The One

Jody Acosta's life was turned upside down the day her father died in a work-related accident. Struggling with her grief, all she can do is immerse herself in her work at the local animal shelter and help her mother while they wait for the settlement from the wrongful death lawsuit.
Nicole Bergeron, the company's representative, is conducting an internal investigation into the accident. She understands the Acosta family's grief, but that doesn't mean the company her father built is automatically responsible for the tragedy.
Jody doesn't know what makes her more furious, that the wealthy Bergeron family refuses to pay for what they did, or that she can't ignore her knee-weakening attraction to Nicole. But she'll need to push aside her anger to work with Nicole to find the truth, about the company, about her father, and about her own heart.

C.A. Popovich, a Michigan native, has worked in the automotive industry for most of her life. During the many layoffs in the unpredictable field, she earned a certificate in dog grooming, an associate's degree in veterinary technology, and worked in maintenance at a condominium complex. She's been working as an AutoCAD operator since 2009 and looks forward to retiring to be able to write full-time. She believes her passion for writing began at birth and has maintained a journal since high school.
Since discovering Bold Strokes Books, and her love of lesbian romance, she's written numerous short stories with happily-ever-after endings. In 2012, she had an article titled "The Choice" published in Sinister Wisdom. It describes her experience on a flight aboard the tiny plane into Provincetown, MA.
She hates spiders, loves to read, write, spend time with her family, and travel to as many BSB events as finances allow.
