Lauren and Mark Burrows lost their
parents in a car accident one night. Despite their father being the drunk
driver, both struggle with the urge to turn to drink; Lauren most of all. When
all they have is each other, Lauren feels lost when Mark falls in love with
Cassie Warren and moves out.
Ethan Stone has been alone since
his divorce. His ex-wife took him for everything, and he has felt empty for a
long time. He's not looking for love, but Lauren brings him back to life. The
question is whether she can fight her demons for the man she loves, and if
Ethan can handle the wild ride that is life with
Lauren.
EXCERPT
Ethan leaned over to kiss her.
“I’m looking forward to going to bed too. If I’m
invited.”
She laughed, slapping his arm.
“Are you kidding? After all that fuss at the door, you had better bring your A
game tonight, Mister.”
“I don’t know about that, but I
could do with loving you some more. We’ll have to leave pretty early. My
schedule is full tomorrow.”
“You still
came?”
“Lauren, I told you. You’re worth
the effort. If I have to look for work down here, I
will.”
“I can’t believe anyone would do
that for me.”
“I love you. Even if you don’t
feel the same way, I’ll be there when you need me.”
She kissed him. This man was
special, and he was hers.
“I do feel the same way. My whole
life, no-one ever loved me,” she said.
“I bet that’s a lie. You have such
a good heart. Anyone who doesn’t love you isn’t worth
knowing.”
“Can we skip dinner and get to the
bed part?”
Ethan squeezed her hand. “Not
after the effort I put in. Maybe afterwards.”
“Well, you can’t wash the dishes.
There’s no hot water left.”
“You didn’t leave any for
me?”
Lauren draped her arms over
Ethan’s shoulders. “No. You should have joined me.”
“Next time,
beautiful.”
She looked away, not wanting to
meet his gaze. “What is it, Lauren?”
“No-one’s ever called me that
before.”
“Well, get used to it.”
