William has spent
six years running from his past and the last eight months trying to rid his
mind of the dreams that increasingly haunt his nights. Trapped in a world of
false ambitions and feigned affections, William knows he’s reached a breaking
point and something’s going to give.

Maggie had lived
her entire life without hope until one man showed her what it meant to be
loved. He’d been her light in a lifetime of darkness. Six years ago, that
darkness stole him away. Without him, she’s surrendered herself to an existence
she doesn’t know how to escape.

When the family
William left behind is struck by tragedy, he is called back to the one place
he’s sworn to never return to again. 

In a moment that
will change his life forever, William comes face to face with the girl who,
with one look, captured his heart. He is unable to ignore the buried desires
and the hope for the future they’d once believed they’d have. 

Now William is
ready to fight to take back what had been stolen from him six years before.
But he never
imagined what that fight might cost him. 

A.L. Jackson gives
you an intimate look into the lives of a family bound by an unseen connection
in this new contemporary romance.

She first found a
love for writing during her days as a young mother and college student. She
filled the journals she carried with short stories and poems used as an
emotional outlet for the difficulties and joys she found in day-to-day life.

Years later, she
shared a short story she’d been working on with her two closest friends and,
with their encouragement, this story became her first full length novel. A.L.
now spends her days writing in Southern Arizona where she lives with her
husband and three children. Her favorite pastime is spending time with the ones
she loves.
