Healing Hearts

Some hearts are made to be mended.



Zac Alvarez never expected to start his life over at forty-five, but his recent divorce means doing just that. Luckily, his career as a nurse in Boston keeps him busy and he has friends who understand Zac's need to be as careful with his heart as he is with his diet.



Acting on a whim one fall afternoon, Zac buys lunch from a food truck and meets Aiden Marinelli, a bold young chef who is taking the city's food scene in new directions. Aiden is only thirty, a fact that doesn't sit well with Zac, but both the chef and his food prove impossible to resist.



An attachment forms between the two men and, as the winter holidays draw near, Zac begins to emerge from the protective shell he's built around himself. A chance encounter with his ex-husband shakes Zac's newfound confidence, however, and he pushes Aiden away, unaware how deeply the act will hurt them both until it is too late.



Now, Zac must decide if he is brave enough to go after what he wants and mend not only Aiden's heart but his own.



Healing Hearts is a 37K age gap friends-to-lovers novella. In it you'll find a Nurse Specialist who can't remember the last time he wasn't on a diet, a brash young chef whose charm is even more tempting than the dishes he cooks, and all the food trucks and holiday sparkle you need. HEA assured.
