"Old friends become passionate lovers. Do they have a future together?"

Jennifer Turner has had two tough years, but she's ready to emerge from her grief. Faced first with the devastating car accident that took her parents' lives, leaving her to raise her two younger sisters, then her fiancé disappears in a helicopter crash in South America and is presumed dead. Her daughter was born less than nine months later. Is it a betrayal of those she loved and lost when Jen moves on with her life?

Jack Logan has desired Jen for years, but she became involved with his best friend, Victor, before Jack could ask Jen out. During the tough time that Jen has been going through, Jack has been there as a friend. Now Jack thinks it might be time for more. But how can he compete with a dead man?

Jack and Jen make a well-matched and passionate couple. Jack, once a "poor little rich boy", has been looking for love his entire life. Jen needs someone who will put her needs first and always be there for her. If they can accept each other, flaws and all, both Jack and Jen will get what they need. But what if Victor isn't dead?

NO TIME TO DREAM is a sizzling, poignant, and realistic love story. Maybe the best relationships are those that start with friendship and then lead to love. The first book in a planned series, next up are the stories of Jen's two sisters and her brother. This is my first novel by Ms. Harte, but it won't be my last!

Summary

Left alone to raise her daughter and her orphaned siblings, Jennifer's life is dedicated to responsibility. Disturbing visions of her missing (and supposedly dead) fiancé, Victor, who disappeared in a plane crash almost two years ago, still haunt her dreams. How can she justify lusting after another man?

But Victor's best friend Jack is here. He's real and very alive. Lusting after Jack's sexy body makes Jennifer feel disloyal...but she's not sure she can help herself, especially when Jack sets out to prove he is the man of her dreams.

Sexual Content: Hard R. Genre: contemporary.
