Publisher Description
After leaving her fiancé at the altar, all Gabrielle wants is a day alone to reflect on the mistakes she’s made. But when her car breaks down in the small town of Baldwin’s Shore, a day turns into a week, and perhaps—if the goddesses of fate smile kindly—a little longer. But someone from her past has a different plan.
Sheriff’s deputy Colt Haines isn’t looking for love, and he definitely isn’t looking for a flighty blonde to move into his spare room and complicate his life. But his young daughter has other ideas. So too does his heart, and when Gabrielle’s secrets catch up with her, he’s left with no choice but to fight for her future and for his.

A Captivating Story
Secrets, Lies, and Family Ties! is the second book in The Baldwin Shores series. Elise Noble once again uses her unique writing style to create an captivating and intriguing story.
A runaway bride is stranded with a flat tire and rescued by a single dad. Who is she? And why did she runaway? What is she hiding?
This is a fantastic story.
"I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book"
A funny, lively, and very entertaining book!
In this new episode of the Baldwin Shore series, Elise Noble tries her hand to combine a couple of very classical subjects and makes an art of it. Nothing is trite or predictable in her redemption of the themes of the runaway bride and the undercover princess. Instead, the result is a cast of funny, lively, and entertaining characters that give life to an action-packed, funny, and even emotional story. Moreover, the book is fast-paced, with plenty of twists and situations that keep the reader's attention high at every moment. I particularly appreciated the many cameo scenes that punctuate the narration; some of them are funny, some emotional, others are, in my view, epic, like the one of a racing catamaran sailing in the rough sea at 35 knots/hour! Overall, Secrets, Lies, and Family Ties is a charming book. Primarily, I had a lot of fun reading it, and I hope it will be the same for many others.
Gabrielle and Colts story: a must read!!
If I have a complaint, it’s that the book ended! It was hard to put this book down until I was done (admittedly I have this issue with all of Elise Noble’s books). Another well written, engaging, entertaining book by Elise! I can not wait for the next book in this series. The characters are fantastic and well developed, and I can’t wait to find out who the Bad Samaritan is!!
