Everything She Thought

Laney Melvin (Mel Cross as the world knows her), bestselling author, lost everything in a matter of seconds. Her whole life, her whole world was shattered. She locked herself away from life, away from people for nearly three years. As she reenters the world that made her a household name, she not only keeps her guard up, but she is keeping her heart locked up also.
Karl Hager (Aka Jon Anders) never thought he would be a date for hire. Completely disgusted with himself, he finds his way into a restaurant after yet another raunchy date, only to have his entire life changed. His dreams are altered by just a look across a room in a random hotel five hours from home.
A woman whose heart no longer beats.
A man who wants something more out of life.
They now find themselves a step away from the one thing neither of them believes exists.
Love.
