A bit about the book
Can a
broken heart be renovated like an old house? Kit’s life came to a halt when her
husband slapped her with a divorce. Finding herself without a job or a place to
live, she’s forced to take Tunney Nichols up on his offer of cheap rent for his
parent’s house.The catch: she must allow him to renovate while she’s living
there. Out of fear, Kit tells a lie she soon regrets as she is drawn to the
sexy man plastering and painting his way into her heart.
Can Sarah forget the abuse from her
late husband? Can she fix her heart and the hearts of her children? With her two children in tow, she relocates
to be near her sister, she meets Jim, a neighbor and English professor. A
mutual interest in writing, paves the way for a friendship that blossoms into
romance. But is Jim the right man for Sarah or does another man from her past
still light her fire?
A SHORT EXCERPT:
Kit Alexander ordered a
Cosmopolitan, sat back, her heart racing in anticipation of tomorrow’s departure. After
twelve years of marriage, a career in banking and raising an eleven year-old
daughter, Kit was finally going to live her dream of becoming a published
author.
With their daughter safely
enrolled in boarding school, she could accompany her husband on a world tour as the
newest band member of Blue Waters band. Tagging along as a band wife,
Kit planned to write a book
about her experiences.
A tinny version of Johnny’s
favorite song came up. The familiar sound meant a text message arrived on her phone,
causing her to put down her drink.
Are you all packed? Is
Johnny there yet? Wishing you an amazing trip, Hugs, Sarah.
Kit typed in,
Yes, no. Our first three
cities are Amsterdam, London and Prague. Thanks, lady. Hugs, Kit.
Sipping her Cosmo, Kit
looked around La Nuit Française—a posh, intimate French restaurant decorated in
turquoise, red and gold, tucked into the west side of Manhattan. Beautiful people dressed in expensive
clothing pretending to be someone important filled the restaurant. In addition to paying through
the nose for the good food, they were also paying to be seen. Save me from such pretention. Wearing
a sexy dress in midnight blue silk, her dark cerulean blue eyes shining, her spun gold hair
draping well below her shoulders in loose curls, she was the loveliest woman in the room.
A man approach her table,
she smiled at her husband, Johnny, as he plopped down in the empty chair across from
her.
He ordered a beer plus
another Cosmopolitan for Kit.
“You look great, Kit,”
Johnny said, taking a swig of his beer. His gaze lowered to her neckline then returned to
her face.
“A fresh look for a new
start…tomorrow I launch a new life. We both do.” She picked up the second Cosmo and took a
sip.
“We need to talk about tomorrow,”
Johnny said, looking down at the silverware.
