Publisher Description
Their one night together was a complete letdown, but Hilliard Griffin was still obsessed with her. When the woman he knows only as 'Anna' stumbles into his office ill, he accepts his fate. The problem is that Anna doesn't believe that they belong together. After she repeatedly rejects him, he decides to wait at the finish line for her to realize what true love is.
Motivated by grief, Anna turned to Hill for a one night stand. Only to find out that one night with him would haunt her for the rest of her life. A chance encounter brings Hill back into her life. Ruthlessly, she rejects him. Yet, the more she pushes him away, the more he shows that he believes she is worth waiting for.
Patience and trust are the foundations of Hill and Anna's. Sometimes love happens at first time, and it is beautiful. But, like Rome, some the truly extraordinary things cannot be built in a day.

The Finished Line
Good story etc but the writing throws off the time period. It is written with historical romance wording set in present day with the background and setting of WWII. Get verbiage straight then would be exceptional book.
Great, quick read
I have thoroughly enjoyed all of Josie Kent's books. Often, when I read short stories, I don't feel involved in the characters' lives. That has not been my experience with any of her short stories. I would love to see a full length novel from her!
The Finish Line
The best short story I have read in a long time and best of all, it had a real ending. I so hate to be left hanging.
