A Promise of Forever

The last person Kelly Blake expects to walk into the office of her father's complex to rent an apartment is Matthew Nicholson, her ex-husband. Seeing him after nine years brings back the pain of his desertion and their eventual divorce.

Matt is nothing like the boy with long hair and worn leather jacket who fell in love with Kelly in high school. He's a successful architect, and part of that success includes buying the complex to demolish for a new project. His trained eye can see the complex is in need of major repairs. His offer to buy it would be a favor to Kelly and her father, and give them plenty of money to live comfortably for the rest of their lives.

Kelly's father, Leo, doesn't see it that way. He refuses to sell to the man who had hurt his daughter so drastically when she needed him the most.

A medical emergency proves to Kelly Matthew truly loves her. She and Matthew have to let go of their painful past before they can share a future together.
