Years

Jonerstown to stay. Sage’s life is soon turned upside down and Zander is there
to catch her.
Zander
Havilland leaves his high paying job in New York City to return to his hometown
to stay with his aging mother. An opportunity presents itself shortly after his
return, putting him on a collision course with the lovely, petite Sage Whitley.
Soon emotions long hidden for the beauty rush in and Zander is more than ready
to accept the inevitable.
Adversity
draws them closer together as they try to unravel a mystery involving a large
diamond, a rash of thefts, and murder. Can they solve the bizarre mystery
before it’s too late and explore the possibility of everlasting love?
Teaser Excerpt:
“You’re early,” she said when
she noticed Sage.
“Had a hard time sleeping last
night. Need the jolt sooner not later,” Sage professed. “Give me an espresso. I
need jet fuel instead of gasoline.”
Sherry laughed. “Sure thing.
What size? If you’re not used to drinking them, then I’d recommend going no bigger
than a medium.”
“Make it so.” It never ceased
to amaze Sage how efficient Sherry was at her job. Her steaming drink was
before her in no time. “You make preparing my orders look so easy,” she
declared, sipping the brew. “Wow, it’s strong.”
“You said jet fuel.” Sherry
said and then grinned.
“I guess I did. Thanks. I’ll
probably catch you later today. See you,” Sage said before turning to leave.
She stopped, rooted in place, when she saw who strolled in the door.
Zander stood in all his
gorgeous glory. He was wearing a tailored three-piece suit in a pleasant
charcoal color, which showcased his broad shoulders. A white dress shirt and a
cobalt blue tie completed his ensemble. His collar brushing, ink-black hair was
pulled back into a stubby tail. The corners of his mouth curled upward when his
eyes met hers.
His smile made her heart skip
a beat. Sage’s knees weakened and she leaned against the counter for support.
She knew she’d never see a more perfect male specimen than the man standing
before her.
He ambled over toward her and
stopped about a foot away.
Every one of Sage’s nerve
endings seemed to fire at once. Her pulse fluttered and the pit of her stomach
tingled.
“Good morning,” he said.
“Hi,” she managed and then
sipped her espresso. She frowned slightly. “This is stronger than I’m used to.”
Zander leaned down and sniffed
the brew through the opening. “You drinking the high octane stuff?”
“Huh…” Sage couldn’t seem to
form proper words. “Yeah,” she said when her synapses worked again. “I had trouble
sleeping last night.”
“You too?”
He flashed a brilliant smile again. “How is the espresso?”
