from further pain, but also from further life.Brandon Kuvat gave up on love ten years ago—the year he was set to
become a dad. A wealthy playboy pilot, he still sees plenty of action, but he’s
not the man he once was. Or the man he wishes he could be. The first time he
encounters Jordan, he knows immediately she is different. He also knows hurting
her is inevitable. Still, he can’t stay away, even if it means he’ll have to
settle for a friendship—but only for as long as that can last.
Wounded by a disastrous relationship, Jordan Artesian has put
her whole focus on work, nurturing her dreams of owning her own fashion line.
But though her creativity blooms, the rest of her is still frozen, that is,
until Brandon charms his way into her life. He’s irritating, but
somehow…intriguing. She hates that she finds his charming and challenging
ways attractive. He isn’t supposed to make her feel things she’s given up on
feeling.
For these two, friendship will never be enough—not when she’s what he needs to
heal, and he’s what she needs to feel again. But can they find their way down
the path of friendship to truly love and trust one another, or will they only
destroy each other’s hearts all over again?
Two broken souls who are attracted at first sight. But only end up friends till it’s too much. Jordan is a shy designer wanted to get her designs out there. Brandon is a wealthy man who isn’t feeling the same as he did when started his carefree attitude. An outing for Brandon brings him in contact with Jordan, but she’s different than the others. Will he get her in more ways than one or not at all?

The build of this story was on spot if you’d done it differently it wouldn’t have been the same. Casey I totally couldn’t put this story down once I started. You had me from the beginning straight to the end. Times you had me laughing and others in tears. I could feel both characters feelings because you delivered them well with your words. The story flowed between the characters point of view.

she remembered her dates with Todd. They were always awkward. She was always
the outsider with his smart lawyer friends, and tonight would be the same with
Brandon. She wouldn’t know anyone. This was Brandon’s lifestyle and friends,
and she was just an accessory.

Casey rediscovered her passion for writing and hasn’t stopped writing since.
Her favorite genre is romance with a little angst, which is why she writes
sexy, funny, sweet, and emotional stories that are a bit more in depth, but so
much fun to read.
Casey has a ridiculously short attention span and loves her coffee and tea
without sugar and milk. Apart from reading or writing, she loves to snowboard,
even when she’s catching an edge and face-planting in the snow. She absolutely
loves it!
