Kate Connelly has been longing for escape from The Academy since the day
she arrived.

Just when she’d settled into her role as an elite cadet and Officer
Ranger Nealson’s wife, her first love, former Elite Cadet Pete
Davenport, crashes into her life once again. Unwilling to let Ranger have
her, he carries out a daring rescue, snatching her back from The Academy and
the possessive arms of her new husband . . . while on their honeymoon in
Mexico.

After the absolute best summer of her life, she discovers that The Academy
has retaliated by abducting her other brother, and a growing reason why she
has to return. Kate makes the heartbreaking decision to leave Pete, arriving
back at The Academy with Ranger’s prized possession. But instead of
welcoming her back with open arms, she’s greeted with a cold shoulder
and finds herself back to square one—with The Academy and with
Ranger.

Before she can even catch her breath, she’s forced, once again, into
carrying out The Academy’s ongoing plans for her. Meanwhile,
Ranger’s ruthless pursuit of revenge and reaching for the next rung in
his career leaves Kate isolated, outcast, and bitterly regretting her
decision to return. But just when things seem to be turning around for The
Nealsons, something crashes into their lives that shatters all that has ever
mattered: past, present, and future. Priorities, alliances, and old
vendettas shift once again. And their lives will never be the same.

About the Author

 

CJ Daly

CJ Daly grew up on the scrabbly plains of Eastern New Mexico. When she was
supposed to be helping her six siblings with chores on the family ranch, she
was really sneaking behind dusty haystacks to read. And dreaming about
becoming a writer.

After graduating high school, CJ moved to Big D (Dallas) where she quickly
put herself through college while trying to rid herself of her country
accent. She had better luck with college, graduating magna cum laude with a
degree in English literature. After teaching a few years, and pausing to
have back-to-back boys, she began writing in earnest.

A few years later, “The Academy Saga” was born. “The
Academy” is her debut novel, and “The Academy,
Cadet-in-Training” is the sequel. CJ is so proud that both books earned
Readers’ Favorites 5-STAR seals of approval. When she isn’t writing, you can
usually find her running from one athletic field to another, feeding the
array of wild animals that show up at her back door, or kicking back with
her gal-pals to sip cocktails and gossip about favorite books and TV
shows.

At the age of 18, Esperanza Ignacio begins her college years at an upscale Los Angeles art school, where she studies to fulfill her long-term dream in Animation. But she soon learns the truth to the old folktale: “you can take the girl out of the barrio, but you can’t take the barrio out of the girl.” Even though she’s getting financial aid, Esperanza works a part-time job during her break from classes just to make ends meet. Her roommate, Anna, is what she calls a “chicana from Beverly Hills” because of the rich daddy and the new car she got for her quinceañera.
Things get a little confusing for Esperanza when an old friend comes looking for her, hoping to start a meaningful relationship. But is Carlos the right guy for her? She never even considered him to be anything more than a friend since high school. Then comes Jake, a gorgeous mechanic, who shares her passion for books and loves her for who she is. What’s a girl to do?
Strength and determination help pave the way for the future. And, as she approaches her graduation, she is faced with a difficult decision: should she leave Los Angeles and leave behind her family, her home, and everything she’s known? Ever since she was born in the California barrio of Hawaiian Gardens, she’s always had to look over the fence, wondering what she’s been missing. Now she’s taking a flying leap over to see what’s beyond the little barrio. What’s beyond her family, her friends, and her past? What’s beyond the little nothing town, where dreams don’t exist? What’s beyond The Gardens? Is it life, love, a future?
