Synopsis:
Dying . . .
Dead . . .
Deceased . . .
It doesn’t matter how many times I say it or how
many different names I give it, it still means the same thing. One of these days I’ll be
nothing but a passing memory, a familiar face in a forgotten photo. But there's three
things I need before this life of mine ends . . .
I need to tell him I love him more than life
itself.
I need to feel the strength of his arms wrapped
around me just one more night.
Most of all, I need him to forgive me.
Eight years ago I broke the heart of the only man
I’ve ever loved and today I’m moving home in hopes that he’ll let me put it back
together. I’m not sure how many breaths I have left, but I’ll use each and every last
one fighting for what I destroyed.
My name is Laney Jacobs and this is my
journey.

Excerpt:
My eyes catch on a formation and I sit up, squinting,
trying to figure out if I found it. I look at Levi and smile. “There, it’s right there.”
Closing one eye—because everyone knows that helps you see better—I point to the
stars and trace my finger around Corona Borealis.
“No way.” Levi sits up and leans toward me
so the sides of our heads are touching. “Well, I’ll be damned.” We both turn to look at
each other at the same time and our noses nearly touch. His smile slowly fades as his
eyes drop to my mouth. The air around us grows thick and my heart hammers inside
my chest. I want so badly to grab the back of his neck and yank him to me, but I
refrain, knowing this is a step that he needs to take.
To my dismay, he clears his throat and backs up,
putting space between the two of us. “Um … so … what do you want?”
“What do you mean, what do I want?” I ask,
still too caught up in the moment to fully comprehend what he’s talking
about.
“You won. So you get to pick your
prize.”
“Hmmm.” I flop back down on the ground
and tap my bottom lip with my finger. What do I want? “Nothing. I don’t want
anything.” I look to the sky and then back to Levi. He lowers himself to the ground
and looks over at me.
“Nothing?”
“Nope. This is perfect.” Our eyes stay
locked for several seconds, but the connection is too intense and I have to look away
or I’ll physically melt. “I’m just glad we got to spend some time together, just you
and me. It’s been really nice, Levi. So this is it. You’ve already given me what I want.”
I take a deep satisfying breath, chancing a quick glance back at him. He’s grinning
from ear to ear, and I swear that his smile alone could light up the darkest of nights.
His features have softened, his eyes are sparkling with happiness, and I’m glad it’s
directed at me.
“Okay.” His warm voice evaporates into the
evening air and I sigh, knowing that right now, in this very second, everything has
changed. We seem to have found our footing again and some sort of peace, and I can
only hope that it will grow from here.

Louis, MO. She is entertained daily by her extraordinary husband, who will forever

been washed and tucked into bed, you can find her typing away furiously on her
computer. She has a love for alpha-males, brownies, reading, tattoos, sunglasses, and
happy endings…and not particularly in that order.
