It's been months and Brenda has been begging her to go on a date with her older brother's best friend. Of course Audrey has declined. She's been married before and is happy being single while she works on her dream career. But Brenda's nagging finally sends her over the edge and she gives in, just to have a moment of peace. She figures Dan's friend won't agree to a date, because he's been saying no this whole time, too. To her dismay, he changes his mind and says yes to one date. True to her word, she goes on the date, only to be just as disappointed as she expected. Should she give him a second chance, or are the odds against her that she'll ever find someone who doesn't act like a grown child?

Then, one night, my life forever changed when I allowed a door to open and gave Josie something I said I'd never give--my ticker. Credit for cover: selfpubbookcovers.com/AKcoverdesignComplete

Dakotas feelings grow more and more everytime she sees Jackson. The real question though is does Jacksons feelings grow for Dakota as well? ***********This book is kind of like a spin off from College mom-to-be. You do not HAVE to read College mom-to-be first to understand this book because it has it's own story line. It's basically just the characters because the story is from the daughter's point of view now. If you DO plan to read College mom-to-be I would suggest reading that first though because it does give stuff away from that book. Anyways, hope you enjoy! Thanks for reading!*********Complete

The rodeo was supposed to be his escape, a place where he could still breathe, but even the arena can't hide the truth: Tristan is living someone else's dream, not his own. Loneliness and disappointment push him into dangerous choices. An affair with an older woman shows him the kind of warmth and passion he's been missing, but it's not enough to heal the emptiness inside him. Then a flood in Arizona strands him in a hotel with Adrian-a woman who stirs something deeper than desire. With her, Tristan glimpses the kind of love and future he's always longed for, but never believed he deserved. Now, he's standing at a crossroads. To claim the life he wants, Tristan must face the hardest truths of all: breaking free from a marriage that's breaking him, letting go of past mistakes, and daring to fight for a second chance at happiness.
