Book excerpt: Going the Distance Bundle The Jess Donovan Stories Books 1 - 5 of the Going the Distance Series Jess Donovan wants a better life than the one she was born to, but how do you figure how what you want when life has never been anything but a series of hurdles? A sexy series about figuring out what you want by falling in love, trying life on, and uncovering the secrets that have held you back for a lifetime. 19-year-old Jess knows better than most that life is random. Her mom is dead, and she’s on her own, patching together a living as a waitress when a car crashes through the restaurant where she works. In two seconds, she loses her job, watches her best friend hauled away in an ambulance…and meets ex-Olympic hopeful snowboarder Tyler Smith, one of the hottest, most fascinating—and mysterious—guys she’s ever met. Within days, Jess is swept up into the mesmerizing force that is Tyler. Their every touch sizzles, every kiss dissolves them both, and the sex is…fierce. But there’s more to Tyler than his hypnotic eyes. He’s adrift, too, and his body—and his soul—are covered with scars. How can she find herself with a guy who is lost himself? Unable to trust him or her feelings, when her long-lost father invites her to visit him a continent away, she leaps at the chance to get some perspective. In dazzling New Zealand, her fortunes seem to be turning way, way up. She lands a lucrative gig in a tourism commercial, cast opposite Kaleb Te Anga, a guy who's Tyler's opposite in every way. When things heat up between them on-set, fake kisses turning to hot real kisses, Jess finds herself torn. Is this just a holiday hook-up, or something deeper? How can she feel so much for two different people, and how will she ever choose between them? A powerful story about romance, making choices, and finding the life you were meant to live. Hundreds of five star reviews! "This book will always stand out in my mind in comparison to other New Adult books I've read.... The characters are great in that they aren't the quintessential good girl and bad boy that I've come to expect from the NA genre.. I really enjoyed it. I can't wait to read the others in this series!" --Roxy's Reviews
