How would you spend the last summer of your life?
Still reeling from a bitter divorce, Kristen Carrington is just starting to move forward with her life when she is diagnosed with an incurable form of heart disease. Her outlook is bleak. Unless she receives a heart transplant very soon, the doctors say she will be dead within the year.
But Kristen’s a survivor, and has never been one to sit around and bathe in self-pity. Against her doctor’s advice, and with summer vacation fast approaching, she packs- up her two teenage daughters, Alison and Emily. They drive to an old family beach house on the shores of Lake Michigan, in the tiny tourist hamlet of Sunset Cove.
Recently feeling the emotional detachment that all mothers of teenagers experience at one time or another, it’s here where Kristen hopes to reconnect with her girls while building memories that will linger long after she is gone. But even the best laid plans are oftentimes peppered with glitches, and things turn rocky as soon as they arrive in Sunset Cove.
Neglected for years, the beach house is in a ramshackle state of disrepair. The paint is peeling, and the shutters are hanging precariously off the windows. To make things worse, there is no cable TV, no internet, and only sporadic cell service. Wondering how they will survive without modern conveniences, Alison and Emily want to turn around and head back home. For a short time, even Kristen wonders if coming here was a mistake. Still, she remains strong to her beliefs, and they settle-in for what promises to be a long three months.
And there, over one unforgettable summer, Kristen and her girls embark on an emotional journey that will raise them to the heights of love, forgiveness, and self-discovery, as well as plunging them into the depths of heartache and despair. Working together, they eventually reconnect as a family, and Kristen learns to love again. $0.99 on Kindle.

Jack
In my perfect world, it would always be winter and never Christmas.
I despise the holiday. I hate carols, shopping, and pretending to be a perfect family.
I walked away from my family, or rather they walked away from me.
My heart is like ice—
See it creeping up the walls.
Oh, wait, no, that’s royal icing.
I never should have allowed the Great Christmas Bake-Off to film in my tower.
And I never ever should have agreed to be a judge.
Chloe

Alex Smith; Billionaire Philanthropist
I was known for making money and then giving some of it away. I had enough, too much even. Too much money, women and cars, considering I didn’t drive most of the time. It was a perfect life on the outside, but I was holding some parts of it together with a thin piece of string.
In walked Betty Montae. I wasn’t even looking, but she quickly got my attention.
Poaching her from a business partner, but I didn’t need an assistant, I needed a nanny. Betty had a special touch and she was perfect for the job.
Then something changed. Her mousy get-up was blown when I saw her out at a party. The way I looked at her Betty permanently changed after that.
It was all in front of me and I hadn’t even seen it. I hadn’t seen the seduction in the demure. The need that she was afraid to show and hid so well.
It didn’t matter though. I could see compliance in her eyes and lust in her trembling body. I was paying attention now. $0.99 on Kindle.
