About Peckers: Into The Fire
Martha has always been the dependable one—the caretaker, the anchor, the woman everyone counts on.
But with the restaurant thriving and the people she loves building lives of their own, she’s forced to confront something she never made time for: herself.
Then Chef Charles Reese enters the picture. Steady, capable, and carrying wounds of his own, he offers Martha something unfamiliar—being cared for in return.
Now Martha must decide whether it’s too late for reinvention… or exactly the right time.
A heartfelt, sexy contemporary romance about second chances, found family, and learning you still deserve more.
