BOOK BLURB
Savannah
Mason fought for independence since she was a young girl, smothered by a
controlling father who insisted she take over his medical practice one
day. Now, at the age of thirty, alienated from her father, the career
minded journalist spends long hours at her job, hoping to take the spot as
anchor.
On
her darkest day twelve years ago, Savannah
agreed to give her child up for adoption. She never even had the chance to hold
her. On her daughter’s birthday, a
chance encounter gives Savannah
an opportunity to explore a corner of her heart she thought was lost forever.
The
last thing Savannah
wants is a relationship, especially one with a doctor who happens to have two
young children.
Rob
Sinclair, a cardiothoracic surgeon and NY Times best-selling author, needs a
promo spot on the television show The News Stop. When Savannah gets the interview over a senior
reporter, a door opens to her future. However, first she must face the
sorrow of her past and cast away the agony of guilt before she’s free to accept
love.
Rob’s
commitment to climb the ladder of success and provide a good life for his two
small children keeps him on the road. He’s determined to push forward
despite the heartache of a broken marriage. His deepest fear is being an
absent parent. When he meets Savannah Mason, desire and passion awaken
his broken spirit. Will he ever be able to trust another woman?
Savannah and Rob’s strong
attraction to one another is undeniable as they follow the path to a place
where honesty, love and forgiveness, can bring them both home.
When
a man who seems totally wrong for Savannah
slowly weaves his way into her heart, will he accept her when he learns about
her past?
Savannah and Rob’s attraction to
one another is undeniable. As they follow the path to a place where
honesty and forgiveness can bring them both home, will it be enough to heal the
scars of the past and allow them another chance at love?
EXCERPT
Savannah stood and slowly moved toward him.
Her chest tightened with each step. As she approached him and admired his broad
shoulders, it dawned on her he could be a candidate for People’s sexiest man
alive. Control yourself.
“I’m happy here.” Savannah
admitted. “I love it when the morning light shines on the water and it mimics
fine pieces of crystal.”
Rob slowly approached her. The look in his
eyes told her he had more than the view on his mind. Savannah turned away, afraid of what might
happen next. Before she could stop him, they were too close for comfort. An
electric energy surged between them. With one swift movement, Rob reached for
her and gently placed his lips on hers. He cradled her head in his hands as if
she was a precious jewel. The warmth of his touch sent shivers down her spine
and the world stood still. When Rob’s hands moved slowly across her back, her
body went limp and it took her to a level of arousal she never expected. It all
happened so quickly, she didn’t have time to react. She found herself
spellbound by the feel of his rock hard body pressed up against her chest. All
of the emotions she’d kept inside emerged when Rob held her tight. When they
finally parted, Savannah
stood frozen in shock with her heart pounding and her ears ringing.
Rob’s expression made him look as if
he broke the law. He quickly took a step back. “I don’t know what to say. I’m
so sorry for my rude behavior.”
“You weren’t rude. I didn’t stop you.”
“I don’t know what got into me. You’re an
amazing woman and I find you terribly attractive.” He stared deep into her eyes.
“Thank you.” Savannah looked down, still shocked, but flattered.
“I’d like to take you on a real
date. Would that be possible? Is it against your ethics to date someone you’re working
with?”
“There’s no rule against dating a
guest on the show. I make my own rules.” Savannah
could not believe her own words.
“That’s what I like about you. You’re
not afraid of taking a risk. I could tell from the moment I met you, you were a
strong, independent woman.”
Unanswered questions twirled around in Savannah’s mind. What am
I doing making a date with a doctor and one with
a family, no less. I must be
crazy. Her mind told her to run from
a relationship with a client, however, her body told her something completely
different.

KATHLEEN'S BIO
I write contemporary, paranormal, and erotic romance.
Although writing is my passion, nursing is my vocation. I work in an emergency room, and it’s been challenging, and rewarding, to be such an integral part of so many other’s daily struggles. I have a wonderful husband who always offers his support, and never complains about my crazy schedule. One of our favorite romantic getaways is Cape May, New Jersey, an old historic beach town where we take a step into the past, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures. Although my children are all grown with busy lives of their own, Chaz, our Shepherd mix, still dutifully stands guard at the house. We are also blessed with three adorable grandsons.
Other interests of mine include cooking, reading, and the theater. However, spending time with my family is most important to me. Even though my life is filled with work, family, etc., my mind continues to ponder the next story or concept for a new novel.
