Single mom Allie Cavanaugh has given up on love. Her last relationship left her with a beautiful, perfect son…but also with some serious trust issues. She’s happy with her life—an adorable baby, a good job with a boss she adores, in a strange town that’s really growing on her. Romance? Who needs it? She’s doing just fine on her own and she doesn’t see anything changing that…at least until the circus comes to town.
After a tragedy left him questioning everything he knew about his life, therapist Damon Cole ran away and rejoined the circus. His childhood had been one of travel and adventure, and disappearing into the close-knit carny world sounds like the escape he needs. Fortunately, he even has an act. Having used hypnosis when treating his patients, he now travels in a caravan as the Gypsy King—the World’s Greatest Mesmerist.
But when he ends up in the tiny town of Trouble and meets a pretty young mom, he begins to understand what it’s really like to be mesmerized. Because with Allie, he thinks he might be able to allow his heart to open again, letting in the forgiveness—and even the love—he needs.
