Love Claimed

Sometimes you have to deal with your past before you can look toward the future. Donda Whitaker has seen more than her fair share of tragedy. Because of the abuse she suffered as a child, her eating disorder, and addictions, Donda feels like she's the last person who should get a second chance. Jaxson Shepherd has spent years trying to move past his inner demons. His ex-wife was a junkie who let their young daughter die rather than miss a score. Though he has committed his career to saving lives, he can't shake the feeling he should have done more back then. When the single mother and doctor finally meet, it seems like fate. A car accident turns a shared glance into a chance at happiness neither one expected nor believes they deserve. When things get complicated, Donda's son, Gabriel, becomes a teenage matchmaker extraordinaire because he is convinced the two are perfect for each other. Unfortunately, Donda and Jaxson are not so sure. The differences between them loom large. Can the pair get past their troubled histories, self-doubt, and bad experiences to find love at last? If you love stories of survival paired with a strong family, you'll love this clean and wholesome romance. Love Claimed is the sixth book in the Hidden Beauty Series. It can be read as a standalone novel.
