Synopsis
Eva Bennett might be known for her candid approach and sharp
tongue, but on the inside she’s still a vulnerable twenty-four year old who’s
sick of kissing toads and being habitually single.
Full of comical one-liners and wielding a charming smile, Sawyer
Keeton is more than meets the eye. After the news of his brother’s tragic
death, however, Sawyer is pulled into a place filled with crippling emotions
and pain—a place no one can seem to reach him…until the moment Eva steps into
his life.
A twist of fate will bring them together and then tear them
apart, forcing the two to learn there are people in life whom you cherish and
pray will never forget you.

“Do you have any tattoos?” I
grabbed my drink. Playing with the straw, I stared at him as I waited for his
answer. Everything else had been answered correctly, by my standards, and I
found myself silently praying this answer would be right too.
Sawyer’s
lips quirked into a slow smile. “Tattoos? Is that something you’re in to?”
“I’m
the one asking the questions here,” I countered in a failed attempt to deflect
how desperately I wanted his answer to be yes.
His
brows rose to his hairline at my tone. “Okay. Yes, I do.”
My
heart kick-started. Damn, Sawyer was perfect on paper. He didn’t live with his
parents; he had a car, a job, muscles, and tattoos. Lauren would be proud I’d
found someone bona fide.
I
arched an eyebrow. “What of and where?”
There
was a serious need to know festering inside of me. He pulled off his jacket,
and placed it on the back of his chair. My eyes fixated on him as he pushed up
the sleeve of the long John beneath his polo shirt and flashed me a script
tattoo along his forearm. Leaning over, I read:
With
pain comes strength
Reaching
out, I felt along the smoothness of the words without thinking. Was this a
military thing, or just a lifelong reminder?
“What
made you decid to get those specific words?” I pulled my hand away, and leaned
back in my seat, eager to know his reasoning behind it.
Sawyer
tugged his sleeve back into place, and shrugged. “It’s the truth. The things
that hurt us the most make us stronger in life. It also goes hand in hand with
my military training. The pain from pushing myself physically and mentally only
helped to make me stronger in the end.”
I
had a feeling the words meant more to him in the first aspect than the second.
“It’s
beautiful,” I said.
“Thanks.”
He chewed on the inside of his cheek as though he were lost in thought.
“Do
you have any more, or is that the only one?”
The
trance he was under lifted and his eyes locked with mine again. He grinned.
“Are you a tattoo junky?”
“I’m
the one asking the questions for the moment, remember?”
“Right,
I forgot.” He chuckled. “I have one more. I can’t show it to you in public
though, at least I don’t think.”
I
tilted my head to the side. “Oh really?”
“Yeah,
it’s definitely in one of those you-show-me-yours-I’ll-show-you-mine places.”
“Ah,
okay. Maybe some other time, then.” I grinned, liking the flirty tone to his
words more than I should.
“I
hope.” He flashed me an impish grin.
Dear
God, me too. Thoughts of where this mystery tattoo could be spread through my
mind like a wildfire. I hoped it was somewhere nice, like somewhere along the
sexy V I was positive I remembered him having. My teeth sank into my bottom lip
as I continued to think of all the places it could be.

Facts About Forget You
Facts About Forget You
1)
The Coldcreek Companion Series was supposed to end with Lauren’s story (Wreck
You), which would have been a total of three full-length novels, when I started
planning out the series. However, once I met Eva in Control You (Coldcreek Book
2) I knew she deserved her own story.
2)
Eva grew up in foster care which left her with many issues as an adult, but
also pushed her in the direction to become a Social Worker. This is what she’s going
to college for.
3)
While each novel in the Coldcreek Companion Series touches on some fairly heavy
emotions—some more tragic than others—I feel as though Forget You is the most
emotional out of the four.
4)
Sawyer Keeton is Eva’s love interest in Forget You. While being one of the
funniest guys I’ve ever had the pleasure of writing, he was also an active
member in the National Guard which was something I knew nothing about.
5)
While writing Forget You I was lucky enough to score an interview with a local
active member of the National Guard. In the interview I asked everything I
could think of…Including what he missed most while in basic training. His
answer was (not surprisingly) privacy.
6)
When I was writing the bonus short story (Forgive You) found at the end of
Forget You, I cried throughout typing the final page. Also, the bonus short was
a complete afterthought, something I hadn’t intended to write, but felt readers
would enjoy for more closure.
