Life's Gateway to Happiness (The Show Me Series: Book 2) Kelly Samuels is dedicated to her career and has received several promotions in her short tenure at Lattice Works. Kelly's family is shocked when she returns home unemployed and without an explanation. Alec Alvarez, a pediatrician from a family full of doctors, is focused solely on his career. He's declared his bachelor status for life and has no desire for love, marriage, or babies. When Alec finds Kelly stuck on the side of a snowy road, neither of them are prepared for the feelings they begin to have for one another. As Kelly and Alec grow closer, he wants to know why the once happy-go-lucky Kelly is hesitant to his touch, while Kelly just wants to find purpose to her life again. After Kelly tells two conflicting stories as to why she lost her job, Alec steps in to discover what truly happened. Can Kelly come to terms with what happened to her and move on with her life? And can Alec love enough to give-up his bachelorhood status for good? Life's Gateway to Happiness is the second book in Anne Stone's The Show Me series.
