Meet Jovie
How do you escape the past when it lurks at every small town corner? That’s what Jovie is trying to figure out as she does her absolute best to move on and sweep those dirty parts of her past under the rug. But you see, it’s not quite so simple when everyone knows: knows your past, knows you’re untouchable, and knows…him.
She could move out of town and make things easier on herself, but why should she be the one to suffer and lose her family and best friend? No, she won’t back down that easily. Jovie decides to stick around because this is her life, her home. Besides, there’s a university in the next town over which always brings in fresh faces, but she’s getting tired of the college scene, or the guys, rather. At least she thought she was over them. Could this tall, mysterious guy that suddenly surfaced be the answer to a new start? Or will he just be another fresh face that fades away once he learns her truth?
Meet Bleu
A new town. A new life. That’s what Bleu was in search of when he came across an advertisement for the perfect bachelor pad, or at least for the type of single guy who wants his solitude and a clean start. He never thought he would retire from the military before he had a gray hair much less move to a town that had a single stoplight. Funny how life changes in the blink of an eye.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
I have always wanted to write a book since I was a child. I had a story that kept looping in my brain, so I thought I might as well give it a shot!
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
My characters are somewhat fictional. I found that I incorporated a bit of myself and other people close to me into my characters.

My body felt lighter than it had ever felt before. Floating. Yeah, I’m definitely floating. Could this be what death feels like? If so, it’s not as bad as I had envisioned. Blackness continued to blanket my core, pulling me closer to the velvety darkness, and I was ready to go with open arms, but something kept tugging me back, trying to center my gravity. A sound in the distance, but I couldn’t decipher the words for they sounded like echoes from another universe.
I wanted to scream back to leave me alone, to let me stay. But the words failed my lips. Then my skin felt a sudden rush of heat, leaving behind the soft pillow I was wrapped in just a moment before. Pressure, so much pressure. Heat continued to pulsate through my veins then radiated to my head. My skull felt like it was on the verge of exploding. My brain screaming in torment. Pain. Unbearable pain. And I realize I’m not dying. No, I am most definitely alive because I know death wouldn’t be so difficult.
