From award winning
author Billie Dale comes a second chance love story muddling the line
between love and hate. As young love goes Joey and Preslee were perfect
but nothing last forever and the world is ready for the taking. Dale’s
sassy wit shines in comedic fashion with Say You’ll Be There, book two in Love in Seven Mile Forge.
At sixteen, Joey Holmes handed me his heart.
At eighteen, I threw it at the Now Leaving Seven Mile Forge sign on my way out of town.
A silly teenage game of seven minutes in heaven spiraled us from friends to more.
We shared our firsts. Loved with the innocence of immaturity.
I
wanted out. A fresh start far away from our tiny home town. Joey didn’t
care where we were so long as we were together. I couldn’t spread my
wings without clipping his. My heart told me I was doing what was best
when I left him broken in my rearview mirror.
With a threat
breathing down my neck, I’m forced to return home but Joey isn’t the
skinny boy I knew. Nope, now he’s the sexiest Chief of Police in three
states and he hates the very air I breathe.
Can the hot cop keep
me safe from the danger lurking in the shadows or will the bleached
bones of the skeletons in my closet be our tragic end?
**Say You’ll Be There is the second book in the series Love in Seven Mile Forge. While it might be helpful to read Wannabe More (the first book in the series) it is not necessary.**
*Trigger Warning - While full of laughs and smiles there is a darker element involving stalking.*

Excerpt
I recognize this man-child smile. The one capable of turning the hardest, scariest enforcer into a big kid.
“Joey? Josiah Holmes?”
Fuck my life. He was a slumpy, nothing, short stack the last time we were together. Not much bigger than me, which I enjoyed because when I wore heels I was actually taller than someone. Now he’s all towering, beefy, and take it all off hot.
“I’m gonna run these. Sit tight and don’t make any sudden jerky movements.” He yanks the items from my hand.
“Joey? Come on, it’s me. I’m cold and headed to Sammy Lee’s. Can’t we let this one slide?” I blink my eyes, remembering how he never could tell me no when I turned on the charm.
His cheeky vigor falls to a thin pinched line. “Officer Holmes,” his voice lowers, turning jaded. “And I let nothing slide. Roads are too nasty for the speed you were driving.” The icy bite of his tone is worse than the blustering winter tundra surrounding me. He twists on his thick boot heel, and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t watch those tight ass-cupping pants walk back to his car.
The frost continues when he returns, handing me a ticket and my documents. “Slow it down,” he warns. He pauses on his path away, turning those irritating glass-hidden eyes, which I want to slap off his face. “Welcome home, Preslee Carmichael,” he jeers. Cocking a one-sided smirk, he head bobs in that Southern gentlemanly way and walks to his car.
I spend the rest of the drive to Double V ranch pissed off. Angry at the insane circumstances that sent me running home, raging because my brother can’t be here for a few weeks, and irritated at Joey F*ing Holmes for not only ticketing me, but also pretending we meant nothing to each other and being delicious while he did it.
F*k my life and f*k Seven Mile Forge.
