Where the Dogwoods Bloom

Everyone thought Jilly Gardner was destined to be the next Steffi Graf, but the ambition and drive that earned her a coveted tennis scholarship slowly faded after she lost the one thing in life she wanted most—a real family. It will take the love of her former foster parents and the devotion of the man who holds her heart before she’s finally whole.

When Cameron Lane’s childhood friend comes back into his life, he doubts she’s changed from the spoiled “tennis brat” he remembers. But as he gets to know the grown-up Jilly, he finds himself falling for her. Haunted by the death of his younger brother, however, Cameron must first conquer his fears of failing another person he loves before he can shed the past and find lasting happiness with the woman he loves.
