Overview

Overview

At 12, Vanessa Whittaker defied her family to save 17-year-old bad boy Eric Cipriani from wrongful imprisonment and, possibly, death. She’d hoped for a “thank you” from him, a kiss on the cheek, but before she could grow up and grow curves, he left town.

Fourteen years later, Vanessa is a celebrity chef at the five-star Ozarks resort she built. Eric is the new Chouteau County prosecutor on his way to the White House.

Four hours apart and each tied to their own careers, their worlds have no reason to intersect until a funeral brings Vanessa back to Chouteau County, back to face the man for whom she’d risked so much, the only man she ever wanted—

—the only man she can’t have.

Editorial Reviews

Midwest Book Reviews
The idea that you can't have it makes it ever so sweeter. "Stay" is the story of Vanessa, and her long lusting dream of Eric. Once simply a teenage crush, a decade and a half did nothing to quell it as Vanessa meets Eric once more when they are both adults. But there may be no long awaited happy ending, as Eric remains unattainable. "Stay" is a fine read of a woman's pursuit of romance and life, a read many women will relate to.

Meet the Author

Since before Moriah can remember, she wrote stories in her head to put herself to sleep at night. Unfortunately, they grew like kudzu and took over her neural path-ways until, around age fourteen, she had to start putting them on paper before they choked out everything else. She’s been writing ever since, with the exception of a five-year sagging middle—er, uh, hiatus—during which a lot of stuff happened. The trouble started when she woke up one morning in 2007 with the solution to a plot problem that had plagued her since 1995...

    Highly recommend this book and this author

    I am tired of the usual romance format and have just about given up reading the romance genre.

    "Stay" is not the usual romance format. You'll fall in love with the characters and the setting. This is a well-written love story, not just a romance. It reminded me of LaVyrle Spencer's love stories.

    Nothing about it comes off as contrived or "format." There was something about the pacing that moved me - it was relaxing but compelling and I didn't want to put it down.

    I'm glad Moriah Jovan is writing a series of books with these characters because I fall in love with all of them and look forward to getting to know them better. If you want to fall in love with people and places and falling in love, this book is a must read.
