Here is a short sample from the book:
A slight young woman slammed her car door with infuriating force. Her temper simmered and threatened to bubble. Frustrated, she kicked the tire. It had been the third time in a month her old Jeep had refused to start. She exhaled an exasperated sigh. Her gaze swung to the horizon and her mouth tugged downward with irritation. Thunder rumbled wickedly and loomed in the distance. This sporadic, ominous occurrence was common in Port Darrin during mid-autumn. She loved the season. She loved the storms with their wild winds and lightening. On this day however, not so much.
Twenty-one-year-old, Megan O’Dwyer, stomped to the small garden shed at the rear of her childhood home. She had no choice but to ride the clunky old bicycle that had always been kept inside. Its red paint had dulled with age and rust spotted the once shiny chrome. Its luster, all but faded too. She frowned from the similarities and shrugged with acceptance, as she could relate. At least the tires weren’t flat, she thought.
It had also been a while since she had felt that she shone. Perhaps, a thousand days since she had felt pretty or even beautiful. Stupid things that had been somewhat important to her at one time, didn’t matter anymore. Megan was comfortable with being faded. When everything else seemed difficult and challenging, at least that was easy. She well knew what was important and being a volunteer clothes rack for designer names, wasn’t her cup of tea or mug of beer.

Heart Robber (Lifestyle by Design Book 2) by Miranda P. Charles @MirandaPCharles
Jessa Allen knew she was plain and average. Yes, she was brainy and successful in her career as a senior writer for the popular Lifestyle by Design magazine, but she wasn’t a raving beauty who easily attracted hunky, gorgeous men like Rob Granger even if her well-meaning friends wanted her to believe she was. So when Rob asked her out, she was shocked. A seriously handsome man who had magnetism she couldn’t seem to escape wanted her. That wasn’t something that happened everyday.
Rob Granger was instantly attracted to Jessa Allen. She wasn’t the usual type he went for but there was something alluring about her that drew him like a moth to a flame. But he was a self-confessed playboy who had absolutely no plans to be tied down by any woman. He valued his freedom, first and foremost and his expanding business was the only thing he was committed to. But he was intent on satisfying his intense desire for Jessa.
They both didn’t want to fight their physical attraction for each other. But Jessa found herself falling for the man who could not promise her tomorrow. And Rob was set on only having a short fling with Jessa especially when they lived in different states – he in Melbourne and she in Sydney.
Could Jessa trust herself not to fall apart when the time came to let Rob go? And could Rob ever find freedom in what he considered as a prison to be avoided at all cost?
