Writer, speaker, and surrogate fairy godmother Ginger Kolbaba offers encouragement, challenges, biblical insights, and a little humor on how God wants us to live and love our stories in the here and now.

A sexy movie star with a secret. The woman hired to protect him from himself. An attraction they never expected—and can't deny. Public relations rep, Megan has her work cut out for her keeping the movie star of the moment, Gage Mitchell out of the lime light and most importantly—out of trouble, or both of them will be looking for new careers. Surrounded by wilderness, and tucked away in a remote mountain lodge far away from the paparazzi, there isn't much for Megan and Gage to focus on—except each other. But when a dark secret from Gage's past threatens to ruin everything, Megan and Gage stand to lose it all—including each other.

An office romance is never a good idea. Especially with a man like him. But who said anything about romance? This is just fun and games…until it isn't. Just over forty years old, and I’ve always managed just fine without a relationship—even a fake one, thank you very much. My mother taught me well—love is nothing but a myth and it certainly doesn’t pay the bills. My career has always been my focus, and it hasn’t let me down yet. But when my friends challenge me to have a little sexy fun with their silly go-for-it pact, I can’t seem to stop myself from asking the playboy billionaire CEO, Trent Thomas to play along. Sinfully sexy, the man sends thrills through me with only the tiniest touch. Imagine what could happen behind closed doors! Of course, he’s game to help me out, with one condition… I must agree to listen to him—whatever that means. It’s not long before I find out exactly what that means and my carefully constructed Ice Queen walls begin to melt with the heat of our little no-strings arrangement. I’m going to have to work overtime to keep them in place. After all, without those walls to protect me, I might have to finally face what I’ve been hiding from all these years. Maybe my mother was wrong. Maybe love isn’t just a myth. Maybe there's more. But if there is, do I really want it? And even if I do…does he?

Go with the flow. Have fun. Stay true to yourself. And above all else, remember…no relationships. Ever. From a very young age, I saw firsthand how a relationship could change a woman and make her lose herself. I vowed never to let it happen to me. And for over forty years, it hasn't. That is until my happily loved-up friends get it in their head that I’m missing out and dare me to really get to know a man and become friends with him. No sex allowed. One specifically—Blaze Baron, international heartthrob and massive movie star who recently moved to town and seems to have set his sights on me. I’m way too old for a dare. Still…I find myself agreeing. Besides, hooking up with a megastar so it can be splashed all over the gossipy tabloid sites for the whole world to see, isn't really my vibe. And shallow pretty boys really aren't my vibe. I won't have any trouble keeping things PG-rated and firmly in the friend zone. Except as it turns out, there’s more to Blaze than his ridiculous good looks. A lot more. No one is more surprised than I am that the more I get to know him, the more I really start to like him. And don’t even get me started with the crazy chemistry between us. The man can make me feel things with only one look and it doesn’t take long for this to become one promise I won’t be able to keep. There’s a reason I’ve lived my life on my own, but what if everything I ever thought about love was wrong? And if it is, is it too late to admit it?

It was dangerous. But I was overdue for a little danger. And when he touched me…all bets were off. I'd climb on the back of his bike night after night, if he'd make me feel that way again… A middle aged, overworked single mom barely keeping my head above water, I'm hardly living my best life. He's a rough around the edges biker who can't be anything but trouble, and he's looking at me as if I'm the sexiest woman alive. Maybe I shouldn't have said yes, but I needed a ride home. And he offered. On two conditions: Hold on. Let go. It was dangerous, but I was due for a little danger, and when he touched me…all bets were off. I would climb on the back of his bike every night for the rest of my life if he'd make me feel that way again. And again. He lights up every part of me. Even my heart. But I don’t know anything about him. And when I find out… Everything changes because I no longer know who or what to trust anymore. And if I don’t figure it out soon, I will lose everything.
