From Different Worlds
She has a beautiful daughter, a supportive circle of friends, and a handsome, successful fiancé, Nick. To outsiders, it would seem like Crystal is living the perfect life. But when Nick accepts a promotion that would force them to move from her hometown of Jacksonville, Florida, to Houston, Texas, Crystal can’t escape a lingering sense of doubt. Now she has the rest of the summer to pack up her old life and prepare for a new start—but is this guy she’s ready to give everything up for really Mr. Right? When she meets a total stranger at a local park, it only adds to her confusion. A white-skinned loner with no real career ambitions, Adam could be considered Nick’s polar opposite in every single way. But while the career-driven Nick prefers to buy affection, Adam is genuine and true—and he even hits it off with her daughter, Angel, right away. As the lives of these perfect strangers collide, they both must face difficult choices—as they each experience a growing sense of longing that transcends racial and socioeconomic lines. But will they manage to be honest about their true feelings, to themselves and each other, before it’s too late?

Sweet Quickie
Very sweet. Very clean. The ultimate question I walked away with was, could I be with a man who up until the time I met him, had no ambition to do more with his life? The immediate answer is no, but you must read the story to get the full context.
Adam lost his family in a tragic accident, and he's now just existing instead of living. Crystal is engaged with an 8-year old daughter, only she's not in love with the man who is about to uproot her and her child from the only life they've ever known. Adam and Crystal meet by chance, and it becomes a race against time. Can Adam convince Crystal not to leave and give them a chance, even though he has nothing to offer her, except love? Or does Crystal play it safe and be with a man who can only support her financially?
I wish this story were a little longer, so we get to see how everything ultimately played out, but it was still an entertaining quickie, nonetheless. I'm usually wary of dudes who write IR romance, but the author did a good job.
