Romance Contemporary

Happily ever after?

When Gabe Vitali escapes to a fresh start in Crystal Point, Australia, the former physician isn't looking for a storybook ending. For the first time he's living in the moment. His new five-year plan does not include serious relationships. But he doesn't anticipate his unavoidable next-door neighbor - and an undeniable attraction.

Bridal consultant Lauren Jakowski wants marriage. She's just sworn off love and sex! To avoid getting burned again, she's looking for safe and forever-after. But they're not Gabe's to give - for reasons he can't share with anyone, least of all this pretty complication.

Gabe and Lauren don't figure on a fairy tale. But fate has other plans.

Great story. I was lucky in that I loved my job.

Helen, your true story is quite inspirational and motivational. Thank you for this contest. :) Best to all those who have entered and if you have a project you haven't finished time to finish it no matter how small or big it is :)

Excellent advice from the motivational speaker. I'm glad he influenced your writing career and the nice older gentleman's life too.

I'd like to read your story featuring a wedding planner and a doctor!

Sounds interesting

This is definitely a book I'd love to read. Thanks for the great giveaway!!

Now THAT was a motivational story. Really resonated with me. Even though I like to think of the glass as half full, I have been guilty of focusing on the negatives too much lately (as I've had some health problems still unresolved).
Thank you! (I obviously would love to read your latest. Thanks for that too.)
(Elaine Seymour 10:35am September 14, 2014)

I enjoyed the blog. Amazing that just a few words can help someone to finish a project. Never know how much just talking to someone helps.
(Vera Wilson 11:07am September 14, 2014)

Thanks for the story and opportunity to win!
