Not the treasure they expected to find
Trading the past for a simpler life in Miami is part of yoga teacher Taki’s path to better karma. But when a devastating theft brings federal prosecutor Reese Beauchamps into her life, things are suddenly a lot more complicated!
She’s drawn to gorgeous Reese in ways she can’t explain. His analytical mind prevents him from understanding why spiritual intuition guides her…and he reminds her of what she’d rather forget. But chasing a criminal, they can’t dodge the sizzle of attraction. Now, unless Taki trusts Reese’s determination to protect her, she might run again…and leave love behind.
Neither of them spoke for a moment.
“I feel so close to you right now,” Taki whispered. “Do you feel it, too?”
Reese sucked in a quick breath, then released it. “Yes.”
And it was true. He did feel somehow connected to Taki. What had happened to his common sense? His usual levelheadedness must have fled at the same time as his sense of balance. And that had all occurred when he’d met her.
She raised her hand to his cheek, stroking his face as if caressing a precious keepsake. “I know I met you for a reason,” she said, her voice full of wonder.
“Taki, I…” He cupped her neck with both hands and pulled her toward him, never wanting to
let her go.
This story began one evening when I saw a totally hot guy in the parking lot after yoga at the gym where I practiced at the time. His car and several others (not mine, fortunately) had been broken into, and he definitely was not happy. My mind played the what-if game—and Reese, dedicated workaholic, spiced with the personalities of a few attorneys I’d worked with over the years, was born.
Taki was inspired by one of my early yoga teachers, a lovely woman who always lived by yogic principles. She never worried about tomorrow or the past, didn’t react to anything negative, always remaining serene and positive no matter what occurred. We’d all be a lot healthier if we could behave like her.
Have you ever tried to stay totally in the present moment? It’s not easy. Once, while hiking through a magnificent old-growth forest, surrounded by incredible natural beauty, I realized even then my mind wandered someplace else. Why? What better place was there for me to be at that moment?
Life is a beautiful journey for us all to cherish. The South Beach Search is the story of Taki and Reese, how they fall in love and change each other. I hope you enjoy their journey!
