What makes a hero? They say a hero is someone that has given his life to something bigger than himself. I say a hero is no braver than an ordinary man, he is just braver for five minutes longer. All soldiers are brave, it's what they do with their bravery that makes them heroes. Am I a hero? Clayton Jackson dedicated his life to serving his country. Enlisting in the Marine Corps at the young age of eighteen, he never imagined following any other path. However, fate had other plans for him as a life-altering accident during his last deployment left him disabled and forces him to return home.

Their connection is instantaneous as if the universe conspired to bring them together. Isabella, a mysterious and enigmatic woman, is haunted by the demons from her own past. As their relationship quickly blossoms, the unspoken truths between them threaten to tear them apart. When Clayton is presented with the opportunity to rejoin the Marine Corps, Isabella is faced with a decision: whether to accompany him or remain behind. Caught in this web of secrets and lies, they try to navigate their love through the murky waters, desperately hoping to find solace in each other's arms. But will love be enough to conquer the shadows that lingered in their hearts? Or would the truth ultimately be their undoing?

I was her first and I'll damn well be her last.Mia Stanbury is the quintessential girl next door.  Smart, beautiful, and determined.  She’s got it all going on.  Is it any wonder that she’s been on my radar for as long as I can remember? Fine, I’ll admit that I’ve made a few boneheaded mistakes as far as she’s concerned, but what can I say?  I’m a dude.  Sometimes I think with the wrong head.  We’ll just chalk it up to one of the hazards of having a Y chromosome and leave it at that.  But I’m older now.More mature.Sort of. Mia has spent all of high school and college keeping me at a distance.  If she didn’t melt in my arms every time I put my hands on her, I’d almost think she was immune to my charms. This is our last year at Wesley before we go our separate ways.  Me to the NFL, her to law school.  It’s now or never.I’m done playing games and allowing her to push me away.The Girl Next Door was created by Jennifer Sucevic, an EGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.
