 Many people dream of their wedding day. Some women I know have planned theirs out before they graduated high school. Getting married adds to the daily stress. Each person brings their own wishes and plans to the relationship. Author Julie Navickas' new release CHASING LOVE is about those months before a wedding as the hero and heroine are handling the stress of the planning. CHASING LOVE is a wonderful romance about two people who want different things but love each other. This emotional story pulls at your heartstrings and has you recalling your own wedding. It's a tale of love and understanding that you won't be able to put down. While CHASING LOVE is a part of the Clumsy Little Hearts Trilogy, it can be read as a standalone. But it's so much better when you read them all. Blurb: Sometimes when the right man finds the right woman, things still aren’t quite right. Can a piece of paper fix it, or ruin it? When Cole Johnson was eight years old, he married Rose Prescott. Never mind that the aisle was made of holiday table runners, she wore an old lace curtain, and her brother performed the ceremony in a musty basement. Twenty-four years later, Cole is more in love than ever and ready to wed Rose for real. This time, it’ll be at an exquisite wedding venue and the minister will know how to read. But that’s not all. He wants to give Rose the life he’s always dreamed of: a big house with a picket fence, twin boys, a family dog, and a rock-solid 401K. But Rose doesn’t seem to want any of it—not even a little. Because it’s not at all the future she covets. In fact, it’s the exact opposite. The thought of a hefty mortgage payment and a mini-van full of children isn’t just suffocating… it’s insufferable. As the wedding approaches, Cole grows uneasy and can’t help but feel like Rose is hiding something. Despite his suspicions, the day of their wedding arrives without a hitch. The question is, how will the day end? Pick up your copy of Chasing Love, the epic conclusion to the Clumsy Little Hearts trilogy. While each story can be read as a standalone, common characters are woven throughout each book. Julie Navickas’ stories leave no shortage of heart-stopping plot twists, competing emotions, and soul-crushing decisions. Get your copy today! EXCERPT Rose laughed and ran alongside him to the front door of their building. She stuffed the key in the lock and twisted the knob. Together, they stumbled upstairs with wet, squeaky shoes. “I’m soaked!” Rose shivered and stepped inside their condo. Tossing her purse on the dining room table, she kicked off her sandals. “I need to change.” “I’ll help.” Cole tailed her footsteps into the bedroom as her laughter echoed down the hall. “You’ll help?” “Mmm-hmm.” Cole ripped off his wet shirt, ready to seize the moment of connection after the last few weeks of confusion. Banking on the stolen giggles and grins they shared in the car, Cole dropped his pants and tossed his sneakers aside. “Come here,” he whispered as thunder boomed overhead. The lights flickered. Rose unbuttoned her sleeveless blouse and threw it on the floor. “And if I don’t?” A growl rumbled in the back of his throat, competing with the brewing storm outside. “Then I’ll come to you.” He stepped closer. Heat blazed through him as she dropped her damp skirt to her ankles. A coy grin touched her lips as she giggled and unclasped her bra, revealing a tattoo on her left breast. BUY LINKS: |
