Olivia Gaines is at the #Crossroads with A Soldier for Hire

Philomena's short term solution just may lead to long term love.

It had to be the dumbest idea she’d ever had in her entire adult life, but desperation covered the slim body of Philomena Stephenson like a fine sheen of sweat. Her eyes ran over the ad several times, then she printed her words, proofed them once more before going back to the computer and clicking the send button. She would hire a hero to take home with her to her Grandpa's birthday.

Setting: Thompson, Georgia

Philomena's conservative family has lived on a family plantation for generations. A family or hardened soldiers, battled tested and medal wearers, had no room for the baby of the family's liberal boyfriends.

The upcoming 90th Birthday of her Grandfather pushes Philomena to take desperate measures and place an ad for a soldier who speaks the language of her family.

Secrets are revealed for both Philomena and her hero, Jade Cooper.
