You and Me Forever

As a child, Kressa Kostas had been the treasured first born of a Greek/ Scandinavian family.

The Kostas family was closely intertwined with two other families-her parents best friends.

Not unexpectedly, Kressa and the first born son of their close friend group became best friends.

But their lives were forever changed when at the young age of nine, the boy and his family vanished. Four decades later, the boy returns but with a different name and a ruggedly handsome face and toned body of a mature attractive man.

Kressa turns to her therapists-the old Greek goddesses-and a legendary mermaid to help her iron out her feelings for him.

At one time she'd considered him as the perfect male.

Is he still the one-and-only for her? She's lovely and mature, but feelings of wanderlust hit her as she sets about reinventing her life and remodeling her Washington coastal cottage she inherited when her parents died.

Her honorary uncle and aunt Otis and Ophelia live next door, and with their help, Kressa unravels the tale of why her best friend, a sweet-natured, smooth-faced boy disappeared forty years ago.

Can she dare to trust him with her heart? Or is Dr. Zayne Dodge, the magnificent hunk of a man who was once her nine-year-old best friend, just another sea storm who will pass by as the season changes? This is the ninth book by Marilyn Jacobson White (aka M.

J. White). This theme, like all of her books, is a second chance at love.
