Camryn Bennett has never been happier. Five months after meeting on a Greyhound bus, she and her soul mate Andrew Parrish are engaged-and a wedding isn't the only special event in their future. Nervous but excited, Camryn can't wait to begin the rest of her life with Andrew, a man she knows in her heart will love her always. They have so much to look forward to-until tragedy blindsides them.
Andrew doesn't understand how this could happen to them. He's trying to move on, and thought Camryn was doing the same. But when Andrew discovers Camryn is secretly harboring a mountain of pain and attempting to numb it in damaging ways, there is nothing he won't do to bring her back to life. Determined to prove that their love can survive anything, Andrew decides to take Camryn on a new journey filled with hope and passion. If only he can convince her to come along for the ride...
EXCERPT
I hear the water from the shower shut off, and seconds
later a loud bang vibrates through the wall. I jump up from the
chair, letting the remote control hit the floor as I rush toward the bathroom.
The edge of the coffee table clips the shit outta my shin as I pass.
I swing open the bathroom door. “What happened?”
Camryn shakes her head at me and smiles as she leans over
to pick the hair dryer up from the floor beside the toilet.
I breathe a sigh of relief.
“You’re more paranoid than I am,” she laughs.
She glances down at my leg as I rub it with my fingertips.
She sets the hair dryer back on the counter, comes up to me, and kisses the
side of my mouth. “Looks like I’m not the one of us who needs to worry about
being accident-prone.” She smiles.
My hands cup her shoulders and I pull her closer, letting
one hand fall down to touch her little rounded belly. I can barely tell she’s
pregnant. At four months I thought she’d at least be emulating a baby hippo,
but what do I know about this stuff?
“Maybe so,” I say, trying to hide the red in my face. “You
probably did that on purpose just to see how fast I could get in here.”
She kisses the other side of my mouth and then goes in for
the kill, kissing me fully and deeply while pressing her wet, naked body
against mine. I moan against her mouth, wrapping my arms around her.
But then I pull away before I fall into her devious trap.
“Dammit, woman, you’ve gotta stop that.”
She grins back at me. “You really want
me to stop?” she asks with that up-to-no-good smile of hers.
It scares the shit out of me when she does that. Once
after a conversation laced with that smile, she stopped having sex with me for
three whole days. Worst three days of my life.
