THE EYES OF LOVE
BY
ANGELINA ROSE
BLURB:
After a
tragic loss five years ago, Sally Overby becomes an Attorney in Atlanta. She
convinces herself that all she'll ever need again is her young son, David, and
her life as an attorney. Until one day, Colin Dean barges back into her life
and promptly blows her safe world apart, driving her crazy as only a guy she'd
had a "school girl crush" on can.
Sally is
wary to love deeply. Only, with every loving look Colin gives her plus every
sweet kiss, as the attraction between them sparks, she can’t help but wonder if
she’s met the one she should be with. And although Colin didn’t realize his
life was going to change so quickly, amazingly, he isn’t the least bit
interested in fighting that change. Instead, he’s gearing up for a different
fight altogether. The one for Sally’s heart.
Will
Colin be able to convince her that's it safe to love him... and that forever
isn't really out of reach?
The Eyes
of Love is a novella… so you can enjoy it in just one day!
Except: The Eyes of Love
A
hush fell over the room for a moment as Stephanie appeared with Jazz trailing
behind her. She was wearing a skin tight black dress with stiletto heels which
was typical Stephanie fashion. She wanted nothing more than to be the center of
attention like she always had been.
Without
missing a beat, Stephanie walked straight over to Colin. Sally was shocked.
"Hello,
Colin..." she purred as she ignored Sally completely. "You look sexy
tonight, as always." She smiled seductively as Colin looked away.
"Who's your friend?"
"None
of your business, Steph. Leave me alone."
"Oohhh....
Did I touch a nerve, sweetie?" she asked as she reached out to touch his
chest.
"Don't
touch me, Stephanie. I'm warning you. Why don't you go back to Jazz?"
"Oh.
Jazz. Boring..." she sang. "We're not together anymore, just so you
know..." she whispered in a husky voice. Colin held onto Sally's hand for
dear life. She had to do something.
"Stephanie,
don't you remember me?" she asked grinning from ear to ear as she slid
into Colin's side. He put his arm around her and stared down in shock at what
she was about to say.
"I
don't know you," Stephanie said looking her up and down.
"Wow.
Age is really doing a number on your brain," Sally said.
"Who
are you?" Stephanie snapped. Jazz stood a few feet back obviously trying
to hear the conversation.
"I'm your worst nightmare,"
Sally growled as she came almost nose to nose with Stephanie, her attorney
public speaking skills getting ready to display themselves. She pulled the name
tag from her purse without breaking eye contact and held it up. "You see,
I'm the nerd that you and your cronies bullied through high school."
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Angelina Rose
has wanted to write ever since she could hold a pencil. The first daughter of
immigrant parents, Angelina had her head buried in books, lost in a world of
heroes, heroines and exotic places.
It was a shocking experience that jump-started Angelina's author career.
"I awoke in the ICU... I had been unconscious for several days," Angelina says.
In 2010, Angelina had a long stint in hospital following her involvement in a motor vehicle accident: the longest time off work (as a Registered Nurse), she'd ever had in her life!
It was then she took up pen and paper and started to write again, just as she had done when she was a child. She wrote four short fiction stories for young adults, entered them in several competitions, and managed to win three first prizes!
After happily dipping her toes into writing those short fiction stories for young adults, Angelina has now authored four books in a new "Mill Creek Crossing Romance" series... contemporary romance intended for adults.
The "Starting Over Series" is another contemporary romance series she wrote about a subject she knows well... nurses and their love life. At a recent reunion of her graduating class, she could not help but notice how the same girls would group together and laugh, chat, and even shed some tears over their lives since graduating. Many of the girls had divorced... so Angelina thought "what if a group of the nurses came up with a plan to meet in two years and have a new love story to share?" Then the first story in the series was born.
There is always a story running around in her head. A man with thick dark hair, gray-blue eyes, with an engaging smile and a quick wit... or a girl crying over a broken relationship. She finds herself talking to these characters during her day: when she's doing dishes, or bathing babies at the hospital. These characters crop up on days at the beach or on walks through the neighborhood. This is how the stories start to grow.
Angelina's mother was an author, so Angelina grew up with a love of words and stories. If she wasn't writing a short story about something that took her fancy, her head was buried in books... reading, reading, reading, as her brother constantly told her...
When she's not spending time with her goodlooking man, or quality time with her laptop, she's working at the hospital, hanging out with her family and friends, or walking her two dogs around the neighborhood. Angelina spends as much time as she can traveling, then coming home and including some of those adventures in her stories.
Angelina really loves to hear from her readers and she invites you to connect with her on Facebook as she interacts daily with her readers there!
