Excerpt – Opening Scene (SPOILER ALERT)
Translation: “You have breast cancer.” Four words no woman wants to hear.
It was on the night of the grand opening of my Paris hotel one week ago and after a long day, while taking a shower, I felt a small lump in my right breast.
After several tests and a biopsy, Dr. Benneteau, the oncologist called…
Days later, I still can’t get over the shock.
As I stare at the gray clouds that cover the Eiffel Tower, my phone rings, snapping me out of my thoughts. My husband Jonathan’s face illuminates my screen.
“Hey, baby. How are my two favorite men in the world?”
“Overwhelmed. I just had a break and I wanted to be sure I checked in with you. Any idea when you’re going to be home?”
Not anytime soon.
“Apart from seeing your handsome face and my sweet son for a couple days, I really can’t rationalize flying across the Atlantic for two days. I have to head over to Austria to make sure everything is on schedule with the property there.”
“I miss my wife, and Jordan misses his mom.”
My chest aches at the sound of his words. “If you really want, I’ll come home but it would be so much less pressure on me if I just stayed.”
He sighs at the end of the line and mumbles a disgruntled, “Okay.”
“It’s not like you’d have time for me either if I came, is it? You couldn’t even make the grand opening of Paris Bleu. All you’ve been telling me is how crazy it has been trying to get everything in place at the various branches of the firm.”
“That’s true. I just miss you that’s all. Things just seem so much easier to handle when you’re here.”
His words warm my heart. “I miss you too. I’ll be home as soon as I am able, I promise. In the meanwhile we always have FaceTime. But don’t you ever forget how much I love you.”
“I love you too, babe. I have to go. I’ll be in touch soon.”
I end the call.
I may not have gotten over the shock of my diagnosis, but from the moment I found the lump, I’ve spent all my time researching it, and I have another appointment with the doctors this afternoon.
Jonathan’s been overwhelmed of late since his sister Megan moved to Switzerland and his right-hand man, Cooper, lost his wife after a battle with—breast cancer. I don’t want to worry him. Besides, it’s just stage two breast cancer…or at least that is what I continue to tell myself.
I have already made up my mind about what I’m going to do—handle it on my own. Have a double mastectomy so this never ever resurfaces again and tell my husband when I get home. That way, the problem will be handled; they’ll see that I’m healthy and we can all just move on with our lives. I’ll be saving them the agony of going through this anyway…
Wow just wow I don't even know where or how to start this review, I have to say that I love the way Rebecca writes her book once you start reading it you don't want to put the book down. And that's what happened with this one I have to say that this book will have you seating at the edge of your seat wondering what will happened next.
This book got me a little mad at the beginning that I just wanted to get the female character out of the book and smack her around for I little bit but after reading more into it I understood her reason and love every single minute of it. I cant get into detail with this book cause I might end up giving somethings away and I don't want to do that, and also cause the book is short.
If you read the first book in the series ( Love, Lies and the D.A.) than you met Jada and Jonathan and you know how they met and what they when through and how they felt in love. Well this book is about them thirteen years later and they still married and with a ten year old son. While they are both busy with their carrier they tried t maintain their happy life.
But once Jada is in Paris working from her hotel Resort she gets a phone call that change her life. The news that she get she think she could go through with it on her own but what she was not expecting was for her world to be one of depression and loneliness. Mean while back at home Jonathan is going through some things to where his world is also turn up side down. But when he find out the truth about his wife he know he needs to be their for her. Once they get back to each other world their life is put to the test will they make it.
I really love and enjoy reading this book, love how protective Jonathan is over Jada and his son love it how he never left her side and how he made her feel love again. Love it how Jada believe in him and how she was their for him no matter what was said love the chemistry that they still have for each other.
