Draw You Near: A Multiethnic Christian Romance

Lars and Abilene are drawn to each other, but will their relationship end up like an unfinished painting?

Savannah artist Abilene Dupree keeps her personal life out of her commercial paintings except one. That one painting has now brought Londoner Lars Cargill back to the coastal town and into her art world. Can she hold the handsome Englishman at bay before he invades her personal space and paints his way into her heart?

A multiethnic contemporary Christian romance, Draw You Near is Book 3 in USA Today bestselling author Jan Thompson's Savannah Sweethearts series of sweet, clean, wholesome, and inspirational contemporary Christian romances set in the historic city of Savannah, Georgia, and on the small beach town of Tybee Island by the Atlantic Ocean.

Lars's Labor...While on vacation in Savannah last year, Lars Cargill bought a small watercolor painting for his estate in England. The more he stared at the artwork, the more he wanted to meet the woman in the painting.

This summer, Lars returns to Savannah to find the elusive real-life Lady and the Sea. Problem is, the artist says she doesn't exist.

Of course, he doesn't believe her. Otherwise, he wouldn't be showing up in her art classes and following her around. He doubts she has the heart to turn him away, not when he shows her that he has artistic potential.

Abilene's Art...Abilene Dupree is busy trying to make a living as an artist and art teacher in Savannah. She sells commercial art, not personal stories. Although much of her heart goes into her paintings, she doesn't reveal her soul, not even to the clean-cut guy with cute dimples who is searching for the woman in her Lady and the Sea painting.

She keeps telling Lars that the illusive woman in the painting doesn't exist. Well, the more she tells him that, the more she begins to believe her own words.
Before she could give him the real answers he seeks, Lars's own past shows up and he has to leave Savannah. Will their relationship be like an unfinished painting?
