At Long Last

Jayden works at a church and has quietly admired Jack, her friend's younger brother, for some time. Each time she opens the congregation's directory she studies his photo: a poised, assured young man who never seemed bothered by the women who crowded around him. Their paths finally cross more closely when Jack shows up uninvited at a gathering in his sister's house, and afterward he looks out for her, though he does not pursue her openly.

Jack is not the only one interested in him. A second attractive woman has set her sights on him, and Jayden's former fiancé tries to revive their relationship. Even with this competition, things between Jack and Jayden begin to grow after she attends his Police Academy graduation. Friends and family find the pairing surprising, and Jack is later wounded in the line of duty. In the end, the two admit their feelings for each other and plan a wedding.

At Long Last is book three in the Love Connections series.
