Miss You
Mayelana nale ebook
It gets messy when your loyalties are split. For all of his life, Ben Waters knew he would grow up, find a woman among his tribe, marry and have children. His grandfather, the chairman of the Yakama Tribal Council, had instilled it into him from day one. It was his duty.
But then? He went away to college, because the tribe also needed educated members, and he found a woman — and she wasn't Yakama. And he walked away from her.
Now, the tribe needs him, his grandfather insists. He must come home. He must leave his life in Portland, leave his job and friends at Eyewitness News, leave the woman he loves and cannot have.
And he obeys his grandfather, because he always has.
Past mattered. Family mattered. Heritage mattered.
But so does his heart. And his heart has other ideas.
Book 10 in the Newsroom PDX new-adult suspense series. Foul language, some sex, lots of politics — because it's Portland.

L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys.
L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for any oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead — a field that liked people who asked questions!
As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, and Washington, D. C. — places that have become the sites for her books. She got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism.
She is an over-educated, bleeding-heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency. Some of her thrillers have werewolves in them — that doesn’t faze her either.
You can follow her on Facebook at ljbreedlove. Best place to find her — besides a local coffee shop — is at ljbreedlove.com. You can sign up for her email newsletter there!
