The 1st Promise
About
NOTE: This is not your light, easy romance where boy meets girl and, after a few misunderstandings, they get together to live happily ever after. This is a love story—an epic love story. Think real life.
When City Brit meets Country Yank, two worlds collide, and only the dog doesn’t bite.
“Run, Aaron!”
World champion figure skater Sophia Morgan-Smythe wasn’t one to let outstanding debts gather interest, and she’s bound to repay the grumpy, hostile American hick who paid for her tow …only to wind up further in his debt when he steps in a second time to save her life, and the only good thing about the guy is his dog named Buckley.
Brit meets Yank in this epic tale of love against all odds. Buckley likes her; Aaron doesn’t. Sophia is totally confounded.
CLEAN, SAFE READING
This book contains no profanity, no graphic sex, nothing to make you want to hide your eyes. This novel is just pure entertainment in good taste. There’s suggestion, there’s sensual tenderness and intimacy, there’s even situational humor (‘humour’ to you Brits), but it’s all General Audience. Nothing cringe-worthy.
NOTE TO READERS: This book is written using two languages, U.K. English in Sophia’s point-of-view and U.S. English in Aaron’s, so word definitions, syntax and phrasing, as well as spellings change accordingly. You are advised. :) —D. L. Keur and Carole Hill.
NO AI CONTENT, GUARANTEED. This is all original work by D. L. Keur and Carole Hill.
EDITORIAL REVIEWS
“I’m a guy. I don’t usually read romance, but, for D. L. Keur, yeah, when asked, I did it ...and was rewarded with nice even handling of both the male and female characters. Not sure I like Sophia all that much. She’s definitely not the kind of girl I’d look to marry, but, yeah, I can see a guy falling for her. Oh, too easy.” —L. L. Alexander, editor.
“The 1st Promise is both laugh yourself silly till you can’t even breathe and melt your heart warm. Otherwise, it’s a serious love story with impact. Highly recommend. ...Oh, and you’ll love the dog!” —Katy Wilson, romance reader.
“Got the honor of doing a beta read on this new book by one of my fav authors. Romance? Right. I was expecting ho-hum usual. I should have known better, knowing Dawn’s work. Nothing is ever usual with her. It’s a great read!” —Becky Little, eclectic reader
