Blurb
Anika “Inky” Redding is passionate about two things; her love
of painting and her fiancé Evan. While working as a bartender to pay her bills,
she meets Cole, a sexy divorcee. She denies their mutual attraction and tries
to put him out of her mind.
When an abusive person from her childhood makes an unexpected
visit, Inky’s world is turned upside down. Secrets are revealed and truths are
exposed leaving Inky devastated and questioning what she thought was love. As
she picks up the pieces and tries to move on, she finds her path crosses with
Cole once again and this time, she cannot deny the passion between them.
Once she opens her heart again, will she be able to move
forward or will her past find a way to stop her?

“It’s even
more beautiful than I remember it.” I was not alone. His voice flowed over my
exposed back to the nape of my neck and climbed to my ears. I felt my skin
ignite with his rich smooth tone. Maybe this was the effect of the Cognac and
champagne combined with the emotion of the painting. I was afraid to turn
around. So many things could happen now. I could turn into a pillar of salt,
unlikely. I could blush or say something inappropriate, more likely. But the
most likely outcome would be that the tears that were just sitting there,
holding on for dear life, would break free and expose me completely. I chose to
look ahead. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to acknowledge him. I didn’t want to
break the spell. His hand rested at the small of my back and he spoke gently to
me, “It’s magnificent. You captured it perfectly… Anika.”

the one that stuck.

food). She's allergic to cats and cantaloupe and hates mushrooms...so if you
ever want to give her a gift, those are out
