Consider: sending a surprise pizza to someone in Louisiana can result in a $500 fine; at times, it has been illegal to scare the queen in Canada; if you participate in a frog-jumping contest in Angels Camp, California, and your frog dies, you are not allowed to eat it; [and] it's against the law to harm a sasquatch in Skamania, Washington. Discover all the strange and unusual laws you might not even know you're breaking!" -- Back cover.

Keeping You Away
The last time I saw my first love was twelve years ago. We fell hard and fast, but it didn't stop me from leaving. I never expected to see her again, but when I move back to my small hometown, there's no avoiding it-especially since her dad's my new boss. The more time we spend together, the more I want a second chance to be the man she deserves. As old sparks resurface, we grow closer. Though she denies she feels the same, I notice the way her body reacts when I'm near. Gemma isn't mine-yet-but I'm willing to risk everything for her. KEEPING YOU AWAY is book 1 in the Tyler & Gemma duet and must be read first.
