When I arrived at your resort, I was broken. Emotionally and professionally, I had nothing left.

The last three books I published bombed and the ink was barely dry on my divorce papers. The divorce I never saw coming.

All I needed was peace and quiet, and you gave it to me. 

That and so much more.

Hope. Courage. Friendship.

Passion.

The last thing I want to do is leave, but if I stayed, I'd only be staying for you.

Staying for You

I grin. Damn I love these walkie talkies. Like. Seriously, they are the absolute coolest and most fun things ever invented.


"If you saw me right now, you’d hardly call me beautiful. Over."


"Doubtful. I’ve only seen you look beautiful. Even when you’ve gone a day too long between showers. Over."


I lift my phone and look at myself in the reverse camera and wince. Yeah. It’s not pretty.


"You forgot to say over. And yeah. But that was your wording, not mine. Over."


"Did you have a purpose for interrupting my incredibly busy schedule? Over."


"Are you done writing your next best seller for the day? Over."


I grin and bite my bottom lip. He’s so encouraging. Always giving me the space I need to pound on my keyboard, as he calls it.


"I could be. What’d you have in mind?"
