Her childhood friends are all marrying, or happily involved; but Chloe...she doesn't let any guy, even Brett, break through her barrier.
Will it take the one person she never thought she could forgive to finally unlock her heart. Can he help her fall head over heels in love? Chloe must realize it’s not the love that kills, it’s the absence of love that makes us bitter, and ultimately destroys us?

Excerpt
I was on the
phone with my Aunt Ronnie, after finally returning her tenth call. I guess I
should have called her to let her know I left for California a few weeks
earlier than planned. She was actually worried for me. Evidently she had
finally texted Maura and knew I was still alive. So needless to say, I got an
ear full. As I was turning around I ran smack dab into a hard chest knocking a
drink all down the front of my dress.
“Shit! Watch
where you’re going why don’t…” Damn it, John’s blue eyes were staring right in
mine. I couldn’t move. I let out a deep breath and pushed past him.
“Hey!” John
called out to me and grabbed a hold of my arm. “I’m sorry Chloe, are you okay?”
He asked me softly, looking up and down my dress at the spilled beer.
“I’m fine!” I
tilted my chin up. “Just…watch where you’re going from now on, why don’t cha!?”
I bit back at him.
He still didn’t
let go of my arm. I shot my eyes to the offending hand holding me captive.
“I’ve been hoping to talk with you. I never got a good chance to apologize for
what happened between Reese and me last summer…”
“Huh, you mean
what backstabbing bullshit you pulled on her? I don’t really think there’s
anything to talk about. You screwed up, that’s what you did John.” I was
getting ready to start walking off again when John stepped in front of me.
“Yeah, I did, badly too. Anyway, I turned into the
person I thought I never would…” John got a dark, distant look on his face. “I
turned into my father. And for that, I’m so sorry. I’m sorry I put all of you
through that.
