On the dusty roads of Afghanistan, a bomb shattered Garrett's dreams. Years later, he's stuck behind the bar, working towards his own restaurant—and someone to share his life with. But the long hours leave him little time for relationships, and the few times he's tried, the women balk at dating an amputee. Lilah McKinney doesn't have dreams. Her abusive boyfriend has systematically destroyed them, even though he's never laid a hand on her in anger. A chance meeting with Garrett stirs longings for more, and like a starving woman given her first meal, she starts to see the abuse for the very first time. When her boyfriend snaps and nearly kills Lilah, Garrett steps in, but he can't stay. Lilah needs to reclaim her dreams on her own. Fate brings them back together almost a year later, a few weeks before Valentine's Day. Will Lilah share her dreams with Garrett? Or will her past come between them once again. WARNING: Love and Libations contains scenes of domestic violence and abuse that may be disturbing to sensitive readers.
