I never thought
that, at 40, this would be my life. Mourning the loss of the man I vowed to
love for life was hard enough. Online dating, starting a business, and falling
in love was never the plan.
Victoria Bennett
has been blessed with a loving husband, a wonderful son and amazing friends.
Always the organized planner, Victoria was thrown life's curve ball
when she found herself a widow and single mom before 40. After mourning the
loss of her husband and rejoining her friends and family in her once simple
life, Victoria finds herself venturing into the world of online dating with
little success.
After hanging up
her keyboard and focusing on new experiences and hobbies, Victoria is as
surprised as everyone else when her favorite pastime leads to a new career and
passion for life. When a friendship turns to romance, her life is once again
thrown for a loop. Like everything new in her life she takes on the
relationship with gusto, and a series of mishaps.
Victoria soon
learns that sometimes the life you've planned isn't the life
you lead. It is still your life, just your life
rewritten.
“I’m
sorry, what?”
I had to have heard
him wrong, right? There is no way this guy is serious. And yet, by the look on
his face, I’m pretty sure he
is.
This is the worst
date ever.
“I said I
would love to take you back to your house and pleasure your feet,” he
says with more than a hint of
disdain.
Well, hell.
I had heard him correctly. He
said pleasure and feet.
Together. On purpose. Oh, I’m going to pleasure my feet all right, by
sticking my stiletto up his ass. This guy is nuts if he thinks I’m
taking him back to my house so he can get his rocks off by messing with my
feet. I get it; I am wearing some pretty hot shoes. I thought they were
ridiculous at first, but my sister, Charlotte, insisted they were a must have
for my new life. I still don’t know why I need a new life, but I
listened, and if I’m completely honest, I love them. Peep-toe,
leopard-print, five-inch stilettos that make me feel like I can hold my own in
this crazy world. They give me the power I need for moments like this.
“You
know, Phillip, I don’t think I’m really there.”
I’m not
likely to ever actually be there. Sadly for Phillip, I lack a poker face and
imagine my eyes have fluttered a minimum of ten times while I purse my lips and
inhale through my nose and out through my
mouth.
Looking across the
table, I am greeted with a furrowed brow and a look I can’t quite put
my finger on, but I know it isn’t welcoming. Shit. I’d
hoped to at least leave this date with a friend.
Andrea Johnston
spent her childhood with her nose in a book and a pen to paper. An avid people
watcher, her mind is full of stories that yearn to be told. A fan of
angsty romance with a happy ending, super sexy erotica and a good
mystery, Andrea can always be found with her Kindle nearby fully
charged.
Andrea lives in
Idaho with her family and two dogs. When she isn’t spending
time with her partner in crime aka her husband, she can be
found binge watching all things Bravo and enjoying a cocktail. Nothing makes
her happier than the laughter of her children, a good book, her feet in the
water, and cocktail in hand all at the same
time.
