Synopsis
“There is nothing
worse than pretending that you don’t care about something, when that is all you
can think about.”
Harper Graham wears a mask, and not the pamper kind. She conceals her pain with shoes, shots, and lots of sex. But while her life appears fantastic to most, Harper herself knows that the most important thing in life is not financial stability, but emotional. Having been let down by her absent father for most of her life, Harper chooses to keep the men in her life at arms length. Well, that was until Kyler Morgan.
Kyler Morgan has been successful at nearly everything in his life … nearly. Traveling the country with the band Down Glory Road, Kyler has had time to reflect upon his life and in particular his relationship with feisty, drop-dead gorgeous realtor, Harper. Realizing that she is the woman of his dreams, Kyler resolves to win back Harper, and prove to her that she is, and always has been, enough.
But the path to true love rarely runs smoothly, and when their journey takes a number of twists and turns, will Harper and Kyler manage to hold tight, or fall by the wayside?

Review
Shelly rates this book 5 stars.
Have I ever told you how much I LOVE STACY BOREL'S WRITING???? Well...if I haven't let me inform you, STACY BOREL ROCKS!!! Her first book, Ever Enough, was one of my top five favorite books I've ever read! Always Enough, hold the same honor!
Harper Graham is an amazing woman. She is strong willed, isn't afraid to speak her mind, and is an amazing friend to Emilyn. She thinks the most important things to her are her business, her best friend, shoes, shots, and sex....lots and lots of sex. However, its ALWAYS the no string attached kind, until she takes a chance on the sexilious Kyler Morgan.
Kyler is on cloud nine! He is living the dream, traveling the US with his band Down Town Glory! You would think he'd live the rocker lifestyle and have a different girl, or two, in his bed every night, but you would be wrong. Kyler has found the love of his life, and she wants nothing to do with him.
Kyler's mission is to get Harper to spend some time with him, and see if he can win her over. He does this by convincing her to spend the week with him alone in NYC. Giving into her lust, Harper sets out to see if there is anything more to her feelings for Kyler besides lust.
It's a bumpy road they travel, and at the end do they find love at the end? Will Kyler prove to Harper that she will ALWAYS be ENOUGH??? Read this gem and find out!! ~Shelly

Excerpt
I walked as far
away from him as I could and sat on the unmade bed. Pinning him with a glare I
asked, “To what do I owe the pleasure, traitor?”
“Traitor?” He actually looked shocked.
“Well, I could actually come up with a
few other choice words. In fact maybe it’s a good thing that you came here.
It’ll save me the trip of finding you.” I brought the cup to my mouth and took
a slow sip.
His mouth quirked up in a slow, sexy
grin. “You were coming to look for me?”
I leveled a glare at him. “I know what
you did, and you have some serious explaining and groveling to do.”
“And what is it you think I did?”
“Don’t play games with me, Kyler. You
told Em everything.”
He shrugged.
“And?”
I was getting more
and more pissed off by his nonchalance and ‘whatever’ attitude.
“What was your reasoning? Besides you thinking
that if you told my best friend everything maybe I would see the error of my
ways and come back to you?”
The smirk that was on his face slowly
faded into a frown.
“I never assumed anything. In fact, I’d
have to be the dumbest man on earth to assume anything when it comes to you.”
What did he mean by that? Before I got a
chance to think more about it, he started to stalk slowly toward me. With every
step, my heartbeat picked up. His gaze was unyielding and I felt my anger going
away, and desire mixed with nervousness crept in. I wanted to pinch myself to
remind me why I was angry, and to hold on to that anger. It was the only
emotion I wanted to feel right now. Lust was an unwelcome sensation, and I
hated that I felt nervous about his advancement.
“What are you doing?” I asked, trying to
keep my voice steady.
“I’m going to prove to you that I don’t
assume things…I know things.”

Synopsis
What happens when
the man you thought was the one, ends up being the one that got away?
When Finley breaks
her heart on graduation night, eighteen year old Emilyn is left alone to pick
up the pieces of her life. After muddling through the next ten years-including
immersing herself in a lifeless marriage-she is brought to her knees when she encounters
Finley at her high school reunion. Long ago buried emotions and feelings bubble
to the surface and when Finley kisses her, Emilyn flees the scene. Arriving
home to find her husband in the arms of another woman, Emilyn is forced to
return to her hometown and start again. But is it possible to start afresh when
the past just won’t seem to let you go?
Finley has spent
the ten years since high school focused on his career. As a songwriter, he has
never had a problem getting women. But when he realizes that the woman he let
go a decade ago could be his happy ever after, he decides to do whatever it
takes to get her back. But are some hurdles too great to overcome?
