series can be read as a standalone, though they do have carry on characters which appear in each book. Spoken in ‘Dual Perspectives.

Woodworking Kaine is just wanting the simplicity and the solitary lifestyle his wee cabin in the woods outside of the township 'Lark Cove' offers him. The last thing he wants is a neighbour that in a matter of days destroys the peaceful daylight hours he craves to work on his creations in his workshop.

Thirty-two year old Divorcee Piper has given up her apartment in Manhattan and is the new comer to town and has found the perfect place to set down roots, a wee bit of demolition and her home will be perfect. What she didn’t encounter on was her handsome grumpy neighbour.

Some peace. The quiet forest. A project to throw myself into headfirst. And maybe a hot, sweaty fling with my grouchy, soon-to-be-next-door neighbour. He had no strings attached sex written all over his handsome face.

A sadness shrouded thirty-three year old Kaine like a cloak, a recluse who rarely left the mountainside. He didn't need the complication of Piper. He was happy wallowing in his own space without his nosy neighbour encroaching on his solitaire lifestyle.

These two were a match just waiting to be ignited, he was always abrupt and rude but when ever she was in his proximity something sizzled between them and a calmness overcame him. Both were closed off to companionship of the opposite sex, both needed to heal, to learn to love again, to trust again, to deal with their heartbreak and pain, together they helped each other in their own backwards ways.

A slow burn, unique, beautiful, heartfelt, story that gripped me from the get go. There's no better match than these two characters, she brought lightness to his darkness and magic when he needed it the most, they were just perfect together, a part they were a mess.
