    -L.J. Shen, USA Today Bestselling Author. When my son was six months old, he was kidnapped, plunging my life into darkness. After ten years, people expected me to move on like he had never existed. But I was stuck in a holding pattern of guilt and regret, unable to see the light at the end of the tunnel. It wasn’t until I met Porter Reese—a man who was just as broken as I was—that I found hope for another sunrise. No questions. No judgement. No faking it. Just two people alone in the darkness. If only he’d promised me no lies, too. Across the Horizon is a full length spin-off about Porter’s younger brother, celebrity chef Tanner Reese. “Sometimes love happens when you least expect it.” That was what my husband’s mistress told me the day I found out about their affair. I didn’t believe it until five minutes later when mouth-watering celebrity chef Tanner Reese walked up, tossed his arm around my shoulders, and told my cheating husband to take a hike. Tanner and I couldn’t have been more different. He spent his weekends at clubs, rubbing elbows with fellow A-listers. I spent mine in yoga pants with cheese boards and a glass of wine—or six. Our relationship shouldn’t have worked, but it did. That is until Tanner proved to me that even though love happens when you least expect it... So does heartbreak.
