Sandra Holliday, the heroine brings riveting romances between two men. Wesley, the man she’s met to end her years of less than perfect choices; choices that left her single and broke. Then, along comes<br />Carson Holiday, who drops back into Sandra’s life, reigniting an attraction they can’t deny. When Carson reappears, Sandra must choose again. Here’s one scene from the book that will entice a person to read this spell-binding book:<br />"Believe me, Ive been sleeping with the lights on for..." A dot of red caught my attention. "I don't believe it!"<br />"What?" Abby joined me by the window. She scanned the street but obviously didn't see what I did. "What?"<br />"There." I pointed. "Beside the green house on the corner. See the red car?" We had a good overview of the street from the second floor. If we'd been ground level, the car would've been hidden. "She must've followed me here. This is getting ridiculous."<br />"Who is it?" Her eyes squinting, Abby tried to see the Mustang's occupant.<br />"A woman who lives in Wesley's apartment building." I stepped to the side, the coffee-brown drapes offering me a hiding place. I peeked around the drape's corded edge. "She's following me. I knew it!<br />"Why? Who is she?"<br />I pulled Abby over to me, talking in hushed tones, as if my stalker might overhear. Telling her the story of my morning encounter with Eva, harassed ex-cop-turned-private detective, gave me goose bumps.<br />"You spent the night with Wesley?" Abby's voice boomed. "Is this getting serious?"<br />"Abby, aren't you listening?" I tugged on her arm. "I'm being stalked!"<br />"Oh, you're being followed by a jealous woman."<br />"That's called stalking!" <br />The plot thickens, with a secret admirer, a redheaded stalker, and an eccentric millionaire that throws her on a dangerous path. A surprising ending will throw the readers. I am a fan of Brenda’s and am waiting for her next book patiently.rbooth43https://www.blogger.com/profile/13397822821356862700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-495582277684750578.post-42440318687776360692010-10-13T20:46:46.350-04:002010-10-13T20:46:46.350-04:00Brandy - I do love the midwest.

The hero is hunky. The plot twists are unpredictable, and I work hard to guess whodunit and why. <br />Ana MorganAna Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12325215832587691886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-495582277684750578.post-87048624366035307452010-10-12T08:07:32.811-04:002010-10-12T08:07:32.811-04:00wow sounds like agreat family you are truely luckwow sounds like agreat family you are truely luckJennifer Mathishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01348224965449535905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-495582277684750578.post-32884141823682548822010-10-12T07:09:48.540-04:002010-10-12T07:09:48.540-04:00Hi Brenda,
