She may have inadvertently given him the idea.Fired, frightened, but ready to fight, Finley escapes to Sandhill, the quirky Florida Keys artist colony where she spent the first eleven years of her life. It’s the only place she’s been really happy and the location of the only healthy relationship she ever had—in sixth grade. The skinny little boy she hasn’t seen in fifteen years still haunts her dreams.When she spots a room for rent in the old Victorian she dreamed of owning as a little girl, Finley assumes it’s fate. The place’s handyman is strangely familiar—and insanely hot. Problem is, he’s a man who seems to have even more secrets than her…Retired soccer player Landon Hale works security for OakLand Resorts while rehabbing his barely operating Victorian bed and breakfast. He’s changed quite a bit from the spindly boy he once was, so when his childhood crush shows up on his doorstep and doesn’t seem to recognize him, he isn’t surprised. Unfortunately, introducing himself will be dicey—OakLand’s just hired him to hunt her down for stealing corporate secrets.Finley and Landon’s reunion reignites sparks even as secrets complicate their fragile trust. The fate of Sandhill—and their future—hangs in the balance.Whistleblow is a smart, laugh-out-loud, exhilarating story about true love, second chances, and the rewards of telling the truth when the world would rather you stay quiet.
