BLURB:
Sara Michaels is single again. And she’s
celebrating her thirtieth birthday with a complete spa makeover and a day of
boutique shopping with her two best friends. After a ten-month battle for freedom,
a long weekend in Nashville, Tennessee is just what she needs to erase the
memories of a broken heart.
Jack Tanner is the soon-to-be new partner at Chester & Dorsey
Development Firm. Jack’s love life has been on the back burner for years as
he’s built a successful career. But the moment he meets Sara, he takes a hard
look at his life and his priorities.
Sara steps out of her comfort zone and spends an unforgettable
weekend with Jack. She’s never felt so carefree. Until she realizes too late
that three days can change everything.
EXCERPT:
“So, were you surprised?”
“I don’t think surprised is the
right word. I was speechless. What did he tell Nick?”
“Not much. Just that you had called
and the two of you were talking again. He didn’t give any details. He was in
his car, on the way to the airport. He wasn’t sure if you would be mad or glad
to see him this morning, but he said he had to take a chance.” Beth paused. “So
I guess you were glad?”
“Yeah. When we talked last night, I
told him all of the reasons why this wouldn’t work and, of course, he had an
answer for every one of them. I finally wore down and told him that I’d try.”
“And . . . how do you feel today?”
“Is it possible to be terrified and
excited at the same time?” Her hands shook as they held the phone to her ear.
Her eyes were beginning to burn again. “I don’t know what to do.”
“There’s nothing to do. Just enjoy
spending time with him. Give it a few weeks to settle in and see if you still
feel the same. I know you care about him or you wouldn’t have been so upset
when you left here two weeks ago and you wouldn’t be stringing him along with
your pitiful text messages.”
“That’s the problem. I think I care
too much.”
“Don’t you think he’s just as
afraid? But he’s not going to let fear stop him. You shouldn’t either. You’re a
stronger person than that. Nothing worth having is easy, Sara. Give him a
chance and some honest time.”

Bio and Links:
My husband and I live in the suburbs of Nashville, Tennessee with
our eighteen-year-old son and three dogs. When I’m not working or writing, I
can be found with family and friends. I love to bake in the winter, grill in
the summer, and on occasion, I sneak away from everyone and curl up with a good
book.
I hope you enjoy my stories. Each one touches on modern day issues, fears,
and challenges that women face every day. And each one illustrates that love is
within reach if you let down those walls and allow your heart to open. Our
lives and experiences are so much more meaningful when we have someone to share
them with.
