Small Town Scandal by Lorna Lock
Banished from Chicago by her parents because of her scandalous behavior, Eliza now resides with an elderly aunt in the tiny town of Canaple. Eliza’s chief respite from the boredom of small-town life is the occasional tryst with whichever man catches her fancy.
Aníbal is a sophisticated young architect with a rising international reputation, who has been contracted by the Canaple town leaders to design their new library. Travel-loving Aníbal seizes the excuse to go west but soon finds himself overwhelmed by the scrutiny of curious townsfolk.
When Eliza and Aníbal meet by chance, the attraction is mutual and undeniable. Furtive meetings in Aníbal’s hotel room, in which Eliza awakens to the joy of sensual submission, lead to an unexpected emotional bond. But can this rare and fragile feeling withstand the disapproval of the town, and a jealous aspiring architect’s thirst for vengeance?
