			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my book,<a title="Can't Get Enough of You" href="http://www.harpercollins.com/browseinside/index.aspx?isbn13=9780062000095" target="_blank"> <em>Can&#8217;t Get Enough Of You</em></a>, Jenna Gaines faces a tough question so many of us have to face at one time or another: when an old flame comes back into your life, should you take a risk and give them a second chance or walk away?</p>
<p>            There are plenty of good reasons why Jenna, a smart college professor, should not get involved with her ex-love, Scott Hendricks.</p>
<p>1)      Scott can’t be trusted to sleep his word.  When the NBA called, he didn’t think twice about breaking his promise to Jenna or his family.</p>
<p>2)      Scott isn’t the same sweet, even-tempered young man that Jenna, a former foster kid, had fallen in love with back in college.  After more than ten years apart, they no longer share the same value system.</p>
<p>3)      Scott doesn’t even look like the handsome, gangly chemistry major that once asked her to marry him.  These days, the rich, savvy businessman is dangerously attractive and packing hard muscle.  There’s no shortage of willing females eager for his attention.  The good natured nineteen-year-old has vanished and has been replaced by a debonair, seasoned womanizer. Even after she’d let him know she’s not interested, he’s determined to get her back into his bed.</p>
<p>4)      Just because he’s back on campus finishing his degree, calling them old friends and volunteering to help her find her family, doesn’t fool Jenna.  Years later neither one of them are the same two kids who once loved deeply.</p>
<p>5)      He’s not undeterred by the new man in Jenna’s life, an attractive college professor with all the qualities she wants in a man.  Why isn’t that enough to keep the bitter-sweet memories at bay?</p>
<p>Reluctantly, Jenna has acknowledged Scott holds both his mother and sister in high esteem and he adores his little niece and nephew.  Plus he has made no secret that he still cares for her and wants her back.  In a weak moment, Jenna agrees to let him help her locate her family.  Now all she has to do is hold on to her common sense and stay out of the man’s bed. Why does he have to be so incredibly sexy and unselfish when it comes to giving pleasure?</p>
<p>What is it about running into an old love that causes a perfectly sensible woman to temporarily lose touch with reality, her heart to race with excitement and her brain to stop functioning properly?</p>
<p><strong>Have you ever had to figure out how you’re going to handle a former love who wants back in the game?  What choice did you end up making?</strong></p>
