Nineteen Days

If there’s anything Emma Mallory hates it’s the feeling of impending doom; that sensation of imminent danger that sends unwanted exhilaration coursing through her veins. The last time she threw caution to the wind, all hell broke loose and her life changed in ways that would make even the most paranoid recluse cringe. The hot rush of adrenaline is a shy, guarded girl’s worst nightmare.
Her quiet life is quickly upended when the neighborhood thrill-seeker, Jack Spencer, forgets his wallet at her pharmacy counter. Her meddling boss, Maggie Finnegan, insists Emma deliver it to him herself, and despite her reservations, she does what Maggie says. She trusts her seasoned, elderly boss who always seems to have an answer for everything, but she fears a matchmaking scheme might be on the agenda.
When Jack opens the door and invites Emma in to talk, she is immediately overtaken by his enigmatic personality. He’s everything she’s not. He loves the thrill of a perilous jump, the feel of excitement exploding inside his chest. Going fast is what he does best. He wants to get Emma’s stunted heart beating again but he doesn’t know about her shocking past. And to top it off, he’s moving to a snowy mountaintop seven-hundred miles away in exactly twenty days.

Jack wants to remind Emma what it feels like to be alive. She wants to forget. He has nineteen days to change her mind.
