    About this ebook

    Watch the sparks fly when a woman who doesn’t believe in love, family, or happily-ever-after meets a hopeless romantic who does. Michelle Alerte brings you Book 1 of her new romance series Love At First Sight. A Promise Worth Making will make you laugh, cry, and cheer our hero on to victory.

    Dr. Rachelle Joseph has no time to dally with a man. She is on her way to Haiti to contribute her medical expertise in the aftermath of the earthquake. Having grown up in a New York orphanage, neither fostered nor adopted, independent Rachelle has recently discovered her Haitian heritage and seeks to embrace it. But life throws her a curveball. On the plane to Port-au-Prince, Rachelle meets Nicolas Marchand, a handsome French architect who, for some reason, gets her heart racing.

    Nicolas’ father had always told him the Marchand men were “gifted with knowing, when they know, that they know” when they meet the woman with whom they’ll fall in love. Though this had been true for his father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Nicolas had never truly believed this would happen to him—until Rachelle Joseph, that is.

    The hard part now is convincing the lucky lady the two of them belong together in spite of Rachelle’s trust issues and fear of depending on another person. Will Rachelle overcome her determination to keep control of her life by shutting Nicolas out, or will he persuade her that loving and trusting another person is better than living only on the surface of life?

    Michelle Alerte

    Michelle Alerte has been in love with reading and writing fiction since she was a child. What draws her to this art form is being able to create unique, honest, and flawed characters and bringing their stories to life. While her favorite genre is romance, she enjoys crafting literary and horror stories as well. When not working as a contributing author for several magazines and blogs, Michelle can be found at museums, plays, or being active in the great outdoors–when the New York weather allows for it. Michelle Alerte would love hearing from readers at https://twitter.com/MichelleAlerte.
