With the Christmas decorations twinkling all throughout the house and the cookies baked, I feel like it’s time for me to hold on tight and enjoy the ride. I will try my best not to blink because I will surly miss something. What is with that? Time never flies when I am cleaning the house or doing other boring stuff, but add a few twinkly lights and I am zooming along in a time machine set to warp speed. I gotta figure out a way to make using the spin-bike delightful so I can do my twenty minutes a day without crying after the first minute. I guarantee you once I discover that secret I will let you all know. We can all be exercise nuts together. Right now the only cure I have is shoving a cookie in my mouth and spending my twenty horrible minutes figuring out ways to justify eating and spinning.

Navie Collins has spent years convinced she’s not good enough, that no one could possibly want her.

Rowan and Navie are convinced they hate each other. But as time passes and the attraction between them begins to grow, these two stubborn, strong-willed people have a life changing decision to make.
