About Cade’s Loss:
Cade Jenkins is a study in loss. At twenty-five he lost his parents, his dreams, and his career on the pro surfing circuit. He gained guardianship of his two younger brothers, responsibility for an entire ranch, and a life without love.
Nina Cline is on the mend. Her cheating fiance is in the rear view, and she's concentrating on her job as an organic certification consultant. Now that she's gained her independence, Nina will never make the mistake of giving it away again. Especially to some anonymous hookup she meets at a beachside bar...no matter how good he looks in the water. Then she meets her newest Big Sur client and realizes that the beach bum that curled her toes is her new boss—and he thinks “organic” is a dirty word.
As tensions, tempers, and chemistry reach a boiling point at the ranch, these two heartbroken souls will need to decide if they’re willing to take a chance again, or let the love of a lifetime slip away with the tide.

EXCERPT:
There was nothing that soothed Cade’s battered soul more
than the ocean. He’d been that way as long as he could remember, spending every
available moment at the beach, in the water, following his dad from wave to wave
until he’d been better on a board than the old man. As he looked at the water
now, he could almost see the outline of his dad’s form, riding the long tail of
a wave midway out, sun on his hair that was the exact color of Cade’s, water
spraying on his tan skin, weathered from the years of being outdoors. The
familiar ache that was his companion so much of the last six years caught him
like a hoof to the gut, and he swallowed, tasting the lime and tequila in the
back of his throat as he blinked the painful image away.
And that was when he saw her. She was leaning on the glass
wall that ran along the edge of the deck, her blonde curls blowing in the light
breeze that came off the water. She had on a sundress, white cotton, like a
little girl’s, but it was backless, tiny straps running over her slim
shoulders, and with the sun shining through it, the long skirt was nearly
transparent. He could see enough to know that she was wearing thong underwear
or none at all, and that her legs were long and lean, curved in all the right
places.
Before he could think about it, he’d snatched the other two
shots off the bar and was walking toward her, drawn like a moth to a flame,
ready to incinerate himself for only a moment of warmth. As he drew closer, he
saw another man approaching from across the deck. He gave the guy a hard look,
and the dude stepped off, hands up to communicate “no harm no foul.” Cade slid
into position to her right and set the shots down on the railing.
“Tequila?” he asked, turning to look at her profile. She had
high cheekbones, and her skin was dark for a blonde, a beautiful golden shade
that made her look like she’d walked off the pages of a swimsuit magazine. Her
nose was straight and small, turning up ever so slightly on the end, but her
lips were full, covered in some sort of peach shiny stuff that Cade thought
might taste quite good if he could lick it off her.
She turned to look at him when he spoke to her, and the
breath was knocked clean out of him. Instead of the standard blue eyes that he’d
expect from a blonde, hers were amber, almost glowing under the frame of thick
black lashes. She blinked up at him, and Cade’s sore heart gave a jolt that
nearly had him gasping.
