Sometimes you’re so busy writing other people’s stories that you lose the plot of your own. This wasn’t how Kelsey Worthington’s day was supposed to go. She wasn’t supposed to be picking up Starbucks for her smarmy boss. She wasn’t supposed to get hit by a car that jumped the curb. And she certainly wasn’t supposed to wake up in a hospital room next to Georgina Tate—the legendary matriarch of New York City businesswomen. Kelsey and Georgina couldn’t be more opposite. Kelsey’s a dreamer, a writer who questions her own skill. And Georgina is a confident businesswoman whose years of shouldering her way into boardrooms and making her voice heard have made her far too outspoken for the faint of heart. But now, when Georgina’s failing kidneys force her to face some big regrets about the way she’s lived her life, the two women recognize they share a common thread. Maybe it’s time to confront a few things. They must ask themselves: What if I said yes to everything I’ve always said no to? With Georgina as her companion, Kelsey soon finds herself doing things she’s never done before. Eating street food. Swimming in the ocean. Matchmaking for Georgina with the help of Georgina’s handsome son. And writing her own romance—both in book form and in real life. So begins the Summer of Yes.

Book Description
She’s out to prove that there’s no such thing as choosing happiness. Isadora Bentley follows the rules. Isadora Bentley likes things just so. Isadora Bentley believes that happiness is something that flat-out doesn’t exist in her life—and never will. As a university researcher, Isadora keeps to herself as much as possible. She avoids the students she’s supposed to befriend and mentor. She stays away from her neighbors and lives her own quiet, organized life in her own quiet, organized apartment. And she will never get involved in a romantic relationship again—especially with another academic. It will be just Isadora and her research. Forever. But on her thirtieth birthday, Isadora does something completely out of character. The young woman who never does anything “on a whim” makes an impulse purchase of a magazine featuring a silly article detailing “Thirty-One Ways to Be Happy”—which includes everything from smiling at strangers to exercising for endorphins to giving in to your chocolate cravings. Isadora decides to create her own secret research project—proving the writer of the ridiculous piece wrong. As Isadora gets deeper into her research—and meets a handsome professor along the way—she’s stunned to discover that maybe, just maybe, she’s proving herself wrong. Perhaps there’s actually something to this happiness concept, and possibly there’s something to be said for loosening up and letting life take you somewhere . . . happy.

Book Description
Ruby Barclay knows she isn’t marrying for love. Love was never the plan. After losing her parents at the age of sixteen and fighting the state for guardianship of her siblings, Ruby is a pragmatist, not a romantic. And Wesley Landry, a fellow surgeon, is her best option for a safe and stable future. That is until she catches him with the florist’s assistant moments before their wedding ceremony. For five years now, Ethan Shuff has watched the love of his life plan her future with another man, a man not even close to worthy of her. Ethan had helped Ruby fight for her siblings. He’d driven her back and forth to med school, then to her residency. He’d only held off on telling her his feelings because she was so determined to have the perfect life, a life he wasn’t sure he could give her as a cowboy working with underprivileged kids on the side. He’d only come to her wedding to close that unrequited chapter of his life for good. But perhaps it wasn’t as unrequited as he thought. Because when Ruby falls into his arms for comfort at the church after Wesley’s betrayal, they both feel something. He can see it in her eyes. So, when she begs him to whisk her away from the wedding on his motorcycle, Ethan is more than happy to oblige. And even as Ruby tries to convince herself she feels nothing for Ethan but friendship, her repeated dreams of him kissing her say otherwise. Listen for FREE to the incredible Jay Dyess perform this book on the Say with Jay channel on YouTube. Reviews for Dreaming of Her Cowboy's Kiss: ★★★★★ "Ruby was at the church getting married and Ethan was there too, his heart was about to fall out of his chest because the woman he had secretly loved all his life was marrying somebody else. Would something happen before the wedding to change her mind and if so, how would she escape the pain that it caused and who would be right there to take her away and keep her safe?" - KRP ★★★★★ "A person's love for another person can never be as great as God's love for each and every person. But stories about how two people of good character love one another, give me a glimpse of how God loves me, and of how God loves each of us. Ruby's love for Ethan, and Ethan's love for Ruby are that type of a love story." - Old Dog ★★★★★ "Once again, Jessie helps the word of God collide with the real world, and the hopes and dreams we have in our hearts. Ruby has plans to marry Wesley, while a man who loves her watches the woman he's loved since they met prepare to walk to the altar. He stands back because circumstances are insurmountable. Well, they are insurmountable to anyone but God. With God, all things are possible. Truly." - L.Gross ★★★★★ "God's hand was very definitely upon Ethan and Ruby's life. I laughed; cringed; sighed and cried throughout this book. Your amazing storytelling wrapped up so many emotions and happenings together that completely captivated me. Thanks for another fascinating book." - Judi T ★★★★★ "This book is another example of why I love Jessie Gussman and her books. This story had heart and soul as it showed how God works in our life if we let him. That doesn’t mean that everything is sunshine, but you can be sure that God will not give you more than you can bear. He brings peace and joy. Jessie shows this and doesn’t preach. She will enrich you with her stories showing how character can develop along the way." - HiDesert Granny Books in the Cowboy Mountain Christmas series: Dreaming of Her Cowboy's Kiss Dreaming of His Convenient Kiss Dreaming of Her Secret Santa's Kiss Dreaming of His Snowed In Kiss Dreaming of Her Best Friend's Kiss Dreaming of His Pen Pal's Kiss

Reviews for Dreaming of Her Cowboy's Kiss: ★★★★★ "Ruby was at the church getting married and Ethan was there too, his heart was about to fall out of his chest because the woman he had secretly loved all his life was marrying somebody else. Would something happen before the wedding to change her mind and if so, how would she escape the pain that it caused and who would be right there to take her away and keep her safe?" - KRP ★★★★★ "A person's love for another person can never be as great as God's love for each and every person. But stories about how two people of good character love one another, give me a glimpse of how God loves me, and of how God loves each of us. Ruby's love for Ethan, and Ethan's love for Ruby are that type of a love story." - Old Dog ★★★★★ "Once again, Jessie helps the word of God collide with the real world, and the hopes and dreams we have in our hearts. Ruby has plans to marry Wesley, while a man who loves her watches the woman he's loved since they met prepare to walk to the altar. He stands back because circumstances are insurmountable. Well, they are insurmountable to anyone but God. With God, all things are possible. Truly." - L.Gross ★★★★★ "God's hand was very definitely upon Ethan and Ruby's life. I laughed; cringed; sighed and cried throughout this book. Your amazing storytelling wrapped up so many emotions and happenings together that completely captivated me. Thanks for another fascinating book." - Judi T ★★★★★ "This book is another example of why I love Jessie Gussman and her books. This story had heart and soul as it showed how God works in our life if we let him. That doesn’t mean that everything is sunshine, but you can be sure that God will not give you more than you can bear. He brings peace and joy. Jessie shows this and doesn’t preach. She will enrich you with her stories showing how character can develop along the way." - HiDesert Granny Books in the Cowboy Mountain Christmas series: Dreaming of Her Cowboy's Kiss Dreaming of His Convenient Kiss Dreaming of Her Secret Santa's Kiss Dreaming of His Snowed In Kiss Dreaming of Her Best Friend's Kiss Dreaming of His Pen Pal's Kiss
