Part of Series
When I first met Brendan Blake, he swept in like a gust of wind—a perfect storm rescuing all of my senses. The second time I spied him, the grump basically declared, “Up yours,” on a photo shoot. The third time, he regretted what he’d said the day before, and I once again was provoked by his hazel eyes, wicked smile, and devil-may-care attitude. Then again, his ripped body being photographed by my best friend didn’t hurt either. Brendan wrote down his private line on a pastry box. I sent him a memento of our first date—a blueberry pie—almost as soon as it was over. He hooked me. It helped his idea of a perfect second date involved taking me to a baseball game. I let him in—all the way in, took him deep into my heart. I didn’t have any choice. Despite the one hard and fast rule I laid out—never lie to me—I lied to myself. I told Brendan my heart wouldn’t crumble if he didn’t love me. Would I have let myself fall if I knew the secrets he was keeping? I’ll never know. I do know you love someone until you can’t. That’s when you set them free.

It wasn’t long before she was typing alternate endings and extended epilogues “just for fun.” After college in Florida, where she obtained a degree in Criminal Justice swearing she saw things she’ll never quite believe and never entirely forget, Tracey traded the world of law and order for IT. Her work for a global internet startup transferred her to Northern Virginia where she met her husband in what many call their own happily ever after. They have one son. When she’s not busy with her family or writing, Tracey can be found in her home in north Florida drinking coffee, reading, training for a runDisney event, or feeding her addiction to HGTV.
