Taking Hold

Katherine isn't looking for something new. Barely keeping things going as she manages the single parenthood thrust upon her when her deadbeat ex-husband left them for another woman, dating hasn't even been on her radar. So when her daughter's climbing teacher strikes up a friendship and makes it obvious he's interested in more, Katherine is shocked. Is she ready for this? And can a younger man really be ready to take on a divorcee with two kids?

Jakob isn't thwarted by the fact that Katherine is a little older than him, that she's in the throes of a divorce, or that she has two kids. He can't stop thinking about her, and he's determined to be what she needs to feel comfortable starting a relationship with someone new, someone younger. Jakob helps Katherine open herself up, growing up a little bit himself at the same time. But can they make it through all the obstacles between them?

Taking Hold is a steamy, reverse age gap romance that tells the first half of Katherine and Jakob's story. Check out the second half of their story in Holding On.
