My Favorite Series by Susan Mallery is Fool's Gold. Susan Mallery is a New York Times Best Selling Author. She lives in Seattle with her husband & her toy poodle. If you want to read a series, then this is the series to read. It is that good. You will fall in love with the characters & the town. Susan has it set in a town called Fool's Gold, CA. I love Fool's Gold. Not sure if I would like living in a small town with everyone knowing everything about myself & my family, but I would love getting some help with everything. You just left the hospital or had a baby, then the town would be there helping you. I love that! You just broke up with your boyfriend then the girls are there cheering you up. How nice is that? You are sick with a cold. The town helps you out.

Falling for Justice Garrett was a high point in Patience McGraw's otherwise awkward adolescence. Even after he disappeared, Patience never forgot the boy who captured her heart. Now, he's back in Fool's Gold, California, and her passion for him is as strong as ever. But how can she trust that he won't abandon her again-and her daughter, too?
When bodyguard Justice Garrett was a young man, witness protection brought him to this idyllic town and he never forgot its warmth, or the sweet beauty of his childhood friend. He's returned to open a defense academy, and the Patience he once knew is all grown up. He can't resist her smile, or her curves. But Justice's past doesn't make him husband, or father, material.
Patience and Justice think they'll succumb to just one kiss... Then one more... Okay, just one night together. But they might learn that falling in love is beyond anyone's control."
