Forever is a heartbeat away . . .Kerris Moreton knows how to make things work. Bounced from foster home to foster home as a kid, she adapted; when opportunity arose, she thrived. Now, about to open her own business and accept a marriage proposal, Kerris is ready to build the life she’s always wanted. The only thing missing? A passionate connection with her would-be fiancé, Cam. Kerris wants to believe that sparks are overrated-until Walsh Bennett lights her up like the Fourth of July.
. . . but what about love?
As one of the East Coast’s most eligible bachelors, Walsh enjoys financial independence, fulfilling work with his family’s nonprofit, and plenty of female attention. But lately he’s been distracted by the one woman he can’t have. Lovely to look at and even sweeter to know, Kerris is the soul mate Walsh never thought he would find. The problem is, his best friend found her first . . .
Release Date: October 17, 2014
Right or wrong, Kerris made her choice. She chose Cam, and she’s not a girl who sways or strays. But the feelings, the connection, the chemistry between her and Walsh – it wont go away. And now that Cam has seen for himself how deep it goes, everything is in ruins–the lifelong friendship between Walsh and Cam and maybe, her marriage, too. But sometimes the heart just doesn’t know when to quit. If there’s a way to make things right on all fronts, Kerris will find it, no matter what it costs her. Her heart tells her to fight to have it all. And the heart that fights loves forever and for always.
There were several signs that Kennedy Ryan would be a writer, but making up stories with a mop as her long-haired heroine while the other kids played kick ball may have been the most telling. After graduating with her journalism degree from UNC-Chapel Hill (GO, HEELS!), she found various means of gainful employment having absolutely nothing to do with said degree, but knew she would circle back to writing, in some form or fashion. Some day. After years of working and writing for non-profit organizations, she finally returned to her first love – telling stories. Her debut novel, When You Are Mine, the first of The Bennett’s trilogy, releases through Grand Central’s Forever Yours imprint in June 2014.
Kennedy writes contemporary romance and women’s fiction. She always gives her characters their happily ever after, but loves to make them work for it! It’s a long road to love, so sit back and enjoy the ride.
In an alternative universe and under her government name Tina Dula, she is wife to the love of her life, mom to to her son, and a friend to those living with autism through her foundation Myles-A-Part.
