Lily Turner was married to her best friend. Trouble was, it wasn’t much more than that. After the romance ended, so did the marriage.
​
When Lily met Casey Dunlap at a local café, their attraction was immediate, yet innocent, his sexy charm instantly drawing her in. When their harmless meetings slowly evolved into more than just friends, Lily struggled with the magnetic pull Casey had on her, not knowing what to do.

It should have been easy - she was no longer going to be married. She had no reason to drag her feet…
​
Except that Casey was nearly fifteen years her junior - only ten years older than her teenage son. What would her kids think? How could she possibly do this?

​Lily Turner longs for a very different kind of love than what she shares with her husband - the kind that ignites your body and your soul. Somehow, she and Mark lost that spark or perhaps they never even had it.  All that is left is more of a friendship than a marriage. And they both agree that they deserve so much more.
 
Now they are trying to separate their lives with as much care as they can for the sake of their two children. Everything is going exactly as they planned.  Life is moving on. Lily should be happy but all she can feel is lost.  Until she sees Casey smile.
I suddenly stand with a thought, walking to my laptop situated on the built-in desk. Taking a seat in the chair, one leg tucked under the other, I research the tolerance of older women dating younger men. Is it such a stigma, these days?

I shut the lid before the browser retrieves any information. How do I even know Casey is on the same page?
​
Maybe I’m only kidding myself.
​Casey Dunlap is mysteriously drawn to the woman who comes into the café almost every night. She’s unassuming, beautiful and just a little bit sad. The chemistry between them grows stronger with each stolen moment. There’s nothing he wants more than to make her his own but fate has other plans.
 
So when a tragic accident brings Lily back into his life, Casey is going to fight to prove to her that age is only a number when you finally find forever love.
Staring into his whiskey-colored eyes, I place my hands on his cheeks. “You are so magnificent,” I whisper. “Why me, Casey?”

His frown is instantaneous. “Why not you, Lily?” He shrugs as he moves me further up his legs, his stomach now nestled tightly into the apex of my thighs. “I can’t explain it, really. I was drawn to you immediately – more than physically.” He wiggles his brows playfully. “You have a beautiful soul.”

I smile at his compliment. “How do you know?”

“Because I can feel it.”

And when his mouth closes on mine, I know what he means.

I can feel his, too.
​The Reason is simply an unforgettable reading experience!  In her poignant prose, Stacy fashions a uniquely modern love story in all of its pain and glory.
 
Lily and Casey light up the pages with such a sweet longing that it’s actually palpable. And despite the blatant ageism and injustice that they encounter, they still find a way to stand strong – together.  
 
Their story is completely honest and even frustrating at times. It’s perfectly imperfect.  Just the way love should be…
