As far as he knew, he didn’t have a family. He grew up in the Gilman Home for Abandoned Children and took that name for his own. He worked hard making a name for himself in business and finance, creating a company that was his mark on the world, but there was something missing.Afton Brae sometimes felt like she lived in the past. She learned her work as a graveyard historian from her grandmother who impressed upon her the importance of preserving the past and honoring our ancestors. After a presentation in New York she’s approached about a job, finding the family of a man named Ridley Gilman. When he shows up in Mystic to meet with her, Afton is surprised to find that she’s finally met a man more interesting than his past.Together they burn like a bonfire on the beach and as hard as it is to believe for both of them, being in each other’s arms feels like home. They’ve always known that Afton’s time in Mystic was finite. She was there for a job and as much as they both wanted to delay the inevitable, she was going to have to go where the work is.Ridley doesn’t know if he’s going to be able to watch her walk away from him. Now that he’s found where he belongs, how can he be equally sure that the two of them belong together as well? Is that even possible for the two of them? Or is this love they feel just something passing, a spell of some kind from a place as magical as its name?In the quaint seaside town of Mystic, Connecticut, love is in the air—and who knows where you might encounter a look, a smile, a kiss… that moment when you know your whole life is about to change. It could happen at the Seaport Museum, the Mystic Aquarium, at famous Mystic Pizza, or on a romantic sailboat cruise. Maybe even a Sunday outing at the Elm Grove Cemetery like they did in the late 1900's, strolling in the salt-kissed breeze.Eight hunky guys, each on his own path through life, navigate their way through the rich history of Mystic, discovering steamy romance along the way.River’s Mystic Crush- Natalie AnnLuke’s Mystic Romance - Suzanne JenkinsMalachi’s Mystic Assignment- Jen TaltyMatt’s Mystic Connection - Katie O'SullivanLiam’s Mystic Passion- Alicia StreetCael’s Mystic Reunion- Stephanie MorrisRidley's Mystic Roots- Reina TorresMax's Mystic Magic- Tamara Ferguson less
