Close your eyes for a
moment and picture this.
A gorgeous redhead
walks into a bar.
No, wait, a wedding
reception.
A gorgeous redhead
walks into a wedding reception. Poised, polished and flawless - on the outside.
He's tall, dark, and
handsome, exactly like a fairytale prince and he won't take no for an answer as
he leads her to the dance floor.
But this will be no
ordinary dance and theirs is no ordinary story. What begins as rhythmic steps
on a dance floor fluidly and beautifully becomes the rhythm of two hearts meant
to beat as one.
Until the music stops.
In a moment everything
she's put behind her comes crashing down, threatening to destroy what his love
has helped repair and rebuild.
Life throws punches
and it hits hard when you least expect it.
What they learn is
that sometimes, in order to be truly whole, you have to first be shattered to
your very core.

EXCERPT
“I’ll never get used to this,” Maggie
whispered, chopped and breathy, tearing her eyes away from mine.
“Used to what?”
“You.” She stood, took a step back, and extended her
arms between us, creating distance I didn’t want. “I’ll never get used to someone treating me
the way you do.” She shook her head like
she was trying to dislodge a memory or something.
I closed my eyes and tried to pull
myself together. “Maggie,” I said, “it
kills me to think that anyone would ever get a piece of you without
appreciating what they were getting first.”
I opened my eyes and pinned her with my stare, daring her to look away
from me. “Don’t do it again. Don’t give away pieces of yourself to anyone
who hasn’t earned them.”
Setting the guitar down, I stood and
took a step forward to close the gap she’d created. “You need to get used to it. I don’t want to be just someone to you. I want to be
the only one. And I promise you, Maggie Malone, if you let
me, I’ll earn all of the pieces of you before I take a single one.”
“You’re too late.”
My heart felt like it had been dropped
kicked across the fucking room. “Don’t
say that. Don’t say I’m too late.” I inched closer and cupped her face in my
palms.
“I meant that you’ve already earned
pieces of me.”
“What pieces?”
She looked up at me with teary
eyes. “All of them.”

About the author
I grew up in Alabama
and have always been an avid reader. I had a stack of those Little Golden Books
and I can remember reading Three Little Kittens over and over and over again.
It was my favorite. Fast forward and the older I got the more in love with books I became. So, I'm admitting that I am a huge nerd. The only reading I don't like are those math word problems. And I'm okay with that because no one has ever asked me in real life... "If I give you two bananas and take away six apples, how long will it take the southbound train to collide with the northbound train if Johnny left his house at midnight?" It just doesn't happen.
So, yeah, books are my
thing.
Oh and music. All
kinds. Love.It.
