Love Lessons — Mallory Rush

A Misdiagnosis Leads to Love Lessons and Discovery of True Love

Mobile, Alabama and various Caribbean islands

Twenty-seven-year-old children's librarian, Whitney Smith, has six-months to live -- or so she thinks. Shunning treatment, she chooses to live out her bucket-list in the time she has left. Topping her list is losing her embarrassing virginity to a fabulous lover with whom she can have a mad, passionate (albeit temporary) affair on an exotic Caribbean island.

Dr. Eric Townsend, a renowned and brilliant volcanologist with a taste for danger, is entranced with the self-assured and sensual Whitney, so much so that he's fallen deeply in love and wants a permanent relationship.

Whitney returns to Mobile, feeling ill and preparing to die only to discover her disease is treatable, and her most recent illness is a temporary condition called pregnancy. Broke, jobless and having presented herself as a fraud to the man who loves her, Whitney reaches out to Eric to see if he can love the “real” her in the hope of a genuine and lasting happy-ever-after. But love has many lessons.
