About Where There's Smoke

The best second-chance love story! One no-strings-attached, irresponsible night with a handsome stranger that ended up changing Mackenzie's life forever. Now she has to decide if she tells Ewan about that night and risk ruining his relationship and her professional reputation, or keep the truth a secret. For readers who eat up Rachael Johns, Maya Linnell and Mandy Magro. Mackenzie Knight has her life on track. She runs a successful business and life is going pretty smoothly - until Ewan Campbell shows up unexpectedly and rocks her boat. The last place Ewan wants to be is at a meeting with the wedding planner his fiancée had to have. He regrets coming along even more so after he realises that he and the wedding planner have an almost-forgotten history together. Now Mackenzie faces a dilemma—does she reveal the secret that could ruin his relationship and her business reputation by telling him? Or does she choose silence and continue to go about her nice, uncomplicated life? Whatever her decision, Mackenzie knows it will have a lasting impact on all of their lives. Could a second-chance love story be in her future?
