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.
Teaser Excerpt:
As
the song continued, Jack led Sara around the dance floor in silence. When they
rounded a corner, out of sight from their friends, he leaned down and softly
brushed his lips across hers. A fleeting gesture. By the time Sara realized she
had been kissed, he was whispering in her ear, “I’m looking forward to seeing
you again tomorrow. Could I take you to breakfast before you head out to Beth’s
stables?”
His
breath on her neck made her feel intoxicated. And something inside her wanted
more.
After
a moment, Sara slowly turned her head and met his lips, this time kissing him
back. She wasn’t sure where her courage came from, but it felt good to be in
Jack’s arms. It had been a long time since someone had kissed her so gently or
held her with such reverence. She couldn’t remember the last time she felt
desired, but she was going to enjoy every minute. Even if on Tuesday she had to
return to the real world and her real life.
Jack
urged her closer, but their feet kept dancing to the slow rhythm of the piano
and before she knew it, the kiss was over. Watching a slow smile form on his
lips, she could see his pleasant surprise, mixed with a simmering heat.
“We’re
leaving around eleven.”
“Then
I’ll pick you up at eight. There’s a café down the street from where Jenny
lives.”
As
the song ended, Sara turned back toward the direction of their table. As Jack
placed his hand at the small of her back, his thumb gently rubbed against her
skin, sending a flutter through her stomach. He brushed one last kiss on her
earlobe and whispered, “Thank you.”

About the Author
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.
