In high school, I wanted Katriona Merrick more than my next breath. I dropped hints and flirted like hell with her, but she never took the bait. So, I waited. And waited… Graduating a year ahead of her, my resentful goodbye, paired with her oblivious farewell, crushed me. How could I be so wrong about her? She tossed me aside without a second thought, making me swear off so-called love forever. Yet, the emptiness and heartbreak have haunted my every second. And every one-night stand. Flash forward a decade to my temporary return to my hometown. Running into her was a pipedream wrapped into my worst nightmare. When she blindsides me in an unexpected place sporting a changed appearance, bitterness wars with hope. But as an engineer, I’m an expert at building walls of all kinds, and I refuse to be her victim again. Before I move to Philadelphia for my new job, a huge part of me wants Kat to suffer the pain she’s inflicted on me all these years. Still, when her past accident rules her present, I offer to help her learn how to drive, with a side goal of finally nailing her. It’s a win-win until she reveals the truth about what I thought was reality. Though her ditching me created this broken, vengeful, and unfeeling monster, I think I’m the one getting schooled. And another broken heart. The Keys to Jericho was chosen as an Official Selection in the Romance category of Apple Literary’s 2017 Annual Book Awards.
