Promises and Other Broken Things (Amelia & Declan Book 1‪)‬

Amelia York seems to have it all: a great career, good friends, and she’s married to her high school sweetheart. Starting a promising new job is just another step in the life she has all figured out. The intense connection she develops with a handsome co-worker, however, threatens to derail all her well thought-out plans.

Declan Kavanaugh's whole world revolves around his daughter. Overworked and under-appreciated both by his wife at home and his colleagues at his family's firm, the stress is starting to get to him. Making friends with the pretty new accountant comes as a surprise, but he finds time spent with Amelia is like the breath of fresh air he so desperately needs.

Neither of them want any complications in their lives—and the last thing they want is to fall in love.

But as they discover, sometimes no matter how much you fight it, life has other ideas.

"This was a very compelling read. A story of two people unavailable to each other, yet somehow they find a way to establish something really good between them. I felt the gamut of emotions from anticipation to happiness to tears to anger to longing for what may never be. Unfortunately, they are mere mortals who tend to make mistakes, some forced, some unforced. Yet through it all we still root for them to find a way." - C. Scheveck
