All things come in God's time, including love.

Tara Whitman has a big problem. She's in love with her best friend, and it's getting harder to hide it from him. She fears the truth will destroy a friendship she holds dear, even as she battles jealousy toward the string of leggy blondes that parade through Jack's life.

Jack Carlton spends his free time at one social event or another with the latest woman he dates to protect a huge secret he's keeping from Tara - he's in love with her, has been for years. Haunted by the memory of a kiss shared in their teens, he doesn't want to endanger their friendship. Yet the thought of her kissing someone else drives him to distraction if he lets himself dwell on it.
