Granted Redemption — Katie Mettner

A lifetime ago Grant Harris was an Australian surfer at the top of his sport, until one wave changed everything. Fifteen years later, Grant had become bitter, lonely, and disillusioned. He was ready to put his past behind him, but to do that he must face it head on. A new job all the way across the country in Duluth, Minnesota was his only hope of ridding himself of the ghost that haunts him.A lifetime ago Carla Coffers was a runaway teen with no family and no hope for a future. Fifteen years later, she was a successful business woman as owner of Carla's Kinky Café, on beautiful Lake Superior. Her friends thought she had it all, but Carla still yearned for the one thing she never had, a family. Grant and Carla's lives collide one fall day, neither of them expecting to find their future in the eyes of the other. A cup of coffee, a car, and a confession come together to grant them redemption from the past and hope for the future.
