Veronica Cruz has been through hell and back. After disconnecting with the world two years ago to be at the side of her dying mother, she’s left alone, unemployed, overweight, and feeling a decade older than her twenty-eight years. When her best friend coaxes her into joining the local gym, she meets Noah. Noah is everything she expected a young trainer to be—perfectly chiseled, supportive and motivating. There's just one glaring problem: Noah is eight years younger.

Noah Quintanilla has his eye on a boxing title—someday. 

Down for a few months with an injury, he is finally given the opportunity to train. Noah stumbles into one of the closest friendships he’s ever known, and before he knows it, he’s in love. But Veronica’s not having it—the age difference is too much. Their platonic relationship means having to watch her date other men—something that would make him crazy.

Noah is created by Elizabeth Reyes, an eGlobal Creative Publishing author. 

Noah

Everything was going smoothly until the plates started coming out. One of the things Chente's was famous for was the portions were humongous. Every plate that was placed on the table was commented on.


The waitress placed Rita's plate in front of her. It was this huge red mountain. Gio's sisters giggled as Rita's eyes grew looking at it.


"Damn!" Abel said, laughing. "Rita, what is that thing?"


Noah froze. Roni's attention had already been on that end of the table, but Noah glanced at her after the mention of Rita's name, and her eyes went from the burrito to Rita's face.


"It's a wet burrito," Rita said, laughing. "No one told me it would be this big!"
