About this ebook

When her domineering fiancé cheats on her, pastry chef Kate Sweet trades the city for her hometown of Barnesville and works as a waitress in her parents' diner. Lonely and insecure, she tries to start over but instead runs into Michael Hart, the boyfriend who sent her away after he was paralyzed in a tractor accident. All her old feelings for him return in full, but Michael is just about to get married to someone else — her old rival for everything back in their school days. Michael is drawn to Kate again but resents that she left him. He doesn’t remember how pain and painkillers changed his behavior and made him so sorry for himself he literally ordered her to go. Now she must decide whose happiness is more important, his, now that he has a fiancée, or hers…with him. How can it be both?

    Always You - Jennifer Wenn

    Inc.

    Michael was here?

    The chair fell backwards as Kate stood up and stared at her father with horror. Oh, my God. She was looking a fright, her unruly curly hair untouched by a brush and the makeup from yesterday smudged all over her face because she had been too tired to care about washing it away.

    I…I… she stuttered, and Burt smiled knowingly before turning toward the door and, after opening it, calling to Michael to come up and join them.

    Before Kate could do or say anything, the one person in the world she didn’t want to meet when she looked her worst walked into the kitchen and stopped dead as his eyes found her flushed face. His lovely blue eyes started to sparkle as he took in her disheveled person in her too-large pajamas.

    Well, isn’t it Sleeping Beauty. He grinned, his amusement over her appearance apparent. To Kate’s horror, her obnoxious parents giggled simultaneously before they, with a load of mumbled excuses, left the kitchen.

    They left her alone with gorgeous Michael who, as he leaned back in the doorway, his arms crossed over his chest, looked good enough for her to have for breakfast.

    Praise for Jennifer Wenn

    Jennifer Wenn weaves a wonderful story…

    ~Pauline Michael, Night Owl Romance (3.5 Stars)

    ~*~

    Very well-written…. The characters are so vivid. They seem about to walk right off the page.

    ~Maura, Coffee Time Romance and More (4 Cups)

    ~*~

    The plot, the characters, the love, loss, pain, and just everything about life that we know is out there is blended into the pages almost seamlessly as though they were born there.

    ~Valkyrie Fatality, Rockin’ & Reviewing (5 Stars)

    ~*~

    I would definitely re-read it.

    Dedication

    To Lilie for introducing the love of my life to me.

    Chapter One

    Lonely.

    Kate Sweet stared at her image in the large window as the last customer closed the creaky door behind him, leaving Rosa’s Diner empty.

    I’m so lonely.

    Stop it.

    Or almost empty.

    Dragging herself away from her self-made bubble of misery, Kate looked at her mother, who stood behind the diner counter, her hands resting angrily on her generous hips.

    What?

    Just… Rosa Sweet breathed deeply, as if trying to calm that infamous bad temper of hers. Just stop it. Your father and I are so tired of you behaving as if you have lost everything. You lost a fiancé. That’s all. Nothing more, nothing less.

    Wh…wha… Shocked down to the aching toes in her too uncomfortable shoes, Kate felt her chin drop an inch.

    Just a fiancé?

    Charles Buford Wilson the Third might not have been what her parents had in mind for her, but he had been her dream come true. Tall, handsome, and with a family tree branching back to the Mayflower, he had knocked her off her feet with his easy air and his inherited self-confidence.

    He was the crown prince of New York society, the king of Wall Street, and she had been his one and only. Whenever he asked, she had hung on
