Blurb:
Cassie Edwards, a former foster child, purchases an 1870s
Victorian mansion, the one home from her childhood where she felt like part of
a family. She’s spending her summer lovingly restoring it, with dreams of one
day raising a family of her own here. Rayne Tucket, a photojournalist, is
haunted by the death of his best friend in Afghanistan, a death he thinks is
his fault. He survives day to day. Forever is not in his vocabulary. Swearing
off photography, he answers an ad for a handyman—mindless, no emotion involved.
As the two of them renovate her house, can Cassie show Rayne that love is
strong enough to heal all wounds?
Excerpt:
The intimate closeness made her stomach flutter. The
proximity of their bodies, the rush of the water, and his feathering touch on
her lips made her dizzy. She gripped his arms for support. He grasped her
waist, staring deep in her eyes.
He was going to kiss her. She
knew it. His pupils dilated. Time slowed. The rushing water pounded around her.
She opened her mouth, as much to drink in air as to get ready to kiss him back.
His eyes narrowed, focused on her lips. She leaned toward him. Their wet bodies
pressed against each other. Her breasts tingled, and her stomach heated at the
contact. She wanted this to go on forever, but at the same time, she wanted him
to hurry up and kiss her so their lips could finally meet. At the last possible
second, he pushed away.
She stood there, confused and
aching.
“I’m not the staying kind,
Cassie.”
She frowned. “What do you
mean?”
“A woman like you needs a man
who’ll stay forever. My time here has an expiration date.”
She ducked under the water.
When she came up, she pushed her hair out of her face. “I know you’re leaving.
You don’t have to, though.”
“Yes, I do.”
“Why?”
“Because I have a promise to
keep.”
“What kind of promise?”
“The unbreakable kind.”
