SYNOPSIS:
Sharon
Gable, a seasoned interior designer in Columbia, South Carolina, swears off
love after ending a relationship filled with deceit. She focuses on expanding
her business with her best friend and avoiding romance until she's unexpectedly
set up with architect Bradley DuPont at an engagement party. Despite her
resistance, Sharon finds herself drawn to Bradley's undeniable charm and rugged
allure.
Bradley,
back in town to care for his ailing grandfather and manage the family business,
is burdened by his West Coast job and familial obligations. Yet, Sharon
captivates him like no other, offering a respite from his tumultuous family
dynamics.
As
their connection deepens, they must confront external forces bent on sabotaging
their happiness. Will Bradley persuade Sharon that their attraction is worth
exploring, or will malicious schemes tear them apart?
For
fans of contemporary romance dipped in southern charm, Away with Shadows delivers a captivating tale of love and loss, resilience of spirit in the face
of adversity, and familial complexities against the backdrop of Columbia, South
Carolina, and Paris, France.

ENJOY AN EXCERPT:
When Bradley and his brothers returned to Gramps’ house from
the funeral, friends and family warmly greeted them. Kera and Gregg arrived
shortly after, but Sharon was nowhere to be seen.
Was she in another part of the house?
With so many people walking around him and blocking his way,
he grew more impatient by the minute. His search was momentarily interrupted
when he entered the kitchen to find Sara and some of the other women preparing
the food for everyone.
“Hi, baby,” Sara said as she walked around the island to hug
him. “Where are your brothers?”
“They’re in the living room, mixing with the guests.”
Sara stood back to look at him. “I know this is a stupid
question, but I’m going to ask anyway. How are you guys holding up?”
“We’re good, Mrs. Sara. It’s just going to take some time to
adjust to Gramps not being here. I think we’re going to be all right.”
“Just know that if there’s anything you need, you can call
me. You know we got you.”
“I know, Mrs. Sara. We appreciate that.”
“Well, I made food for you all for the week, and I’ve
already put it up for you in the refrigerator, so all you need to do is put it
in the microwave and heat it up.” She beckoned for him to follow her to the
pantry and pointed to the top shelf. “I made your favorite lemon sour cream
pound cake and a Sprite upside-down cake as well.”
Rubbing his hands together in excitement, he thanked her and
gave her a hug. As they closed the door to the pantry, he turned to see a
familiar face at the other end of the vast kitchen. One he had been waiting to
see all day. It was her. She was finally here. His heart leaped, and he
couldn’t help the big smile came across his face.
