New Adult Romance
Blurb-
No sooner than Laney Walker and her long-time best friend Evan Allen
finally delve into romantic feelings for each other, college sends
them packing, miles apart. Never the social butterfly, Laney is slow
to adjust to life with a new softball team, crazy roommate and co-ed
dorm. Without the support system of her Dad and her Evan, she's left
to cope with diving into the real world on her own.
Just when she thinks nothing could tear her apart from her old life
any further, she meets the mysterious, debonair Dane Kendrick and her
heart is left divided.
The familiar love she shares with Evan has always been easy and
sweet, but she can't help wondering what would happen if she let go
and took a leap of faith into what she never knew she wanted? A jump
that Dane seems more than happy to help her through.

Excerpt
It
didn’t take long to find Mr. Allen. Turns out the Allen family had
recently moved in right down the street. Dad wanted to let the man
know that he thought what his son had done was noble and sure hoped
Evan wasn’t in any trouble. Confirming he wasn’t, it’d only
seemed right to invite the boy fishing with us.
At
least, that’s how Dad explains it to me. It doesn’t stop me from
pouting the whole ride to the pond and trying to ignore the intruder
in the back seat with me.
“Thanks
for inviting me, Mr. Walker. I love fishing.” Sure
he does; what a butt kisser.
“My
pleasure, Evan, we’re happy to have ya’ along. Aren’t we,
Laney? “
“Of
course, Daddy.” I smile sweetly before continuing. “Say, Evan,
you know how to bait your own hook, right?” What?
I’m genuinely concerned. I don’t want to end up doing everything
for the kid.
Evan
just looks at me from the corner of his eye, not answering.
“Dad,
did you bring him a life jacket? We wouldn’t want him to fall in
and drown if he hooks a big one.”
Dad
doesn’t answer me, either. They both look uncomfortable; I’m not
the least bit perturbed. There’s
more where that came from, boys!
I can do this all day and it’s well-deserved, as far as I’m
concerned. How dare Dad invite this boy into our time together? My
time with Dad is sacred. We don’t need company.
“Hey,
Evan…” I drawl, kicking the smartass act up a notch as we climb
out of the truck and grab our gear, “don’t get used to this. One
rescue, one trip. Got it?”
Dad
acts like he doesn’t hear me and walks ahead to the water. He
thinks his new little hero can hold his own with me. We’ll see.
“Rescue,
huh? That’s what you think that was?”
So…
Evan can answer.
“Whatever, you know what I mean. I don’t care what anyone thinks
of me. My dad and I are just fine without them. I don’t need new
friends any more than I needed saving. I can take care of myself just
fine.”
“Oh,
I could see that, tiger. That’s not why I did it.”
Tiger?
Could he not remember my name? Typical boy. “Why did you then?”
He
thinks for a minute, kicking the dirt with his toe, and then shrugs.
“I’ll let you know as soon as I figure it out.”
I
never heard what he came up with. Turns out, we had plenty of other
things to talk about.
