No one knows what happens
tomorrow…
When Brooke Adams suffers
the unimaginable, she knows her heart will never be whole again. Faced with the
choice of giving in to her grief, or fighting to regain a resemblance to the
life she once knew, she chooses to fight.
Not ready to give up,
Brooke starts a new life where no one knows her past. As she slowly puts the
pieces of her life back together, Brooke meets her neighbor, Tyler Reynolds.
Soon, he becomes her friend, her rock…
and her complicated
constant.
Despite her best efforts,
she finds herself falling for him, but what will happen if Tyler learns the
truth about her past and realizes just how deep the damage is?
The risk might be too much…
EXCERPT
I am in such a rush to get home to Charlie
that I turn around, steaming coffee in hand, and walk right into this …um
…very handsome man’s chest.
I feel like such a loser.
“Oh my god…I can’t believe I just did that! I am so sorry!
Are you all right? Did I burn you?”
Did I burn you? Duh!
Of
course I’ve burned him! I’ve completely, second degree burned someone with a cup of coffee.
GAH!
Mortified!
“I’m
okay,” he says with a slight smirk across his
lips as he pulls his coffee-soaked
dress shirt away from his chest. How could he be all right? He’s lying. That coffee was ridiculously hot. I know. I had to
ask the barista to double cup it.
Suddenly,
I’m completely taken by how handsome my coffee
covered stranger is. Trying not to look obvious, I cautiously eye him up and down,
drinking in this incredibly sexy, rugged looking businessman. He’s taller than I am, I’d
guess around six feet,
with short, dark-sandy hair.
And his eyes…
He
has the most alluring ice-blue eyes I have ever seen. Definitely the poster boy
of what you would expect a man from California to look like.
Those eyes…a girl could seriously get lost in those eyes. Dressed in
navy slacks and a crisp, white, linen shirt…okay,
so
it’s no longer crisp and white. His sleeves
are rolled up, exposing tanned and toned forearms. I wonder how it would feel
to have those wrapped around me. Then it dawns on me…how long have I been standing her staring at him?
God, I hope I wasn’t too obvious!
Snapping
myself back to reality, it’s apparent that the hot coffee
I’ve spilled on him burns as I notice him wince.
“Really, it’s okay,” he says with a small chuckle.
Please say he didn’t notice me staring.
I
rush to grab some napkins from the barista, but when I turn back around the handsome stranger
is gone.
He’s left without saying a word.
I
can’t say that I blame him. I must have looked
like a crazy person because I most definitely was acting like one
