SYNOPSIS:
Kelsey and Riley spent more time apart then together early
on in their relationship and now that it's repaired he's away for a whole
different reason. Feeling the absence of Riley while he's deployed is taking a
toll on Kelsey. She finds herself crying more often than not and distancing
herself from the people who are there for her the most.
Riley has employed the help of some friends to make Kelsey's
Christmas a special one. Leaving a series of notes and gifts behind to remind her
of the good times they have shared so far, and the ones to come.
Can Kelsey handle one of the happiest holidays being away
from the man who completes her in every way?
Will Kelsey scavenge for the strength she needs to take on
the roll of a military girlfriend or will she crack under the pressure from the
distance?
Only she knows how much she can take….

EXCERPT:
He
nods. “So tell me, did you look in the closet?”
The
reminder of the seashells brings a smile to my face. I lean back against the
doorframe and stretch my legs out in front of me, relaxing. “Who said you
aren’t romantic?” I ask. Reaching into the box, I pick up one of the shells and
hold it up for him to see. “You even went so far as to add little adjectives on
them,” I croon. “You really think all these things about me?”
“That
and so much more,” he says.
I
stare at him on my screen and see the adoration he has for me. It shows in his
eyes, in his smile, in everything he does for me, and I know deep down I am the
luckiest woman in the world.
“How
was your nig…” My words are cut off when a loud explosion sounds through the
speaker of my phone.
Fear
paralyzes me.
“Babe,
I have to go,” Riley rushes, his attention no longer on me but on what’s
happening over there. He turns back to the camera, his eyes wide, and I see the
dread taking hold of him. “I love you, Kelsey. Always remember that,” he says
before another loud bang sounds out and the call disconnects.
The
phone slips from my hand but in my numbness, I don’t recognize it. My heart
beating faster than a herd on the move drowns out any noises around me. The
sound of blood rushing through my body pounds in my ears, and all I can think
about is I didn’t get to tell him I love him back. How will he know? Oh. My.
God. What just happened? Is he okay? Is he alive? I’m pulled from my depressing
thoughts by an incessant ringing sound until I recognize it’s my phone.
Detached from everything, I reach for it only for it to stop and start ringing
all over again.
My
eyes close for a second at the name on the screen and all I can do is pray it’s
not as bad as what my mind is conjuring up right now.
“Hello?”
I whisper.
“They’ve been attacked and it’s
not good,” are the last words I hear before a world of darkness swallows my
vision and takes me under.

SYNOPSIS:
Money ~ power ~ fame
Kelsey
Growing up in the arms of one of the wealthiest families in America, I lived a champagne lifestyle and never wanted for anything.
That life came with stipulations…
1. Marry the man I don’t love.
2. Make my parents proud.
Wrong.
Wrong.
I left my Manolos and fancy apartment behind and fled that life to find out who I really was.
Someone unexpected bulldozed my life.
Riley Jackson
He was the man everyone, including me, wanted, but his future was one I wasn’t sure I wanted to thrust myself back into. And when he chose a career over the family business, his family supported him instead of pushing him away.
My past collided with my future.
I didn’t see it coming. If I had, I would’ve ran far, far away.
My past collided with my future.
I didn’t see it coming. If I had, I would’ve ran far, far away.
Now I’m stuck in the same position I started in two years ago, except this time, it’s not my decision to make.
Loyalty to your family? Loyalty to your own happiness?
Which would you choose?
