*first draft*

Amelia Lawrence thought she knew love when she fell for her boy-next-door best friend, Alexander (Dex) Larson. The summer after their college graduation, he moves away, leaving her crushed and wondering if she'll be able to move on without him. While he's off in California with his new job as a chef, Amelia has to get her mind off her best friend and into her new role as teacher.

Enter Braden, the essence of tall-dark-and-handsome, whom she meets at a local bar the night before her first day of teaching. They immediately hit it off which is great--until Braden shows up at the school where she's teaching to drop off his daughter, who is in her class. Amelia must find a balance between her work life and her personal life, but as feelings emerge, that proves to be harder than she could ever imagine.

This book is now available at Barnes & Noble and nook. This is now only a sneak peak of the book. Trina is a writer, one of her books finally made the best sellers list, so why can't she seem to write another one just as good. She's spent every dime she had, thinking that there would be more to come but even books on the best sellers list stop selling over time. What she needs is another novel, what she's stuck with is writers block. Seeing no other option, she's forced to move back in with her parents. Of course, she could do worse, I mean come on they live on a beach. It's absolutely beautiful with its quaint cottages and sandy beaches that stretch for miles. Trina left this small Island for the big city life long ago after something tragic happened. She has kept this secret for years and intends to die with this secret, until she gets drunk one night and confides in an old friend, Sebastian. Sebastian is sexy, hot and successful, he's a doctor, she could do worse right? And then, there's Alex who she was in love with ten years ago when she ran from the island, does she still love him, or should she leave the past in the past and find happiness with Sebastian. Does she even see Sabastian as more than just a friend? Alex is an ex-Marine turned Sheriff of the island. He's seen more than one man should in their lifetime and is a little broken from the experience. Add that to the fact that Trina broke his heart ten years ago and you get an angry man with a chip on his shoulder. Does his cold exterior match what he's really feeling inside, or has he never quite gotten over Trina? Only he knows the truth as he keeps her at arm's length.
