Stand By Me
About this ebook
Kym Knicely has spent years caring for others. Now she’s ready to focus on earning her doctorate in education and building a career. Charles “Chaz” Banks is a devoted grandfather raising his four-year-old autistic granddaughter. The two have a cute meet-moment at an airport.
Chaz has already weathered marriage, divorce, and the unexpected demands of caregiving. Given the slight age gap, falling for Kym makes Chaz wonder whether his heart is ready for a second chance at love, even as family responsibilities pull him in a different direction. Together, Kym and Chaz must decide whether faith, love, and commitment are strong enough to bridge the differences between them—and lead them to the happily-ever-after they still hope for.
