For The Love Of You — Natisha Raynor

Sometimes following your heart means breaking someone else’s. Tylynn’s first love was no different than most young girls. It tore her down, ate away at her self-esteem, and darkened her world. Then along came Joshua. After months of pursuing a skeptical Tylynn, he succeeded in winning her over. He was charming, attentive, sincere, and romantic. He was everything that she needed at the time, and for saving her, Tylynn would forever be appreciative. But is appreciation the same as love? Tylynn struggles with various issues in the relationship, including the long distance, and Joshua not wanting children. She tells herself over and over that those things are minor, and for a faithful, hard-working man that adores her, she should be able to get past those things. Many women would love to have a man like Joshua, and even the thought of leaving him makes Tylynn feel like the biggest fool in the world. Until her best friend, Jamar, says something that begins to play in Ty’s mind over and over like a mantra. Life is too short to be unhappy. From the moment she lay eyes on Ameen, Ty is smitten. She’s drawn to the powerful man like a moth to a flame, but she’s taken. Still, life is too short to be unhappy. However, would throwing away her two-year relationship to succumb to lustful desires make her happy, or would it make her stupid? Ameen is a boxer with sole custody of his son. He’s focused on fatherhood and excelling in his career. Having more than one failed relationship in the past has him determined not to bring anyone else into his young son’s life unless she will one day to be his wife. When Ameen meets Tylynn, he’s impressed, mesmerized, and even infatuated. But there’s one problem… She has a man. There’s no shortage of women trying to get the attention of Ameen, but oddly enough, he only wants the one that he can’t have. Throwing caution to the wind and giving in to their desires could end one of two ways for Ameen and Tylynn—either very good or very bad.
