After I Fall
by Amity Hope
Release Date: 12/15/14
Summary from Goodreads:
When EmLynn’s dad loses his battle with
cancer, the last thing she wants is to move across the country to live with her
Mom. Her mom left her dad years ago to start a new, improved family with her
new, improved husband.
When Eric finds himself in the middle of a mess of someone else’s making, the
last thing he wants is to be dumped into the foster care system. He’s spent
most of his life on his own, so he doesn't see the point of having a pretend
family now.
A chance meeting has them both thinking that maybe their new town of Roseville
isn’t so bad. But as they grow closer, an unknown enemy, along with a tangle of
secrets and a web of little white lies, may just be enough to make their
newfound love unravel completely.

After I Fall—Excerpt 3
He tugged at my hand and pulled me into an alcove. It led into a craft shop but it was closed this late in the evening. He pulled me into his arms, then tightened the hold as he drew me close enough to whisper in my ear.
“Can I tell you a secret?” he asked.
“Absolutely.” My hands slid up, gripping his biceps.
“I’ve been wanting to do this for weeks.” He leaned in, his lips pressing gently against mine. It was a short, sweet kiss. A perfect first kiss because it held a promise of more to come.
“I think…I think I like your secrets,” I whispered back.
“Good,” he said as we moved onto the sidewalk. “Because I think I have a few more where that came from.”
A little bit about me...
I live in beautiful northern Minnesota with my two sons, two cats and our
Rottweiler.
Rottweiler.
If I'm not writing, or spending time with my kids, I'm most likely reading.
