No Simple Thing

by Sara Miller

Fiercely independent and proud of it, Kate Van Horn loves her life as a successful, single New York woman. She has no plans to marry. And children? Out of the question. But when she falls for Alec Callahan, all bets are off.

Alec seems perfect in every way, until she discovers he brings more to the table than good looks and irresistible charm-namely, a young daughter from his first marriage and a hateful ex-wife.

But believing in the power of love and the strength of her determination, Kate marries Alec and hopes for the best. Maintaining a demanding career while adjusting to the challenges of instant parenthood proves difficult enough. But when her husband's ex makes it clear she'll stop at nothing to make her life a living hell, Kate is faced with a most agonizing question-what do you do when love asks too much?

NO SIMPLE THING is the story of a woman's journey down a path she never imagined she'd take and the lessons learned along the way. It's a story about finding love, finding beauty in the ordinary, and finding strength in unexpected places.
