Not Close Enough

When one dream falls through, you take another route to your intended path. Becoming an independent truck driver allowed Joseph "Hannibal" Mayer the opportunity to see this country on his own terms. Being a loner suits him because of his trust issues stemming from past experiences. Life on the road provided Hannibal with a different type of education that taught him the rules he needed about being a trucker that benefited him in more ways than one. After fifteen years he wanted more than just diesel fuel and endless highways, but what did he have to offer other than long distance.
Lane Frazier was forced to start over after a bad choice that led to her spending 18 months in a women's federal detention center. The one talent that she relied on to provide her with a decent living is all she has. Now that life has given her a second chance Lane is still trying to find her footing. Acting out on impulse on a hot September afternoon with a hot trucker leads to a steamy attraction turning into something neither of them saw coming. The two strangers met under unconventional circumstances but ultimately have more in common than they ever realized. Can two people who have had trust issues and bad experiences truly find love? Not Close Enough is a standalone love story.
