Ava's Prize
Cari Lynn Webb

He needs a great idea. She can provide it–but at what cost? The battle lines are drawn when Army medic-turned-paramedic Ava Andrews enters a contest devised by San Francisco entrepreneur Kyle Quinn. She isn’t just competing for a tempting grand prize. She’s fighting her attraction to the self-made millionaire... and losing the war.

He needs a great idea

She can provide it—but at what cost?

The battle lines are drawn when army medic turned EMT Ava Andrews enters a contest devised by San Francisco entrepreneur Kyle Quinn. The first responder isn’t just competing for a tempting grand prize. She’s fighting her attraction to the self-made millionaire...and losing the war. But private and professional boundaries blur when a breach of trust threatens Ava’s future with Kyle.

CARI LYNN WEBB lives in South Carolina with her husband, daughters and assorted four-legged family members. She’s been blessed to see the power of true love in her grandparents’ seventy-year marriage and her parents’ marriage of over fifty years. She knows love isn’t always sweet and perfect—it can be challenging, complicated and risky. But she believes happily-everafters are worth fighting for.
