Unwrapping Your Love - Monica Walters - Bog

Presley Bowman's moment of reckoning has left her speechless. The life she has come to love and bask in has all been a lie, and now she's forced to pick up the pieces and start over. Not to be defeated, she accepts the government assistance she needs to take care of herself and her five-year-old son. Life is hard, but she's trying to be optimistic, knowing that things have to get better. Learning who she is and making changes within has been her focus even though her confidence is starting to dwindle. She's stuck in a job that she hates and is working as much overtime as possible to afford to give her baby a great Christmas. But it consumes her energy, leaving nothing to share with her greatest joy. As fate would have it, she meets Santa at her son's school and soon learns that he has a gift to share with her as well. Being a single parent has come natural to Josiah Lavan. He's his son's everything and that's just fine for him. Dealing with his baby mama is a headache most days, and he wouldn't be angry if he never heard from her again. His career as the athletic director at a high school is the position he's longed for, and he plans to do everything in his power to keep it. Volunteering as a little league coach is his greatest joy, because he enjoys being a role model to young boys and helping parents with their guidance. He had everything he desired except love. But that fateful meeting at his son's school proves that he would soon have the very thing he craved. The instant attraction between Josiah and Presley evokes different reactions. While Josiah is ready, Presley is fighting it. Can Josiah convince her that she's ready for love again, or will Presley continue to push Josiah out of her life just as quickly as he came in?
