Nodding again, I couldn’t help but smile that he’d just proposed, and no words were even spoken.
Bensen didn’t express his love through words very often. Words didn’t mean nearly as much as the actions.
We stared at each other for a long moment, watching, when he leaned in to kiss me. With his chest pressed to mine, I could feel my heart beating against his as one.
“I love you, pretty girl.”
I’d always had his summers, but now I finally had Bensen Cole’s fall, winter, and spring.
The End …
but is the end ever really the end?
Coming soon …
After the Summer: A Memory of Her
You remembered certain memories for a reason. Some memories you forgot for a reason.
When you lied, you create lies, manufactured memories that weren’t true.
You were breaking hearts by living your lie.
Then there were the memories you made and wrote down in fear you’d forget them.
There was a memory I never wanted to forget.

“Southern girls are God’s gift to the entire male population. There is absolutely no woman finer than one raised below the Mason-Dixon line, and once you go Southern may the good Lord help you—you never go back.”

The boy – These past few months, while writing this book, my fairytale nearly ended. It’s a scary thing when you see a loved one almost taken from you and even scarier when they’re a part of you. Here’s to our own happily ever after and living proof dreams do come true.
Honey girl –Thank you for providing me with inspiration. I love you.
And to my family and friends who stand by me no matter what, thank you. I know I don’t have a lot of time these days, but just know that you are in my heart.
Madison – Thank you for being there for me when I needed someone, even if it was just a daily text to check on me through a very hard time. It meant the world to me.
Kari, Laura, and Judie – My bestie hooker hood. Thank you girls for your shit storms.
Shanna, Barb, and Heather – Thank you so much for taking the first look at this book and giving me feedback. Couldn’t have done it without you.
The Puck Bunnies, The Pit Lizards, The Pro Hoes, The Gearheads, and The Road Heads—love all you girls. My morning always starts looking at your posts in those groups, whether it be someone meeting their favorite driver or a steamy hockey player to drool over, I love reading everything that draws you into my stories. Again, you’re what matters.
And finally, the bloggers. There are so many now it’d be hard to list them all, but they really are what keeps authors like me writing. Thank you girls.
