Accendo Press - October 2013
BLURB supplied by Author
When 22-year-old Summer Stafford’s parents
split halfway through her senior year at college, Summer’s world is rocked.
Everything she thought she knew—heck, everything she thought she wanted for her
own life—feels like a lie. The truth is love is a risk. And the true kind, the
kind that lasts, might even be a fairy tale.
Reeling from the divorce, Summer derails
her own future by breaking up with her parent-approved boyfriend and giving up
her lifelong plans for a big-city career. She moves back home, business degree
in hand. Dad needs her to fill the gaps her mother left behind; Summer needs to
find who she is outside of the cookie-cutter life that failed so miserably for
her parents.
Ford O’Neal’s future involves one person:
himself. He doesn’t have a permanent address and he definitely doesn’t commit.
To a place or a person. Raised by hippies, he plans just far enough ahead to
secure his next stop, this one landing him at a work-study program at Heritage
Plantation where he can grow his own herbal and medicinal creations.
Summer is gorgeous and smart and fun to be
with, the perfect way to pass five months. It won’t be love—Ford’s got too many
things to accomplish, too many places to go, before he settles down. Yet Summer
pulls him in, challenging him to rethink his own philosophy.
When Ford’s five months are up, each of
them must decide if love is really worth the risk.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Heather
Hildenbrand was born and
raised in a small town in northern Virginia where she was homeschooled through
high school. She now lives in coastal VA, a few miles from the Atlantic Ocean,
with her two adorable children. She works from home, part
time, as a property manager and when she's not furiously pounding at the
keyboard, or staring off into space whilst plotting a new story, she's lying on
the beach, soaking in those delicious, pre-cancerous rays.
Heather
loves Mexican food, hates socks with sandals, and if her house was on fire, the
one thing she'd grab is her DVR player.
