De auteur heeft een lange weg afgelegd naar het schrijven, waarbij ze al op zesjarige leeftijd gedichten schreef en romans begon te schetsen. Na meer dan vijftien jaar als advocaat te hebben gewerkt, besloot ze het schrijven een echte kans te geven en een van haar vele verhalen te voltooien. Haar werk put waarschijnlijk uit een diepgaand begrip van de menselijke natuur, ontwikkeld tijdens haar juridische carrière, en biedt unieke inzichten in de complexiteit van het leven. Als liefhebber van koffie, chocolade en dieren, weerspiegelt haar schrijven een passie voor verhalen vertellen en een vermogen om de essentie van de menselijke ervaring vast te leggen.
Our purely physical though exclusive relationship works for both of us. She is a sought after talent agent and I work in private security. The schedules we keep don't lend themselves to long term relationships. Until we both realize we want to make us work. The moment we decide to take a chance on us, our pasts creep into the present. Can I secure our present or will our pasts crush any chance we have on a future together?
Years ago my brothers were injured while serving our country. During their time in hospital, one of their unit mates and I grew close. At one point, I thought he might even ask me out, but it never happened. It made sense, we both have careers and live in different states. We've seen one another a few times a year at family and military functions since then, but neither one of us is able or willing to leave our careers. The tension and longing is impossible to miss, but we continue to fight it until I decide to put myself on the line. I knock on his door on a national holiday and hope for the best. What follows is a twisted route to happily ever after including car chases, stolen paintings, and divulging skills my brothers taught me to protect both of us. The Blackthorne Security series are standalone romances with interconnecting characters. Each novel focuses on one couple (no cliffhangers!) and can be read in any order, but but for maximum enjoyment it is recommended they are read starting with book one.
