Stacie
Nightingale doesn’t what the 2.5 million dollars of blood money
she’s been awarded as a result of the lawsuit she filed. She also
doesn’t want the memories that are flooding her mind, causing her
to remember the betrayal that led to her friend’s death and left
Stacie with a traumatic brain injury. Neither of those circumstances
matter though once her boyfriend Owen Landry proposes to her. She
doesn’t want his proposal because of the circumstances that drove
him to it. The mysterious woman he seems to be keeping company only
fuels her insecurity and doubt. Stacie loves Owen, but with her past
continuing to haunt her, she questions if their love is strong enough
to survive.

Excerpt:
“Stace,
there's some stuff I need to tell you.” The dread in her brother’s
voice made Stacie Nightingale’s heart drop into her stomach. “Stuff
about Greg. He just got fired from the school for sleeping with a
student. Other girls are coming forward. Allegedly, this has been
going on for years.”
Her
phone bounced off the floor and disappeared under the couch as the
nausea she’d been battling all day returned, a vengeful stab that
made Stacie dizzy with fury.
Taking a
deep breath, she attempted to get her stomach and breathing under
control. On the exhale, she closed her eyes and imagined herself on
the ferry, taking in the sea air on a sunny day.
Keith’s
voice bellowed in the distance, calling her name and asking if she
was okay, but Stacie tried to focus on her breathing.
Once it
finally settled, she opened her eyes. Though her stomach still
threatened to unleash lunch, she couldn’t keep ignoring her
brother.
Dropping
onto her hands and knees, Stacie searched for the stupid phone,
hearing her brother continue to call her name and ask if she was
there.
There
was no way Keith could have just said what she heard. Maybe he was
messing with her. Except Keith was the nicest guy in the world. He
never messed with his sisters.
“The
phone slipped out of my hand,” she yelled. Her hand swept across
it, causing it to spin. When she finally managed to get a hold of it,
she brought it back to her ear with ice cold, slippery hands.

Big
dreamer and certifiable overachiever Susan Ann Wall embraces life at
full speed and volume. She’s a beer and tea snob, can be bribed
with dark chocolate, and the #1 thing on her bucket list is to be the
center of a Bon Jovi flash mob.
Susan is
a nationally bestselling, multi-genre author of racy, rule-breaking
romance and women’s fiction. Her bragging rights include nine books
in three different series, three perfect children, adopting an
amazing rescue dog, and a happily ever after that started while
serving in the U.S. Army and has spanned nearly two decades (which is
crazy since she’s not a day over 29).
In her
next life, Susan plans to be a 5 foot 10, size 8 rock star married to
a chiropractor and will not be terrified of large bridges, spiders,
or quiet people (shiver).
