Blurb:
ISABELLA NUNEZ owns a computer firm in Brooklyn with her lover JACOB COSTA. Accepting her infertility they have a blue nose pit bull called Justice as their “child” and live simple lives as techy nerds. Isabella’s idyllic life is shattered when several days after her lover’s ex-wife, SIMONE JOHNS, reported death, sends Jacob an email to come save their child, he didn’t know they had.
Exclusive Excerpt:
“Are you hungry?” he asked as he looked over his shoulder. Jacob saw Bella’s brows go up and her smile transformed her face into a mischievous minx. She threw the covers off of her body to reveal a very naked Bella.
“Funny you should ask. I woke up hungry but you had already gone into the shower.” Bella replied.
Jacob cared for Bella. It wasn’t the stuff of fairy tales that she told him about, Jacob didn’t do Prince charming. To Jacob caring meant he would see to her needs, be there when she needed it and protect her. Jacob never claimed he was romantic but he was committed. It hadn’t been enough for Simone but it seemed like Bella would take him as he was. and not hope the change so many women thought happened to men after marriage.
Bella was curvy and about 5’6. She was tall enough for him to find her in a crowd and she had a laugh that was loud and infectious.
Simone’s text message would steal some of her joy and it had to be handled he thought to himself as he dressed for the day.
“It’s time to make the donuts, so you’re going to have to hold out until tonight. If you want food I can take you to the diner on my way to work.” Jacob replied as he picked up his phone and reviewed the text messages again. It was the same. Six messages from new clients, Four messages on updated projects, one unknown text and Simone Johns.
Author Bio and Links:
Being a child of divorce, I have experienced both sides of the American Family. I understand there is a loss to the family unit, that no longer has a father in it. In the face of that loss, I discovered a woman can rise to the occasion and not replace a man but offer her own strength, moral compass and guidance. In this environment a child can grow up feeling loved, accepted and ultimately successful in life.
Those experiences in my formative years have made me more aware of the women around me and the daily feats of resourcefulness and ingenuity that goes unnoticed and unacknowledged by society. My stories highlight societal issues and the ever-changing challenges women face that I've observed during my life.
