I have read this before and thoroughly enjoyed re-reading this great romance
The characters were so great and the chemistry between the two main characters was scorching hot.

The story is well written and very enjoyable.

A Love that Repairs a Damaged Soul
The past makes our present and influences our future, coloring our experiences with the shades of pain or joy as life unfolds. In Rye Hart’s tale Damaged Goods focuses on the potential power of past pains as they impact today. She explores how the individual can be victim or agent in shaping future experiences.
Sean Evans has had his heart broken twice by the same woman—his wife, Telissa—once when betrayed him with another man, and again a year ago when she died of pancreatic cancer leaving him grieving her death and struggling to comfort their two children, Tommy 7 and Sarah 5. Now, he is relocating his grieving family from San Diego, California to Telluride, Colorado. Publicly, his reason for leaving his law firm where he was a partner and relocating was to provide a new start in a new place where he and the children could heal, but more importantly, this relocation is to hide. Sean soon discovers that uprooting his family and relocating to a new state is a breeze compared to single parenting while grieving and attempting to comfort grieving children. He needs help.
With boxes still not emptied and his head and heart not in the game, Sean embraces a suggestion from his grandmotherly neighbor—hire a nanny, specifically a local girl, Emily Ward, who having graduated from the state university with a degree in child development has returned to town and has become the go-to babysitter for the community while she tries to pay off student loans in order to gain financing for her dream day care.
Sean soon discovers that Emily is just what his family needs—she understands how to reach his children, cook and put his world in order. She is perfect—too perfect. No matter how wrong it is and how much he tries to distance himself from Emily, he can only think of her sexually. The lawyer in him only sees trouble ahead, and so he fires her before he acts on his desires and seduces her. As for Emily, she is having a terrible few days—hired and fired in less than a week from a job she loves and dealing with the ongoing pursuit of her creeper/wannabe boyfriend, Tanner, who doesn’t hear or understand the word “No.” And, while she has zero interest in the wannabe Tanner, she soon discovers that she really is drawn to Sean.
Damaged Goods is a touching affirmation of new beginnings and second chances in life. The damage done in the past does not close the heart to healing and loving..

What a heartwarming and heartbreaking story. Sean loved his children so much that he was willing to do anything to keep them together. He loved his deceased wife while also being angry at her because of the damage her deception did to their family. It’s so easy to feel guilty for caring about another woman and the children to feel guilty to want another mommy. I felt for everyone involved. The characters were complex and the story was believable. I enjoyed it very much.

ONE MOTHER-LOVING EXPERIENCE!!!
Holy jalapeno’s! Rye boasts one impressive spin that’s so heartwarming and touching with such passion, finesse and style that blows this bad boy wide open. I’m not sure I have the words to describe the feelings running rampant and the intense reactions for this rocking block buster. Wrangling the trials and tribulations along with some electrifying twists keep you on a razors edge navigating the sharp corners and sleek lines. A throng of vexing circumstances and startling events blast those churning emotions into play front and center. The realism and authenticity of the characters as their on point personalities blend and connect along with the graphically detailed scenes that really pull this baby together smoothly. Fantastic job Rye, thanks for sharing this bad boy with us.
