Synopsis
After nearly a year and a half of grieving the loss of her husband, twenty-seven year old Alexa Sullivan
Tate is headed back to her hometown after a decade of being away. She has no idea her high school
crush, Jace McAllister, the guy who stole her heart the same night that he broke it, is more than ready to
pick up the pieces.
Jace has spent the last ten years in the Army defusing bomb after bomb, trying to forget the girl who
ignited all his passions. Little does he know that the spark still exists.
Ten years ago they had smoldering chemistry, but the spark between them now might light a fuse
that leads to an explosion even Jace can't stop. Not that he wants to. If only Alexa can get past her guilt
and trust her heart again.
But how do you put it all on the line when you've already lost everything once before?
*While this is a series, each book will be standalone
At one point I see her eyeing the tattoo on my forearm and before I know it her fingers graze over the italic words and the jagged, raised scar that underlines them as she reads aloud to herself. “Vulneratus non victus. What does it mean?”
I begin to tell her about the time when a roadside IED hit the Humvee in front of mine. My left arm
had been hanging out the window and a piece of shrapnel tore into it. I had a four inch gash that had
required forty-two stitches, but other than that I’d been fine.
“It’s Latin for ‘wounded, but not conquered.’ We were fortunate to have not had any bad injuries, so
when we got back the guys and I all went and got this tattoo to commemorate that those bastards tried,
but failed.”
She pales slightly at the mention of my injury, no matter how minor, so I wrack my brain trying to find a
way to change the conversation into something much lighter, even though her fingers trailing over the
words on my arm are making my skin tingle, bringing all kinds of erotic thoughts to mind.
After moving around for much of her life due to being an military brat, Tessa finally settled in Dayton,
Ohio where she lives with her husband, her two cats, and an ever growing book boyfriend shelf (okay,
shelves). Working for the government by day, and writing by night, she couldn't be more excited to
publish her debut novel. Her Kindle is practically glued to her hands, but when she's not reading
or writing, you can find her rooting on the Cincinnati Reds, Bengals, and the Ohio State Buckeyes. She
loves her sports almost as much as she loves her books. Her other obsessions include red wine, hot men,
country music, and all things Grace Potter.
