And When

Stubborn independence is what her Canadian upbringing had taught her. To hide insecurity behind laughter and a smart-mouth…that, she’d inherited. After the divorce in her twenties, Jade Prency lived life on her terms, but the purchase of a home would mark the start of an unexpected, twisted journey.

When her doctor discovers her first tumor, she stumbles. Her hardships are nothing compared to the devastating news of her father’s diagnosis. Watching her hero wither, everything she ever believed changes. Lost in emotional turmoil, Jade withdraws from the world.

Feeling separate and alone, she reaches to an online community for understanding. Here she can hide her worn appearance safely behind a keyboard.

Building friendships, careful to avoid the men’s flirtations, she allows one man to become her strength across the miles. Her online family watch fascinated, as Brady Gibbs, the handsome American who held her hand through it all captures her heart.

Ready for a future with the one man she believed would keep her safe, life throws one more unexpected twist.

Online, where real becomes make-believe and make-believe becomes all too real.
