About this listen
Parker Chadwick (the third) fled Boston on a football scholarship since his parents would only pay for him to attend an Ivy League school and he wanted to play at a state one. He felt good leaving his pretentious family, fake friends, and false life behind him. The 10-year class reunion wasn’t the reason he returned home, though. His mother’s illness, his father’s funeral, and a potential coaching job at the private school were life events all vying for his time and attention. He had to admit there was one person he was curious about.
Dixie Sweeting, better known as Sugar, wasn’t running from her past anymore. In fact, she was ready to walk into that class reunion and prove that even the wildest of children could grow up to be responsible adults. No one really understood her back then, but she had dealt with her demons. All of them, but one. The man who just slid into the booth seat across from her wearing a smile as big as Texas.

Years ago, Annabelle Montgomery married not for love, but for a promise of hope. When she lost him weeks later, she told herself she never needed those sentiments again.

Story
The day I showed up to Dax Moody’s sprawling home, I had no idea what was coming. As a traveling massage therapist, I was used to entering the houses of strangers. But this assignment was different from any before it. From the outside, I’d correctly assumed the owner was rich. What I didn’t realize was that he would be younger than I’d imagined, single, stunningly gorgeous, and mysterious.

The one that got away. Every girl has one, right? Mine was a charming, British aristocrat who turned my world upside down one summer. From the moment I first spotted Leo in the distance through my binoculars, I’d been captivated. I certainly never expected to find a man showering outside of the property across the bay in his birthday suit.

Story
I've always been a wild child and my own worst enemy. Ditched by my best friend at a biker bar. A broken Jeep in a new town with no one to call. What else could possibly go wrong? I'm Makenna Dixon, not a damsel in distress. My parents taught me how to survive on my own. But a handsome stranger thinks he'll be my saving grace. A challenge leads to a lip lock I can't quite forget.

What happens when a woman falls in love with her stalker? I'm not the type of woman who actually inspires passion in any guy, much less one who makes it a habit to watch me because he's obsessed. I'm a curvy, plain Jane. I'm an educated geek who would rather have my nose in a computer instead of a fashion magazine. But none of those things seem to matter to Stalker. He sees something in me that I don't see in myself, and I don't know why. I'm terrified, yet I'm inexplicably intrigued.

Beautiful, penniless American girl meets handsome, wealthy Scotsman. Sounds like the beginning of a fairy-tale romance? It's not. This story begins with a contract. And an exchange of money. A lot of money. An angel perches nervously on one shoulder. A devil lounges smugly on my other. And even that dark little bastard is leery of what I'm doing.

Dane is a former SEAL turned CEO. Oh, how I wish CEOs weren’t that irresistible. As a self-made woman who never used her daddy’s resources, I have a ton of pride. I would never risk my career by sleeping with my boss. I would never destroy my reputation by falling into bed with my dad’s best friend. Or so I thought. Yes, I did those exact things but that’s not even the worst part. I’ve got a bigger problem to deal with. Not one but two problems. I’m having his twins, and I’m effectively panicking. Am I about to lose my heart, my career, and my sanity all at once?

Sexy, spot on, short story.
This is a short story about how two people who met by accident and became friend never quite was at the right place during their life to say what was in their hearts and heads. I enjoyed this and had read the story on e-book before listening to it. It is true because how many times do we feel something for someone, but our own insecurities and fear keeps us from telling someone.

I recommend this story your heart will thank you
Though they are from different sides of the tracks Parker and Dixie find peace in each others arms. But can it ever be more? This book may only be 43 pages but the author packs one heck of a story into them. I recommend this story your heart will thank you.
