    About this ebook

    Because second chances can last a lifetime...

    Sonja thought she'd never see Jay West again, at least not outside her TV screen. They first met when he was eleven and she was ten. Their older sisters forced them to play together while they ran upstairs to make unsolicited phone calls to cute boys. Finally, Jay asked me what was the name of the puppet I was holding in my hands. 

    I hung my head, embarrassed by what my sister called my state of perpetual geekdom and said, "Skinny Pig."

    He said, "cool!" And from that moment on we became best friends forever—or at least I thought.

    Years later I developed boobs and he became a teenage heartthrob. Then came that night. 

    Something happened between us—something unexpected and confusing. That was fifteen years ago. We hadn't spoken since then. Now here I am, staring into his deep blue eyes. He's no longer a boy and I'm not a girl. I'm a woman and he's a sexy man, who's just offered me the position of a lifetime. 

    Should I take it? 

    If I say no, my mundane life will go on as is. If I say yes, I'll have to trust Jay West won't eventually leave me high and dry like he'd done so many years ago.
