BLURB:

Some lines are meant to be crossed.

Trent Montgomery knew all about loyalty and responsibility. Tracking down his friend’s long-lost sister and making sure she was safe was just another job, a favor from someone he cared about. He wasn’t supposed to get attached. But when he started to fall for the woman who had been hiding from the world, things got a lot more complicated than he ever expected.

Cheyanne Knightly knew all about living in fear. The life she’d made for her and her daughter was as stable as a house of cards. One stiff breeze could send her whole world crumbling. But when a new guy blew into her small town, stirring up Whitecap’s rumor mill, she found herself drawn to him in a way she never expected.

Lies were told. Secrets were uncovered. Lines were crossed. When the truth finally came out, Trent had to find a way to protect the woman who stole his heart while he tried to earn her trust back.

**The Whitecap series is a brand new series of interconnected, standalone, small town romances.**

REVIEW:

Another fantastic spin off to Jessica Prince's wonderful small town worlds she has created, the Whitecap series is the first, but many of the characters are connected to the Hope Valley series.

Crossing the Line follows Sawyer whose real name is Cheyanne, she has been in hiding and on the run for years. Leaving behind an abusive controlling husband to keep her daughter safe. She only dreams that one day she wont have to hide anymore and maybe be reunited with her long lost twin sister. She is safe is the small town Whitecap where everyone knows everyone, so when an attractive man named Trent comes into town and get the whole town abuzz with excitement, Cheyanne, who never wanted to open herself up to someone again cant seem to stay away from Trent. But both have secrets and secrets that may effect them both harshly in the end.

Cheyanne was a heartbreaking characters, she is a fantastic mother, but is always on the edge of wondering if she and her daughter will be found. I felt for her, the constant unknown as well as never knowing what happened to her twin sister after they were separated. What I love most about Prince's series is that they all connect, you don't need to read other series to know what's going on, but if you have read them, its like coming home. Cheyanne is connected to a Hope Valley resident, if you read the series, you would get a little more background on how this all started. Cheyanne has surrounded herself with a bunch of wonderful side characters, which make this series that much more special. Luna was my favorite, she was hilarious and I think needs to find that partner that give her a little surprise.

Trent is like many of Prince's male leads, he's not looking for that special someone but can't help it when it comes to someone like Cheyanne and her adorable daughter Renee, he's a goner. He has a lot of secrets from her and his friends, but he wants to do whatever it takes to protect these two innocent girls from a very dangerous man.

In the end I loved the new small town, the colorful characters and bringing in some of the gang from the other series. There is some suspense and lot's of humor, especially with Luna. Another great addition to the small town romance genre.

“Monica said the dude was ogling you like you were a three-course meal and he hadn’t eaten in a month.”

“Like I said, she exaggerated.”

Right?

Nope, I silently screamed to myself. I wasn’t going to start questioning it because it didn’t matter. Not at all.

She looked at me, her expression pinched with skepticism. “Was she also exaggerating when she said she thought you’d stroked out for a minute and lost the power of speech when he came up and introduced himself to you?”

I snorted and took a gulp of my margarita, smiling as I admitted, “No, she might have been spot-on with that one.”

Luna’s head fell back on a laugh. “At least you’re willing to own it.”

“It’s not my fault! There isn’t a woman on the planet who could help it,” I exclaimed. “I mean, the dude had dimples, for Christ’s sake. Dimples.”

Born and raised around Houston Texas, Jessica spent most of her life complaining about the heat, humidity, and all around pain in the ass weather. It was only as an adult that she quickly realized the cost of living in Houston made up for not being able to breathe when she stepped outside. That’s why God created central air, after all.

Jessica is the mother of a perfect little boy–she refuses to accept that he inherited her attitude and sarcastic nature no matter what her husband says.

In addition to being a wife and mom, she’s also a wino, a coffee addict, and an avid lover of all types of books–romances still being her all time favs. Her husband likes to claim that reading is her obsession but she just says it’s a passion…there’s a difference. Not that she’d expect a boy to understand.

Jessica has been writing since she was a little girl, but thankfully grew out of drawing her own pictures for her stories before ever publishing her first book. Because an artist she is not.
