Book Description...
"Life has a way of going awry when you least expect it, and Khalila Skyers learns this lesson the hard way. In one devastating blow after another, she loses her cosy existence. Then Douglas Blythe overtakes her life like a flood, and she's not equipped to deal with an attraction that seems forbidden and overwhelming. But her body and heart want what they want, and leave her wondering if she ever knew herself at all.
Douglas is determined to help Khalila move beyond her obsession with the past and reach for love a second time. No matter how long it takes. No matter the distance. He’s going to prove he's worth the risk."

"The Thick of Things" by J. L. Campbell
My Thoughts.....
Good story with some interesting characters...from Khalila, Trent, Douglas and Corinne who will gave this story some depth that will keep you turning the pages. From a horrible tragedy [death of her son] to a divorce will Khalila be able to ever have the life that she wanted? Well it looks like things are really looking up for Khalila meets Douglas who was simply a wonderful person. Will Khalila be able to move from her past issues to a new life with Douglas? Thank God Khalila had a wonderful friend like Corinne who was their for her through it all from her up and down times. Will Khalila be able to come out of that dark place? From the title "The Thick of Things" will these two Khalila & Douglas [older couple] get a second chance at love? This would definitely be a sunshine from the dark period that had been their for Khalila. Will she be able to finally feel the joy she so desired? I am not so sure I liked Khalila's father. He was indeed a strange bird. I love the patience that Douglas had for Khalila in not taking 'no for an answer but wanting to show her just how good he could be for her.' It was beautiful seeing Khalila working on her issues and climbing out of that depressed state. By the end this author gives the reader a good story with some emotional drama and let's not leave out the hot sexy scenes and in the end it looks like a HEAFN. To find out how it all goes down you will have to pick up the good read to see how this author presents it so well to the reader.
