Him by Carey Heywood (best book reader TXT) 📗

I would save on office space, I could afford to hire someone to take over the travel aspect of my job. In the past I used travel as a way to escape settling down and avoiding relationships. Now that I have Will in my life, I want nothing more than to wake up in his arms every day.

The End…or is it?

Coming Soon

Her

You know her side of the story, now learn his.

"It was useless, I felt branded beneath my skin by a girl who left without even saying goodbye."

When Will Price was assigned a partner for a sixth grade class project he had no idea she would become his best friend. She eventually became so much more, and then, one day left with no explanation. Floundering without her, what does Will do during their time apart? And now that she's back home what will he do to make her his again?

Acknowledgements

First and foremost to my readers, thank you for taking the time to read something I wrote.

The idea for this book started on a plane ride to Tampa Florida. It was early and our flight was super turbulent because of all this random wind up and down the east coast. It would have been a miserable flight if it wasn’t for Kelli Rae. We clicked and talked nonstop the entire flight (probably annoying the crap out of everyone around us!). We shared our life stories and I am blessed to now call her my friend. Our conversations over rekindling old flames inspired me to write this book. To go from being the person sitting next to me on a plane to one of my biggest supporters, thank you so much. Muah Kelli!

My Betas, ohmygod my betas, Amy Surrey, Kristy Jamieson, Judy Greco, Elly Ruzgal, Lisa VanArsdale, Kate Dixon, Jenny Lopez, Angelique Miller, and Vanessa Brown (aka eagle eye). You guys mean so much to me and everyday make me a better writer.

Summary

HIM

Sarah Miller hasn’t been home in seven years. She thought she could stay away forever. If it wasn’t for her big brother's wedding, that is. Part of her even feels silly for staying away this long. It's not like anyone even knew what happened. Well, except for him.

That guy. The one she compared all others to. The one who set the bar so high no other guy after him could even compete. The one who made her feel like anything was possible. The one she thought she would never be good enough for. The one she spent the last seven years trying to forget.

All she needs to do is make it through the next week without running into him.

I'd love to hear from you!
