Summary
After five years and zero commitment, Meredith “Merrie” Jane walked away from her long-term relationship. She wants to be with someone she can start planning her future with. A man who will love her madly and deeply. When she crosses paths with her ex’s brother at a party six months later, the last thing she expects is to discover that he’s been harboring feelings for her and that she has feelings for him, too.
Hunter DeSeau adored Merrie long before his competitive younger brother asked her out. Unable to dismiss his feelings for her, he spent the past year distancing himself from them both. But now that their relationship is over and done, he’s faced with the hardest decision of his life. Break the rules and pursue the woman he wants more than anything in the world or keep putting everyone else’s happiness ahead of his own.
Merrie has spent her entire life playing by other people’s rules. As she examines her feelings for Hunter, she realizes a startling truth. She’s been with the wrong brother all along. But choosing Hunter means exposing herself to gossip, rumors and hard feelings. In a society where perception is everything, is their love worth the risk?
I’m thoroughly excited for you and your prequel, Reese. I’m on the VIP list and I’m happy to get your email installments. Although, I’ll have to play “catch up” to get them all read. It’s the same old song—not enough time and juggling too many balls in the air! All the best to you, my friend. 🙂
Demetria! Good to see you. Hope you’re doing well. Thank you for the congrats. The indie publishing journey is both thrilling and exciting. All the best to you, too. Hope we finally get a chance to have that cup of coffee during the exciting year ahead.
