In fact, she’s never been kissed! When she lands her first job working with her mentor redesigning the house of tech innovator Miles Austin, she’s determined to focus on her work, not his ocean-blue eyes or mesmerizing tattoos. Miles isn’t seeking love. Juggling his role as a single dad to his daughter and managing his health tech company, his heart has remained closed off since his ex-wife left seven years ago, saying she never really loved him. But Vicky’s faith, the way she treats his daughter like a princess, and how much he laughs when they’re together, draw him in, one quiet conversation at a time. The only problem is that she’s eight years younger than him and has an overprotective brother back in Rome who has made it clear she’s off-limits. But sometimes, love doesn’t follow the blueprints. Sometimes God rewrites them completely. Just as Vicky and Miles are about to see what could be between them, an opportunity back in Rome is offered to her. Should she leave and not pursue what she thinks is the love of her life? Will he ask her to stay and build a life with him and his daughter, MJ? Love by Design is a beautiful love story, rich in God’s love, His perfect timing, and healing between a single dad who doesn’t believe he will ever be chosen and a younger woman who struggles with her body image. Age Gap. Curvy Girl. Faith Themes. Never Been Kissed. Forced Proximity. Forbidden Romance. Found Family. Single Dad. less
