About this listen
“What are we?” she asked.
He ran one hand up and down her back. “I think they call this falling in love.”
Ian McKinney’s wife tried to kill him, and that made up his mind for good. He’s out of the dating game. He has friends, a comfortable job, other things to fill his life.
Then Allison Hoff walks into it. She’s never recovered from the death of her spouse and is now trying to somehow move on. Maybe if she loses a few pounds, builds her self-esteem…
But when she asks him to fill in as her date to the Fourth of July police dance, what seems like a beneficial arrangement to them both proves to be very, very wrong.
A touching romance by best-selling author, Suzanne D. Williams, where love blooms even brighter the second time around.

Every moment with her is ripe with opportunity, and every last idea running through his mind would destroy his brotherly bond with Glenn.
