Book excerpt: I'm not one to run...but right now, I need to be anywhere except this podunk town. Marti I'm fleeing from my past. Trying to rise above the drama I left behind. I'm broken-hearted and alone. Hoping I'll find the life and love I crave. And when handsome billionaire boss, Nick Vargas, walks into my life, everything changes. He's bold, charming, and perilously sexy. One look at him and a glass of sweet tea later, I know her heart is in trouble... Big trouble. Nick I'm scarred from the sad loss of an old flame. I've sworn never to put my feelings on the line again. But one touch, and the sight of those curves? The chemistry is undeniable. Will we go our separate ways at the next truck stop? Or can she give me a second chance at love and help me forget my painful past?
