Blurb: 

Peyton Steele has everything she ever dreamed of.  A powerful fiancé with political aspirations, a picture-perfect family, and two adorable, fuzzy kitty companions.  Except, maybe she wasn’t dreaming big enough.

 

Karina Knox never pictured her life like this.  She never intended to be a single mom and widow by the end of her twenties.  With a young toddler to juggle and a small business, life seems to never slow down.

 

Unanticipated fast fascination takes over when Peyton comes crashing into Karina’s life.  But when fascination turns to friendship and friendship leads to something else entirely, the two of them must tread carefully to avoid life crashing down around them.

​

Trigger Warnings: This novel contains depictions of domestic violence, including verbal and physical abuse, with very brief mention of sexual assault.  Cheating plays a significant role in the storyline.  There is also recounting of traumatic events, drunk driving, car crashes, grief, and past pregnancy.  Character death (not of a main character) is also included.  Homophobic language is also used.
