Again: A Marriage Redemption Novella by JL Seegars

Jaxon Daniels was supposed to be my forever.

I’ve loved him since I was thirteen years old, and like a foolish little girl, I believed that our love would carry us through everything. Every challenge. Every obstacle. Every heartbreak. But that was before I knew anything about pain and the challenge of overcoming crushing disappointment. Before I knew that loving someone doesn’t always mean you get to have them, sometimes it means you have to let them go.

Now, thanks to my sister marrying his brother at a romantic resort in Mexico, he’s back in my orbit. Making me question the choice I made all those years ago, reminding me of our history every time he looks me in the eye, touching me like I still belong to him, and demanding that I give him another chance.

In my life.
In my bed.
In my heart.

And as tempted as I am to say yes, there’s still a part of me that can’t forget what it was like to let him go, to live with our broken forever haunting me.

I survived losing him once, but I’m not so sure I can do it again.

So, he tried his luck, hopeful that she would give him a chance to take her on a date. But when she only presented the option of being together physically, he jumped at the opportunity and trusted that he could possibly, over time, finesse that into more.

As their physical relationship grows more into an emotional one, and love slowly starts to creep in, Charisse gets scared. She is not ready to give her heart and risk getting hurt again while Germaine is determined to prove to her that he is not like her husband. He wants to show her how a real man loves a woman.

A Walk in the Park by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Audible Original)

Two hearts on the mend and one adorable mutt get a new leash on love in this romantic short story from award-winning author Rebekah Weatherspoon.

Andre Monroe is ready to move on from heartbreak, and the first step is bringing home his rescue pup. He’d bonded instantly with the playful Zeus and was already planning their first adventures. But one thing he definitely hadn’t daydreamed about was Zeus accidentally being promised to someone else – or that he might go home empty-handed and brokenhearted all over again.

Janelle Johnson is not giving up her claim to Zeus. He already has a hold on her heart (and his own Instagram handle). After the year she’d had, she needed this dog. But when she sees the disappointment of the big, burly handsome man who’s clearly just as in love with the dog as she is, she proposes a deal to Andre – for one month they’ll co-parent the dog. How hard could it be?

Both of them agree to the unusual arrangement. Sharing a dog with a complete stranger isn’t quite the walk in the (dog) park they imagined, but as they work together to give Zeus a loving future, their four-legged friend might not be the only one who’s found a happily ever after.
