NEW BOOK!
UP FOR PREORDER, RELEASING JUNE 8.
STANDALONE SECOND CHANCE ROMANCE.
A bit about the book:
Torn between two men
proposing marriage, Sandy accepted Lyle, and moves in with him. After months of watching their love slip
away, she thinks things couldn’t get worse. Wrong. Sliding from heartbreak to humiliation on
national television, Sandy becomes gossip fodder from coast-to-coast. Deserted
by family and friends, she suffers the consequences of her mistake alone. After
all, life doesn’t offer up second chances, does it?
Devastated when Sandy
turned him down, Rafe couldn’t stop thinking about her. Witnessing her hideous
public spectacle, his heart aches. How he wishes she had selected him. But it’s
too late, now. He’s heading for a job in England in a few weeks. There’s no time
for a second chance. And, as everyone knows, wishes don’t come true, do they?
A taste...
Eleven
months ago. Behind the scenes at the reality TV show, Marriage Minded.
“Lyle, Rafe, Lyle, Rafe? Bill, help!”
Sandy moaned into the phone.
“Okay, give me the shit on these guys,”
her brother Bill said.
“Lyle is in real estate. He’s funny, nice,
and keeps talking about our future. He wants to renovate old buildings in
Detroit and start a renaissance there. He said we make a good team.”
“Sounds good. And the other guy?”
She sighed. “He’s so sweet. He’s French
Canadian. He’s an architect. I think he really loves me.”
“Architects don’t make crap. Real estate
is where the money is.”
“But Rafe…”
“You asked my opinion. So, you like this
Rafe guy better?”
“I did, until Lyle told me Rafe only went
on the show to get his green card.”
“What? Fuck that. Easy choice, Sandy. Dump
the Rafe guy. That’s all you need, a guy who sleeps with you for six months,
gets his green card, and takes off.”
“He doesn’t seem the type.”
Bill snorted. “Yeah. Right. Like an
asshole like that is gonna show his hand?”
“But he’s been so nice.”
“Who do you love?”
“Both, I think.”
“One more than the other? Come on, Sandy.
No one loves two guys exactly the same.”
“Guess I’m leaning toward Rafe.”
“Mr. Green Card? Forget it. If you think
you could do marriage with this Lyle guy, then pick him. The other one looks
like a phony.”
“Thanks, Bill.”
“Hey, what are brothers for?”
At the final ceremony, Sandy said “yes” to
Lyle’s proposal. It broke her heart to see Rafe cry. He turned away from the
cameras and shielded his eyes with his hand. Sandy hugged him and walked him to
the limo. Guilt washed over her until she reminded herself that he was simply seeking
a green card and not a wife.
Doubts about his reasons for being on Marriage Minded nagged at her, but would
asking him directly get her the truth? She
doubted it. Of course, he’d lie, then act offended she’d questioned his motives,
spouting on about his true love and how he only had eyes for her. No man would
admit to such low motives on the show—in front of the cameras, anyway.
What a cynic she’d become! She had to do the right thing for her, no matter what. Lyle would provide a stable future. At least that’s what he said, and her brother had agreed. Their arguments swayed her. Why, now that she’d said “yes” and Lyle was prancing around like a prize-winning rooster, did she not share his joy?
