Dare to Live — S.B. Alexander

Maybe opposites do attract. Kody Maxwell's life has been rooted in grief and death. He tasted love briefly until the girl he loved died suddenly. Determined not to experience that kind of pain again, Kody prefers being alone and writing music. His life goal is to sign with a big-name producer who will take his music to the next level. But lately, he's been struggling with writer's block until he encounters a beautiful nurse with the voice of an angel. She brings out feelings he hasn't experienced in a long time, and that scares the crap out of him. Still, he knows he can't let her get away. She may have just what he needs to get his juices flowing. Motorcycle-riding Jessie Ryan loves the thrill of danger and the exhilarating desire for speed. She plays by her own set of rules. But when she discovers she carries the breast cancer gene on the same day she meets the most gorgeous man she's ever laid eyes on, she isn't prepared to face what the future may hold. As Jessie and Kody begin to form a bond, they learn things about each other and themselves they didn't see coming. Will they dare to live when fear threatens to stop them? Dare to Live can be read as a stand alone. Intended for adult audiences.
