Falling for the wrong guy can be hazardous to your heart. Vivian Wood is desperate. After her beloved brother dies of a sudden aneurysm and her mother develops Alzheimer’s, she needs a good job and a place to stay. She finds it at The Seacroft, a Cape Cod seaside mansion ruled by a mysterious and demanding woman looking for a personal assistant. Vivian soon discovers that being broke and having to deal with her cranky new boss are not her only problems. The gardener at The Seacroft, Cody McGraw, is young, gorgeous, and the bane of her existence—until she starts falling for him. But Vivian isn’t the only one captivated by Cody’s charms. Their sultry employer quickly takes an interest in him—and the developing relationship between Cody and Vivian is threatened by the loss of their jobs and more, should they upset The Seacroft’s exotic mistress. Set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Cape, The Seacroft is a steamy story of difficult choices, heart-wrenching sacrifice, and the ultimate salvation of love. *** Paines Creek Beach series Book 1: The Seacrest Book 2: The Seacroft *** warning: includes sensual love scenes, for adults only. *** Books by Aaron Paul Lazar LEGARDE MYSTERIES: DOUBLE FORTÉ (print, eBook, audio book) UPSTAGED (print, eBook, audio book) TREMOLO: CRY OF THE LOON (print, eBook, audio book) MAZURKA (print, eBook, audio book) FIRESONG (print, eBook, audio book) DON’T LET THE WIND CATCH YOU (print, eBook, audio book) THE LIARS’ GALLERY (print, eBook, audio book) SPIRIT ME AWAY (print, eBook, audio book) UNDER THE ICE (print, eBook) LADY BLUES (print, eBook, and audio book) LEGARDE MYSTERIES OMNIBUS (eBook: Double Forte’, Upstaged, Mazurka, and FireSong) MOORE MYSTERIES: HEALEY'S CAVE (print, eBook, audio book) TERROR COMES KNOCKING (print, eBook, audio book) FOR KEEPS (print, eBook, audio book) TALL PINES MYSTERIES: FOR THE BIRDS (print, eBook, audio book) ESSENTIALLY YOURS (print, eBook, audio book) SANCTUARY (print, eBook, audio book) BETRAYAL (print, eBook, audio book) LOVE STORIES: THE SEACREST (print, eBook, and audio book) THE SEACROFT (coming soon) ROMANTIC THRILLERS: DEVIL’S LAKE (print, eBook, and audio book) DEVIL’S CREEK WRITING ADVICE: WRITE LIKE THE WIND, volumes 1, 2, 3 (audio books) Awards Devil’s Lake 2015 Semi-finalist in Kindle Book Review Awards The Seacrest 2015 Semi-finalist in Kindle Book Review Awards 2014 Best Beach Book Festival WINNER, Romance category 2013 ForeWord Book Awards, Romance, FINALIST Double Forté • 2012 ForeWord BOTYA, Mystery, FINALIST Tremolo: cry of the loon – • 2013 Eric Hoffer Book Awards: Grand Prize Short List • 2013 Eric Hoffer Book Awards: Honorable Mention, Eric Hoffer Legacy Fiction • 2011 Global eBook Award Finalist in Historical Fiction Contemporary • 2011 Preditors & Editors Readers Choice Award – 2nd place Mystery • 2008 Yolanda Renée's Top Ten Books • 2008 MYSHELF Top Ten Reads For the Birds less

Scout Vanderhorn has lost her mother, her home, and all hope of security. In a desperate bid to escape her abusive stepfather, she travels to a seaside mansion on Cape Cod in search of the real father she never knew—and finds a secret sister who welcomes her into the family, troubles and all. But it’s not long before trouble comes looking for Scout. Unaware of his past, or even his own name, Jack Remington is lost. He spends his days scavenging for survival and compulsively searching the seas in his battered old kayak. At night, alone in his beach cave, he’s haunted by nightmares. But from the moment he glimpses Scout, a powerful connection is forged that begins to bring him back from the brink. Neither expects to fall for the other, but Scout and Jack can’t deny their explosive mutual attraction. Can this love remake a broken man and save a woman with nothing to lose…before the past drowns them in the oncoming storm? Set on beautiful Cape Cod, The Seadog is a story of trauma and redemption, of mysteries and revelations -- and above all, the incredible power of love. *** The Seadog: Book 3 in the Paines Creek Beach romantic suspense series.
