A sweet old-fashioned girl–
–isn’t what Grant Carrington is looking for. A man who lives for speed and danger, he’s only slowed down because he’s been forced to by an injury. Carrie Harlow isn’t his type, but he needs her in order to heal. She knows she’s playing with fire, but she feels she can help him and she goes for it—even though she knows she’s endangering her own heart as she fixes his.
Recipe for Carrie's Chicken Picatta included.
Excerpt
But the man was still looking at her, the hint of a smile in his eyes. Reaching out lazily, he pretended to brush a curl from her cheek and tuck it behind her ear. He gave her another wink and turned to go, making his way back across the lawn.
Carrie watched him go, breathing hard in a way that was pure embarrassment and shooting daggers at his back while a thousand things she should have said to him raced through her mind. Still, maybe it was better that she’d been speechless while he was here. Something told her he was someone she didn’t want to mess with.
“Do you know him?” Bob asked eagerly, not at all offended.
Carrie shook her head. “I’m not sure. Who is he?”
“Grant Carrington. The race-car driver.”
“Oh.”
No wonder she’d thought she might have known him in earlier years. The Carrington family were local hot shots too, only in a different way from the Maxwells. When she’d been an adolescent, the three Carrington brothers were considered demigods among the teenaged set. But she’d never really known them. They were older than she was, and anyway, they went to prep school and spent summers on the country club tennis courts and in the swimming pool. Not exactly her scene.
But that was then, she reminded herself—and this was now. After six years of living in Chicago, first studying, then practicing as a physical therapist, she’d come home to Destiny Bay, a new person. At least, that was what she kept telling herself. There had been a lot of changes while she’d been gone. New people, new buildings, even new roads.
And a new her. No more shy little Miss Nobody, scared of her own shadow. She’d grown. She’d learned. And the first thing that had happened to confirm that was having Jerry Maxwell take one look at her and snap her up for himself. That would never have happened in the old days.

A Little About the Destiny Bay Romances: Sweet Editions
From Author Helen Conrad
"The Destiny Bay Romances take place in the sort of beach town I've always loved--and now I live in one! But writing about beach towns came first and this series is centered on the rich, influential Carrington family living along the California Coast, and in Hawaii. These are good-looking, fast-driving, hard-hitting men and women whose impulses lead them into trouble every time--and inevitably to fall in love.
The original series includes language and love scenes that aren't, for the most part, especially harsh and explicit--but some of my readers from my years writing sweets for Harlequin as Raye Morgan have asked if we couldn't have sweet and clean versions--and I thought--what a good idea!
These are basically the same stories...but with the conflicts softened a bit, the language cleaned up, and no explicit love scenes. There are still a few adult situations, but they're muted. Consider these the PG versions.
I hope you enjoy them!"
