Audrey Sawyer and Jonathan Dawson met when she was in kindergarten, and he was a second grader who protected her from the class bully. They became awkward friends until he moved on to junior high. Their lives did not intersect again until they were young adults when they saw each other at a market, never recognizing each other, but both froze as their hearts remembered the heart of the other. Frightened by the moment, both let the chance encounter evaporate, but neither could forget the meeting. Years passed; Audrey and Jonathan met three more times, but neither realized they were the lost loves of the enchanting encounter in the grocery store. Then, finally, Clair, a long-time friend-girl of Jonathan, decided she wanted to change her status to girlfriend, an innocent paradox for three would-be lovers. A Simple Act of Kindness is the story of love accidentally found, then hopelessly lost, perhaps forever. The reader is treated to an affectionate roller coaster ride of love and friendship with no end in sight. Then, finally, Jonathan and Audrey become romance-less best friends requiring a bit of heavenly assistance. The awkward friendship that was supposed to make them emotionally safe creates a confusing hunger for each other that both reject. Finally, a staged kiss forces the relationship to change, and now both are in romance’s death grip, unable to escape and neither wanting to. Will this be Cupid’s first loss?
