Book excerpt: Jude Holland is a man with a problem. His heart belongs to his best friend, but his best friend belongs to someone else. Maya Jenkins has a bigger problem. Her boyfriend's jealousy and temper is controlling her life. When she plucks up courage to leave Carl, she reaches out to Jude. Four years younger, her best friend has always made her feel safe. Maya has hidden her true feelings for Jude for seven years and coming out of an abusive relationship is not an appropriate time to reveal them-or is it? After rescuing her from Carl's clutches, Jude is shocked by how much Carl has destroyed Maya's strong spirit. No longer the carefree, self-assured woman he once knew, Jude vows to help her pick up the pieces of her life. However, Jude didn't bank on Carl's unwillingness to let go.Lemon Drops And Love is book one in the hot and steamy Cocktail Series.
