A love worth waiting for
Walking in her sisters’ successful footsteps is a tough act to follow. But Summer Dupree has high hopes for the new Bare Sophistication lingerie boutique slated for a grand opening in Miami. Then she spies a familiar face. Up-and-coming fashion photographer Aiden Chase brings back cherished—and painful—memories. And now her childhood confidant and fiercest protector is determined to take their former relationship to a new intimate level.
In the magic city to pursue his dreams, Aiden isn’t letting Summer slip away again. He can’t change the past—or events that altered his best friend’s life forever. But he’s ready to create a future together. Even when an unexpected threat resurfaces, Aiden won’t give up this time without a fight. Can he turn his long-simmering passion for Summer into a love story for the ages?
“Are you going to keep laughing?”
“I’m sorry.” She fanned herself. “Okay, I’m ready. But you can’t expect me not to laugh when you get so engrossed in playing Leonardo.”
She walked over to the chair in the corner of the room to use it as a platform to lean against so she could pretend it was the edge of the ship.
She rolled her neck and did a little hop mimicking Aiden when he was preparing to act out a scene. “Okay, let’s do this.” She leaned against the chair as she glanced behind her to view the scene on the television.
“I changed my mind,” he said from behind her. “How about I pretend to be myself instead?”
When did he get so close?
His breath fanned the side of her neck. “Don’t come any closer,” she said, mimicking the scene. “I mean it. I’ll let go.”
“No you won’t,” he whispered in her ear. “I know you, Summer. You can’t let go and neither can I.”
She sucked in a deep breath at his nearness. “That’s not part of the scene.”
“I know.” He moved to whisper in her other ear. “I’m done acting. Done pretending. At least for tonight. You were right. We’re too old to play games.”
When I was initially creating the Dupree sisters, Summer was the sister I was ready to write about first. Winter, Autumn and Summer are each unique in their own way, but Summer proves that sometimes you have to take a deeper look to understand what someone is going through.
I experienced a range of emotions while writing Summer and Aiden’s story. I laughed. I cried. I jumped for joy after writing some scenes, while breathing a sigh of relief for others. I’m a huge fan of friends-turned-to-lovers story lines, so I knew Aiden would be perfect for Summer. They both have experienced disappointments and endured setbacks that have altered their friendship.
Danni’s story is next and will release in spring 2017. I can’t wait for readers to meet the real Danni Allison. Be prepared for a few surprises you won’t see coming!
Much love,
Sherelle

To my Godmother, who is also my aunt Michelle, for being an example of what it means to be a strong, wise and proud woman. Throughout my life, I’ve watched you in admiration as you overcame any obstacle that life threw your way. Instead of letting obstacles define you, you used that hurdle as a platform to learn from it and walk away with your head held high and a smile on your face. I love the way you enjoy life and the fact that you are always true to your character, never apologizing for being you. What you see is what you get and through you, I learned that being myself is the best person I can be. When I see you, I see an amazing and beautiful woman with a kind heart, infectious spirit and a candid personality that you can’t help but love. I feel so blessed to have you in my life and I appreciate you more than you know!
To my uncle Ricky—my favorite uncle and the one I can always count on to be there for me. When someone asks me where I developed my love for traveling, I tell them hands down it’s because you allowed your nieces to accompany you and your family on trips, giving us an opportunity to explore the world at a young age. You’re always there for every member of the family and you’re a constant support system to all of us. Being a form of strength and power is something that just comes naturally to you. You love with your whole heart and as a little girl, I used to mirror how you acted because I wanted to be just like my uncle. Thank you for always being a solid rock in my life! I’m not quite sure where I would be without your love and support.
To my aunt Kathy—the aunt who never fails to bring a smile to my face! Growing up, you were always the aunt who I loved to visit. I spent more nights at your house than I can count. Now that I’m an adult, I can honestly say that you’re still the aunt I love to talk to when I need a motivating boost or encouraging words. Sometimes, I’m not even sure how you know that I need to hear from you, but it never СКАЧАТЬ
