Description
JULIANNE DEANGELO’s life is on track: working toward a degree in marketing, she is also juggling a full-time job and planning her wedding. In spite of her full schedule, there is something missing in Julianne’s life. Driven to succeed, she joins an on-line marketing group where her mentor, Jack Guilder, becomes her confidante. Their on-line relationship grows, adding to Julianne’s second thoughts when her fiancé comes home smelling of perfume. Adding insult to injury, Julianne spies her fiancé in a cozy tête-à-tête with her disloyal sister. Julianne cancels the wedding and throws herself into a marketing career with Jack, getting caught up in a web of deception. With their futures on the line, Julianne and Jack struggle to maintain the image they’ve created as a couple, but Julianne’s former fiancé isn’t giving up without a fight.
The Reviews
"... At a time when computers and the Internet shorten actual distances even as they increase figurative ones, Karla Brandenburg's "An Intimate Distance" perfectly describes the effects of the pressures of life in the rat race . . . Karla's take on the influence of family on one's self-perception is brilliant. Equally incise is the manner in which she has condensed what can be really any workingwoman's life and choices. Networking, sexual harassment, emotional baggage, difficulties in letting go, and the need for life-work balance are all issues and experiences real enough to add to the romance." – Road to Romance
"Karla Brandenburg definitely keeps the reader on the edge of their seat. She throws in some nice twists to make it the not-so-average romance book." – Front Street Reviews
