The Pace of Love

Pulse-pounding, adrenaline-fueled adventure has always had twenty-five-year-old Kasey Loren's heart. She's a woman who knows how fast life can slip away and is determined to seize every moment she can. She's sacrificed love, friendship, and stability to reach her goals, and nothing will get in the way of her chance to land a prestigious job at Outdoor Adventure Magazine. Not even the extra dreamy owner of MacKenzie's Bookstore who carries worn-out novels in his back pocket.

Elliott MacKenzie lives through the pages of the Adventure Fantasy he loves so much, content to hide behind the magic of made-up worlds to protect his broken heart. He is comforted by the routine and stability of his small-town life until a whirlwind of a woman shows up in his store, stirring up feelings he hasn't felt in a long time.

When Kasey and Elliott strike an unlikely deal to write an article on the town's secret hot springs, their ambitions, desires, and fears are exposed through their undeniable attraction. But can two people who have dealt with unfathomable heartbreak be brave enough to fall in love again?
