The best is worth waiting for…
Surry McDaniel loves designing beautiful clothes. In fact, it’s the only thing she truly loves. Clothes can never fail her, the way people can. But when she’s accused of stealing designs, Surry risks losing the life she’s spent years building.
The only person who can help is Ian Duncan, a political strategist who knows how to fix bad PR and who hasn’t been able to stop thinking about Surry since they met. But Surry has kept him—and everyone else—at arm’s length as long as they’ve known each other. Helping her would be a risk, but the more Ian gets to know Surry, the more he knows that while she needs him, he needs her even more.
The man was swimming toward her corner of the pool. As Surry was trying to decide whether to get out of the water or to move over to avoid being in the way, he stopped swimming and stood up.
“Ian,” she said, surprised as she watched him wipe the water from his face.
“You were expecting someone else,” he said as he took a few steps in the pool and then bent his head down and allowed his lips to lightly touch hers.
Was this really happening? Was Ian kissing her? His lips felt so good that she couldn’t help but put her arms around him and pull him closer. She opened her mouth and hungrily kissed him until she imagined herself purring with pleasure. “Mmm,” she said with her eyes closed as the kiss ended.
Leaning into her, Ian kissed her eyelids, her forehead, her cheeks. He placed another soft kiss on her mouth and then said in a husky voice, “I wish I had known that all I had to do to shut you up was to kiss you.”
Surry’s eyes popped open. She pushed him away and jumped out of the pool. “I’m going to get dressed for dinner.”
“Don’t go. I was just beginning to enjoy myself,” Ian called after her.
With hands on her hips, she turned back to face him. “You were enjoying yourself a bit too much. And I’d appreciate it if you don’t let it happen again.” With that she swung around and left the pool area with as much dignity as she could muster.

Dear Reader,
Writing about Surry McDaniel and Ian Duncan was more like visiting two old friends. They were so easygoing that it felt as if I had known them for a lifetime but only now decided to write their love story.
You’ve read about Danetta and Ryla in the first two books of the For Your Love trilogy. Now I’d like to open the door to Surry’s world in the final book of the series…and I guarantee you that it is definitely The Best of All!
Ian Duncan is not a man to be taken lightly. He’s successful but dreams of even bigger success with the woman he has fallen in love with. Surry, on the other hand, has no time for love. She is on the fast track to success and isn’t willing to stop for anyone…but Ian Duncan just might change her mind.
Thanks for taking the time to read The Best of All. I truly hope you enjoy reading this story as much as I enjoyed writing about Surry and Ian.
Happy reading,
Vanessa Miller
To Diamond—the best is truly yet to come for you.
