Choosing
Hope is a harrowing story of passion and deceit, the things we do for love and
the rabbit holes we tumble into chasing elusive fairy-tale endings. Dark around
the edges with a shocking twist I didn’t see coming, this is the kind of book
you’ll be passing around to your friends so you can talk about it. Holly
Kammier delivers romance, suspense, and a strong, smart heroine who turns out
to be nobody’s victim. Don’t miss this one! – Kat
Ross, best-selling author of The Midnight Sea
BLURB
A broken marriage.
A love affair.
A lie that changes it all…
A love affair.
A lie that changes it all…
Hope Rains Sullivan is living the
dream—a successful husband, two beautiful young boys, and a charming home in
Northern California. She should be happy. She almost convinced herself she was,
until Adrian came along.
Adrian, appears to be everything
her husband isn’t. He works with his hands, and is even willing to use them in
a fight. He’s sexy, strong and fit, with warm brown skin that alludes to his
Spanish background. Best of all, he lives for spending time with his kids.
Feeling alone in her marriage, Adrian offers her a way out.
Hope’s affair is just the
beginning. Her journey inward will require untangling her complicated past and
surviving an astonishing revelation. Her lover is not who he pretends to be.
She’s searching for her
happily-ever-after, and no matter how painful the journey, she’ll find what
she’s been looking for all along—the chance to choose Hope.

EXCERPT:
I
held my breath for a beat and tilted my head to press my lips against his. Our
mouths parted, fitting softly together at first, until he kissed me harder.
He
tasted so good, my body pushed closer. Our lips knew each other. I moved on top
of his lap, my legs on either side. His warmth, his crisp citrus scent. This
was what kissing someone should feel like.
Hormones,
pheromones, love, whatever it was, washed over me. I needed this man. I wanted
to feel this way every hour of every single day.
My
hand found its way up the back of his shirt. His skin ran hot. The ocean
roared. I heard voices talking low, a couple walking by us.
His
hand pressed into the small of my back. His other hand grabbed at the nape of
my neck. He whispered, “I love you, Hope.”
I
froze. He tried to kiss to me again. He couldn’t, not with my lower lip firmly
entrenched in my teeth. I bit down with such force, I worried I’d draw blood.
Why was he doing this to me? Why was I allowing it to happen?
His
amber-green eyes looked into mine.
Tears
pooled against my lashes.
“I
wish you could feel what I’m feeling,” he said, “so you’d know it’s true.”
