Book Blitz: What Endures by Katie Lee

What Endures
By: Katie Lee
Release Date: August 1, 2013
Contemporary New Adult

Jason Kincaid is young, hot and successful.
An All-Star outfielder for the Seattle Mariners, he finally had everything he ever wanted,
including a second chance with his high school sweetheart, Megan Williams.
But their hopes for a ‘happily-ever-after’ are dashed by tragedy.

A horrific car accident wipes out most of Jason's memories. Unable to recall anything from 
the last fifteen years of his life, Jason is suddenly adrift, his once charmed life now in ruins.
Megan finds herself in the untenable position of having to deal with the fact that the man 
she’s helping to rebuild his life may look, and even act, like her beloved fiancĂ©, but in reality, 
isn’t any longer.

Trying to protect herself, as well as Jason, Megan fights the attraction between them. . .to no 
avail. As their potent connection inevitably draws them closer, Megan wonders,

With the memories of their relationship gone, can love endure?


Excerpt:

Jason's mind felt the need to try once again to put the brakes on things. He pushed her
tousled hair from her face, trying not to focus on her kiss-swollen lips, or the way her
heaving chest was causing a breast to peek in and out of her unbuttoned shirt. Somehow he 
found his voice. “We. . . .I don't think. . .”
“No,” she admonished. “Don’t think. Just. . . .just feel.”
“Megan. . .”
She leaned in and kissed him lightly. “No regrets,” she whispered against his lips 
before she kissed him again. He responded instinctively and kissed her back, passionately 
and deeply. Then all thoughts of stopping were wiped from his mind as he let himself do as 
she instructed - feel.

She didn’t know what she was missing…until he found her.

Maxwell Knight was positively trouble, dangerously good-looking, and seductively charming. He was everything Jeanella didn’t need in her life. Only Maxwell didn’t see it that way. His pursuit was relentless, making her even more determined to push him away.

Fresh out of college, life was simple and plain for Jeanella Mefferd. Every part of her life was smooth sailing; her friends, her job, and even the guy she’d started dating. Then one night, while at dinner, she spotted someone who made her feel things she’d never felt before—dangerous, heart pounding and breathless heat. Thinking she would never see him again, she brushed it off, but when she started to run into him unexpectedly, all she could think of was how he made her feel with his sweet flirtations. Everything about Maxwell Knight screamed trouble, especially when she found out he was her new boss’s son.

Or would she miss out on the chance of finding something great?
