They were each other’s first love in high school – now they’ll be each other's last love too.
Tara
Month after month, my friends are finding love through our book club. No one can explain it, but somehow whatever happens in the books we read happens to one lucky book club member in real life. When we read a story about childhood sweethearts who are reunited later in life, I never expect that this time I’ll be the one to fall in love.
Patrick
When I move back to my hometown, I never expect to run into my childhood best friend. I haven’t seen Tara in twenty-five years but the minute I lay eyes on her, I know one thing for sure: I’m still in love with her. And this time, there’s no way I’m going to let her go.
“Hot & Heavy” is a short story in the “Boozy Book Club” series. Each book in the series is a steamy standalone featuring a midlife couple, a nosy group of book club friends, a little bit of humor, and a sweet happily ever after that proves anyone can find love later in life.
