A story that will have you glued to each and every word on the page and sharing a deep connection with each of these characters." -Wonder Reads Blurb: I need to get out of town … fast. Scandal, betrayal, and a tarnished name have me fleeing my Manhattan penthouse with a lone suitcase and a manila envelope holding the hardest decision I'll ever have to make. With no destination in mind, I land in a quaint beach town in South Carolina. I'm about to get lunch when my Christian Louboutin heel gets stuck in the decking. I'm desperate to rescue it when my hero appears. A very moody, very heartbroken hero named Grant Dawson. He's sensitive, protective, and absolutely gorgeous. I have to shield myself from the sun but mostly to avoid his glare. Grant doesn't take well to women from the big city … especially ones who wear expensive shoes. Despite Grant's unwelcoming attitude, I decide to stay in town and rent a room from an elderly woman who sets me up with a job as a waitress. Imagine my surprise when I find Grant is my new boss, and he’s annoyed to be working with me. Not one to bow down from a challenge, I work alongside Grant even if it kills me to do so. As I get to know him, I start to like the single father with a painful past. The more I care, the easier I find I could fall in love with him. Grant doesn't trust women in heels for a reason. When I get the courage to open the manila envelope, I might once again prove him right when I walk out the door for good.

Called Out of Darkness


Book Description

An intimate memoir of Anne Rice’s Catholic girlhood, her unmaking as a devout believer, and her return to the Church – what she calls a decision of the heart. Moving from her New Orleans childhood in the 1940s and ‘50s, with all its religious devotions, through how she slowly lost her belief in God, Called Out of Darkness also recounts Anne’s years in radical Berkeley, where she wrote Interview with the Vampire (a lament for her lost faith) and where she came to admire the principles of secular humanists. She writes about loss and alienation (her mother’s drinking, the deaths of her young daughter and later, her husband); about the birth of her son, Christopher; and about how, after 38 years as an atheist, she once again came to believe in Christ. Anne Rice makes a spiritual confession that is a celebration: a brilliant, subtle exploration of the journey through life that allows one to answer the call out of darkness.
