Leaving Kate Jd Corbett

No big chances, and no big changes. This was Kate's motto. With her father out of the picture, and a mother who had quit being "mom" a long time ago, Kate finds herself floating through life under the shelter of her brother and best friend. Afraid of rocking the boat and having to face the world alone, she makes every effort to keep her circle tight. That is, until she meets Eric, the charming Southern boy from Texas who stands out like a sore thumb in the bustling city of D. C. Eric has suffered much in his past, but, unlike Kate, he has learned to grow from his experiences instead of run from them. When Eric first arrives in the city, he is a bit out of place. His southern drawl and beat up cowboy boots aren't exactly a fit for the area. Motivated by the necessity to get the best help possible for his mother, he strives to rise above his tragic past and make the most of his new surroundings. He already has plans to be a soldier, just like his father, and he will see his commitments through. After meeting Kate, he thought that falling in love was a positive turning point in his life, but instead he was taken for a ride on an emotional roller coaster. Just when Kate finally begins to let her guard down, letting Eric in, dark events cloud her new sunny attitude towards life and love. After a traumatic incident that shatters her whole world, fears from her past re-surface and she is forced to decide if she is willing to stay open to love, or if the risk is just too great. And a decision needs to be made soon or she will lose everything.
