She believes love can conquer all but can it? Kimberly Urbane has loved Jake Taylor since junior high school. Too bad Jake has always thought of her as one his best friend's little sisters, and Kimberly has always been too shy around him to prove otherwise. That is, until he unexpectedly comes back into town and needs a room to rent and Kimberly has one available, well, sort of. Long days, and even longer nights, prove that there is an undeniable attraction between them, but is it enough to convince Jake that he and Kimberly have a chance together? Or will he let painful memories from his past control his future and walk away, taking her heart with him? He believes there can be love without heartbreak, but is there? A bitter divorce has left Jake Taylor gun-shy when it comes to love until a visit to his hometown begins to change his mind. He never put much stock into Kimberly's obvious crush on him years ago, but now she's all grown up and the more time he spends with her, the harder it is to resist her. Jake knows he can't possibly give Kimberly the future she wants and deserves but his desire for her is strong and his ability to resist her is weakening. Should he stay and risk more heartbreak, or walk away for good? When wounded pride and well-kept secrets turn everything in their world upside-down, is it still possible to have the life they both dreamed of?

Encounters
Author: Jean L. Croyle
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 059551068X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 78
Book Description
Once in a rare while, an author shares real life experiences-not those descriptions of perfectly built and beautiful people with predictable outcomes, but everyday situations the average person can identify with. Encounters is that book. Author Jean L. Croyle based this richly humorous journal on her own dating life experiences as well as on those told to her by friends, family and acquaintances. There were too many for one novel but she chose the most heartfelt ones to share with her readers. Encounters will bring the reader into the often maddening, sometimes laughable and occasionally bittersweet times the single person lives while trying to make a life connection. Then, after group discussions, book clubs and other public arenas where Encounters is spoken of, the reader will find a quiet place and read it all over again. For inside each of us is a Tessa of sorts, complete with unique memories and heartaches. It simply feels good to relive the ups and downs the dating life offers.

Jake is a New York City fireman and devoted family man. Eric is climbing the corporate ladder at the expense of his wife and children. On a fateful Tuesday in September, two strangers meet for a startling moment in a smoke-filled stairway. Only one will leave the Twin Towers alive. Will he find his way home? The last thing Jake Bryan knew was the roar of the World Trade Center collapsing on top of him and his fellow firefighters. The man in the hospital bed remembers nothing. Not rushing with his teammates up the stairway of the south tower to help trapped victims. Not being blasted from the building. And not the woman sitting by his bedside who says she is his wife. Jamie Bryan will do anything to help her beloved husband regain his memory, and with it their storybook family life with their small daughter, Sierra. But that means helping Jake rediscover the one thing Jamie has never shared with him: his deep faith in God.

Fall for Him

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 303
Book Description
In Fall for Him by Andie Burke, seven-hundred-fifty square feet isn’t enough for the home-renovation-fueled hatred and the building sexual tension. Dylan Gallagher’s hot neighbor loathed him from the second he moved in, and causing a flood, falling through the floor, and landing directly onto that same neighbor’s bed probably means that’s unlikely to change. The poorly timed “It’s Raining Men” joke didn’t help. Meanwhile, ER nurse Derek Chang’s life is a literal when-rains-it-pours nightmare. A man he hates dropped into his life along with an astronomically expensive problem originating from Derek’s own apartment’s plumbing. Also, the local HOA tyrant has been sniffing around trying to fine him for his extended, illicit banned breed dog-sitting. Since Dylan also wants to keep the catastrophe quiet, he offers to fix the damage himself. Dylan’s sure he’s not Derek’s type, so he focuses all his ADHD hyper fixation energy on getting the repair job done as quickly as possible—avoiding doing anything stupid like acting on his very inconvenient crush. Meanwhile Derek tries to ignore that the tattooed nerd sleeping on the couch is surprisingly witty, smart, and kind, despite the long-term grudge Derek’s been holding against him. But will squeezing all their emotional baggage plus a dog into a tiny one-bedroom apartment be a major disaster...or just prove they’re made for each other? Fall for Him combines banter, hijinks, and heart in a story of finding out what it means to fix things after your life crumbles.
