CALAMITY JANE
Eliza
Five years ago, I made a decision that changed my life forever... I ran. Now I’m living in New York City with my best friend, Naomi, and my adorable son, Cade. With my past behind me, I can focus on my son and the business Naomi and I created. Calamity Jane was my nickname growing up, and now it’s the name of my little shop where I make and sell homemade bath products. I wouldn’t say my life is perfect, but it’s comfortable and quiet. I keep in touch with the only family I have left in Louisiana and get back home whenever I can. But the past I left behind still lingers in our little town, and I’ll do anything to keep my son’s existence a secret.
Call me jaded, call me cold, but when it comes to relationships and love, I don’t need or want it. Or…so I thought.
Jon
I’m living the good life. Single, successful, handsome, with friends I’ve known my whole life, and women willing to give me whatever I want without the unnecessary attachments I dread. Parties, yachts, women, booze…who could ask for more? Except…I’m bored. There’s no thrill anymore in women throwing themselves at me. I need more. I need the chase.
And then I see her . My friends see her too. She’s perfect. Exactly what I’m looking for. Now, I just need to meet her.
Calamity Jane is the story of a single mother running from a past that still haunts her.
Eliza Jane has sworn off men and the idea of love to focus on growing her business co-owned by her best friend and raising her son. Cade is a miracle, a survivor, and the smartest little boy she’s ever met. When a chance encounter at her favorite coffee shop has her thinking about a future she knows she can’t risk, she tries to resist. But Jon is a persistent man, and he won’t take no for an answer. He’s handsome, successful, sweet, and amazing with her son, but it turns out he’s a potentially dangerous connection to the past she has avoided for five years. Can she trust him? Or is it all just a game to him?
