SILLA WEBB

Backwoods, barefoot, and bad-ass—those are just a few words often used to describe the HBIC that is also the classy and brilliant Silla Webb. Born and raised in the coal fields of Eastern Kentucky, Silla is the epitome of a Southern Belle, sass and strength with a side of sarcasm. All of her amazing attributes bleed through in the fictional heroines she brings to life beyond the pages.

Silla, a sweet tea and cupcake lover, is married to her high school sweetheart and a mother to three fine young men. I’m not saying Silla is Superwoman, but they’ve never been seen in the same room together. Silla is a USA Today Bestselling Author and the owner of Masque of the Red Pen, an independent publishing company that prides itself in bringing authors’ dreams of success to fruition. She’s an Executive Assistant and Editor to many amazing authors, but she often hides away from reality to immerse herself in the fictional worlds that consume her mind.

Silla’s most notably known for her Romantic Suspense world, Buried Secrets and her Contemporary Romance series, Under Construction, co-written with her soul sista and best friend, Kaden Layne.

Everleigh Abbott – born and bred in Oak Island, N.C. – always had a dream of going off to college and making a difference in the world.

Presented with the opportunity to attend the university with the top surgical program in the country, she couldn’t pass it up. Even though it meant leaving her family and Jensen McLean – the man she loved – behind. The couple knew the distance would come between them, yet Jensen had no choice but to stay in Oak Island and take over his family’s business.

Twelve years later, Everleigh’s a well-respected neurosurgeon in Boston and living the life she’s always wanted. However, when her grandmother passes, Everleigh learns she's been left everything, including the beach house. What she soon realizes is that there are secrets hidden within the house, secrets that could change everything. It all leads to a tragic past that brings Everleigh face to face with her only regret.

Jensen McLean has devoted his life to making his family business the best on the North Carolina coast. When he finds out Everleigh is back in town, he refuses to waste the chance to see her again.

Little do either of them know, the mysteries hidden at the beach house will reveal truths that connect them in ways they never thought possible.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author L. P. Dover is a southern belle living in North Carolina with her husband and two beautiful girls. Everything’s sweeter in the South has always been her mantra and she lives by it, whether it’s with her writing or in her everyday life. Maybe that’s why she’s seriously addicted to chocolate.

Dover has written countless novels in several different genres, including a children’s book with her daughter. Her favorite to write is romantic suspense, but she’s also found a passion in romantic comedy. She loves to make people laugh which is why you’ll never see her without a smile on her face.

EXCERPT:

Ian started talking. Of course, he initiated control of the conversation just like he dominated legal negotiations. “We understand that you aren’t inclined to choose either one of us. We aren’t pressing you to do that now.” The tenderness in Ian’s voice and the concern in JD’s eyes alarmed her.

Sasha’s chin began to quiver as a feeling of doom swept through her. Tears welled up in her eyes. “Are you both here for closure’s sake?”

“Fuck no!” JD swore, clasping her hand more securely. “I have no desire to end things with you.”

A tear slid down her cheek. Sasha started biting her lip. Did JD think she was going to choose him over Ian? Her head started to spin. Nausea brewed in her belly.

Ian leaned in closer. “Neither of us wants to end things with you. Well, I suppose our case is a little different.” Ian extended an open hand. Her free hand itched to reach out and accept Ian’s offer. Uncertainty made her hesitate.

“I’m totally confused.” Sasha looked back and forth between the two. Neither of their faces gave her a clue. What were they suggesting?
