He Loves Me Healthy, He Loves Me Not by Renee Dyer
Release Date: October 26, 2015
~ Synopsis ~
Chiari.
It’s a strange little word about to change Nick and Brenna St.
James’ world forever.
Brenna was raised to believe loves conquers all. Losing piece
after piece of herself causes her to waver in her beliefs. Insecurities abound
and she can’t stop wondering if Nick can love the person she is now. Is it fair
to ask him to?
Nick wants a do over. To go back to a time before Brenna was
sick, before everything changed. But genies don’t exist, life doesn’t grant
wishes, and time machines haven’t been invented. All he can do is follow his
heart...and his heart wants Brenna.
Together, they have to face a battle they never imagined.
When fighting is all you have left…
When love can't heal everything…
When life rests in the balance of the unknown...
When their vows, “…in sickness and in health”, are put to the
test…
Will Nick and Brenna be able to fight through the odds stacked
against them, or will everything come crumbling down?
From a young age Renee Dyer had a love of writing,
starting with a doodle pad at age four that soon turned into journals and later
computer documents. Poetry became short stories and short stories became
a novel. Although she's surrounded by males all day having three sons, a
husband and a hyperactive chocolate lab, she still finds time to be all woman
when she escapes into the fantasy of reading and writing romance. That
is, until she needs male perspective and garners eye rolling from her
husband. She's a true New Englander. You'll find her screaming
profanity at her TV while the Pats play and cuddling under blankets during the
cold seasons (which is most of them) reading a good book. To her snow is
not a reason to shut things down, only a reason to slow down and admire the
beauty. Ask her questions and she'll answer them. She's an open
book, pun fully intended.
For Adriana Monroe life couldn’t get any better. She has great friends, her photography business is booming and she married Alex, her childhood best friend. Life is perfect. It’s a fairy tale really.
But one night changes everything for her.
Suddenly she’s alone. She’s afraid to trust and afraid to love. Most of all she’s afraid she’s broken beyond repair. Nightmares torment and haunt her every time she closes her eyes.
Will she ever be the same?
For Tucker Stavros it looks to the outside world like things come easy for him. He’s gorgeous, rich, famous, has a hot girlfriend. Hell, he’s a movie star. If women aren’t trying to get with him then men are wishing they are him. What they don’t see is the broken child hiding behind the smiles he fakes for the cameras. They don’t see the man who wakes up drenched in sweat from his nightmares from a past he can’t escape.
Betrayal sends him running.
A chance encounter throws Tucker and Adriana together. They try to fight their attraction for each other. They feel they’re too broken for the other.
Will they continue to suffer in the hell of dreamland separately or will they find that Waking Up to real life together can be so much sweeter?
Adriana Monroe had her life planned out. She was going to marry Alex, have a house full of kids, and spend as much time as possible with their friends. But, life had other plans. Life stole Alex from her and Adriana grieved his loss so badly, when she had the chance to love again with Tucker Stavros, she couldn’t do it. She was broken and felt her love for Alex would break Tucker, too. So, she walked away.
Now, her heart is shattered and she’s mourning the loss of both men.
Tucker Stavros has lived his life looking for love. After losing his mom at a young age and being abandoned by his dad, the only love he’s known is from his Grams. His relationships have been disasters. He’s never felt that spark… until he met Adriana Monroe. Everything changed for him the second he saw her smile. He didn’t care that she was grieving. He didn’t care that she was broken. He saw himself in her lost eyes. He would have done anything to make her his. Just when he thought they were becoming something special, she walked out of his life, crushing his heart.
Now, he’s alone, afraid he’ll never find anyone that makes him feel the way he felt for her.
Tragedy strikes and Tucker and Adriana find themselves thrown together once more. Will she continue to protect him by staying away, or will she find that her heart will take what it wants? Will Tucker shy away from her, or will he run to her and show her why they belong together?
Will they hide from each other, or will they walk into the unknown with their Eyes Wide Open knowing that in order to heal, you have to first be broken?
If I could describe my world in a color, it would be black.
My heart is black. My mind is black. Everything is black.
I let darkness take over when I was sixteen. That’s when my world fell apart. That’s when I learned Tucker Stavros took my life away from me. I’ve spent years allowing the darkness to comfort me; letting it take my emotions and box them up. Why do I need emotions anyway? They only make me weak. I need to be strong for what needs to be done.
What needs to be done, you ask?
That’s simple. Destroy Tucker. Bring him to his knees. Show him how it feels to lose everything.
Well, that was the plan, until Cammie Richards walked into my life. Now there are gray areas — slight color bleeding through the black.
What happens when she looks beneath my darkness and sees the monster lurking there? Will she run away or try to save me?
