About this eBook

** The novella, Off Duty, was originally published as part of the Night Shift: Dirty Things Happen in the Dark anthology, which released on March 17, 2015. If you purchased that boxed set, you already have a copy of this book and do not need to purchase it again. **

As a member of the New York Fire Department, single father Tim Davis is about as tough as they come. But underneath the muscles and tattoos, he still nurses a bruised heart handed to him courtesy of his first love. While on vacation with his son in New Orleans, Tim runs into the very woman that taught him about love before pulling it all away. 


Holly Reynolds is rebuilding her life as an orthopedic doctor, far away from her home in New York City and her controlling father… the man responsible for tearing her and Tim apart. While she knows the hurt she caused Tim could never be forgiven, she can’t help the overwhelming feelings she still has for her first and deepest love. 

Truths are revealed as lies are exposed. 

Two people come back together again to explore the fragile emotional bonds that still keep them tethered, even as their passion ignites hotter than any fire Tim has ever had to put out before.

I love second chance romances. I love Sawyer Bennett. So, a Sawyer Bennett second chance romance is like spun gold to me! Off Duty is a short story, but packs all the punch of a full length novel. Tim and Holly were high school sweethearts until her father tore them apart. While on vacation in New Orleans, Tim runs into Holly and it's obvious that they still have strong feeling for each other. After the initial shock of seeing each other wear off, the old hurts come barreling back. Tim still wants Holly and he doesn't think it's too late. Can they talk about the past and move on? Will Holly forgive herself for hurting Tim and give him her heart again? I just love this story. It's sweet, funny, sexy, and emotional. #Loveislove  There is just something between Holly and me that can't be explained for whatever reason, it connects us on a different level. A higher plant. A cosmic emotional universe where only we exist.

Loved this one!! It's a fantastic second chance story that's full of emotion, family, and lots of sizzling sexy times! A great addition to the Off series that everyone needs to read! I highly recommend it. An emergency room visit for his young son brings Tim Davis face to face with the one woman who has ever really owned his heart. It's immediately clear that the attraction is still there but has the passing of time healed to whole in his heart her betrayal left???

About the author

Since the release of her debut contemporary romance novel, Off Sides, in January 2013, Sawyer Bennett has released multiple books, many of which have appeared on the New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestseller lists.

 

A reformed trial lawyer from North Carolina, Sawyer uses real life experience to create relatable, sexy stories that appeal to a wide array of readers. From new adult to erotic contemporary romance, Sawyer writes something for just about everyone.

 

Sawyer likes her Bloody Marys strong, her martinis dirty, and her heroes a combination of the two. When not bringing fictional romance to life, Sawyer is a chauffeur, stylist, chef, maid, and personal assistant to a very active daughter, as well as full-time servant to her adorably naughty dogs. She believes in the good of others, and that a bad day can be cured with a great work-out, cake, or even better, both.

 

Sawyer also writes general and women’s fiction under the pen name S. Bennett and sweet romance under the name Juliette Poe.
