In this thrilling debut, author Lissa Lovik plumbs the murky depths of a man’s mind as he insinuates himself into the life of the woman he’s determined to have and to hold . . . forever. For Chris, it’s love at first sight. After their grocery store meet-cute, it’s easy to get her name from a fallen receipt: Serena. A quick online search reveals Serena’s status (single mom), address, and workplace. And once he discovers she’s a Realtor, Chris schedules a house showing right away. But he isn’t pushy—he’ll wait to ask her out. In the meantime, he’ll just watch. And listen in. He wants to learn everything about her, so he can make her happy. It’s not creepy; it’s true love. From their first date, their relationship is perfect. But Serena’s best friend keeps getting in the way. She thinks he’s just a friend, but Chris knows better. He knows better about a lot of things. Keeping her in line is getting harder, but their love is worth the effort. The stars aligned when Chris and Serena met in that Winn-Dixie. And they’re going to be happy together . . . even if it kills them.
