Book excerpt: Pediatric nurse Esther Sartin has been in love with Drake Lewis for as long as she can remember. He's always been out of her reach, until now. But there's a problem. Is the rough around the edges single dad the same man she's loved since junior high, or is she pining away for a distant memory that no longer exists?Widower Drake Lewis is not looking to love again. Far from it... He's too busy and too tired raising his kids and making ends meet to squeeze one more thing into his life, especially romance.A blind date, complete with three kids and an old hound dog, leads to a relationship that makes both Drake and Esther wonder about their future. As Drake's weary heart opens up to love once more, can he show Esther the man he truly is before it's too late? Or will his gruff demeanor and cool attitude cause Esther to finally get over him for good?
