    About this ebook

    ** This 10,000 word short story was originally published in the ALL OUR LOVE Romance Anthology by Novel Grounds **

    Raven Sawyer was anything but stupid. 

    When she found out the man she dumped for being a prick was part of the mob, she heeded the police’s warning to lay low. She’d gotten a rental car and drove, with no direction where she was going except away.

    She was managing fine, until her car broke down. Alone on a deserted dirt road, she began to walk, only to get almost hit by a truck. 
    …And Jackson was a mighty fine truck.

    Sometimes, all a city girl needed was a southern man, a small town, and an escape from a dangerous criminal to find happiness.

    Note: this is a stand alone, companion short story in the Distracted series. As an optional read, it takes place between Global Distraction (book 2) and Southern Distraction (book 3, coming soon). No prior reading is necessary.

    Juli Valenti

    Juli Valenti grew up in a small town in Arkansas, known for Wal-mart, which is no longer small but is still known for the grocery store. Lucky for her, she didn’t retain an accent, despite her overuse of ya’ll when talking.  She currently resides in sunny Florida with her husband and two young boys. If her world wasn’t crazy enough, she also works a full time day job, as well as owns her own editing company (Juli’s Elite Editing).
