Break Away (The Baltimore Banners Book 5) (22 page)

"Don’t be foolish! Of course I still want you to. Why would you think I don’t?"

"Just checking." She laughed and leaned up to kiss him. Soft, sweet, full of promise. And cut too short when JP pulled away, a small frown on his face.

"But what changed your mind,
mon ange
?"

"Something Monica said. She said I needed to stop being afraid. And she’s right. I want to live in the present, JP. In the future. With you. I love you."

The glimmer of hope she had seen in his eyes grew, exploding into something warm and promising. He grinned at her and she realized that what she saw as promising was really his love, as strong and sure as her own.

"My
Emilie
. You’re mine. You always have been. I love you."

His mouth closed over hers, warm, full of hope, full of promise.

Full of a future finally able to break away from their past.

About the Author:

 

Lisa grew up with an overactive imagination, strong encouragement from her parents, and an insatiable infatuation with the Peanuts gang. That infatuation—along with an impatience she has yet to outgrow—jump-started her love of writing. After all, why should she be forced to wait a whole week to read the stories of her favorite characters when she could create stories for them whenever she wanted? 

 

That love of writing continued to grow, along with all those voices in her head, even during her assorted careers: first as a firefighter with the Baltimore County Fire Department, then a very brief (and not very successful) stint at bartending in east Baltimore, and finally as the Director of Retail Operations for a busy Civil War non-profit.

 

Lisa currently lives in Maryland with her husband and two sons, one very spoiled Border Collie, two cats with major attitude, several head of cattle, and entirely too many chickens to count.
