“Sounds easy enough,” he replied, then asked, “I know it’s kind of early, but I’m starving. What are your plans for dinner tonight?”
“I was thinking we could either do brats or steaks. I picked up a tri tip too, but figured we could save that for the last night.”
“That sounds good, and for tonight, steaks sound perfect.”
“We can head back and get the grill fired up. I can always hop on the four wheeler and take a quick turn around the camp before dinner.”
“Perfect.”
We were headed back toward our cabins when the sound of leaves crunching had me bracing and looking to my left.
The last thing I expected to see was a leggy brunette in cut-offs and a tank top come walking out of the woods. Being an hour away from the closest town meant we didn’t often get unexpected visitors, but I was more curious than worried when she spotted us and relief flooded her face.
“Hey,” she said, her low, throaty voice open and friendly. “I’m so happy to see you guys. I parked back in the welcome lot, which is empty by the way, and have been growing more and more worried. This is Camp Gabriel Lewis, right? I’m supposed to be filling in for my sister as chaperone for the week while my nephew’s here at camp.”
I took in her big brown eyes and long dark hair, which was currently going wild and trying to escape its ponytail, then shot Reardon a look before turning back to her and replying, “I hate to say it, darlin’, but camp doesn’t start until next week.”

I don’t know that I would have finished Imperfect Harmony if it wasn’t for the consistent support and encouragement of my husband, Kevin, my alpha reader, Debbie Prins, and Julie Bromley with Red Coat PR. I’d wager nearly every author goes through a spell where writing even one sentence feels like a chore. Such was the case for me for many months. But Kevin, Debbie, and Julie stood by my side throughout the tough times and then cheered me on when the Muse finally returned. I’ll be forever grateful for that!
Thank you, as well, to my magnificent beta readers, Diane Kaye, Savanah Lappin of RED Mark Proofreading, Jessica Wentz, author Bethany Lopez, and author Marilyn Almodóvar. You ladies always keep me on my toes and make sure I turn out the best story possible.
I’d also like to give a shoutout to my amazing street team, Raine’s Stormers. You gals are always there to do what you can to promote every one of my book releases, every sale, every giveaway, and every chapter written. Michelle Cornwell-Jordan, I’d like to single you out for all of the promotion you do beyond just the special events. I can’t tell you how much that means to me!
And, as always, to my fans...thank you so much for following me from one genre to the next and continuing to support me, my characters, their romances, and their worlds. You’re the best fans an author could ask for and I’m grateful for you every day!
Raine Thomas, Imperfect Harmony (House of Archer #1)
