No More Rain Please

DI Peter Shaw works in the shadow of his late father, a legend of the North Norfolk police force. A recent accident cost him the sight in one eye. Methodical, principled, and forensic to the core, he loathes the slapdash instinct and rule-breaking habits of old-fashioned coppers.

Which makes his new partner a problem.

DS George Valentine is exactly the kind of policeman Shaw can’t stand. He trusts gut instinct over procedure, enjoys a drink or three, and smokes like a chimney. What’s worse, he was once partner to Shaw’s late father.

Now Shaw and Valentine must learn to work together, and quickly.

Eight cars are stranded nose-to-tail on a gravel road in Norfolk’s Siberia Belt, trapped by the snow and a fallen tree. Shaw and Valentine arrive to check on the motorists, expecting frayed tempers and a long night ahead.

Instead, they find a man dead at the wheel of his truck — viciously stabbed, with no sign of struggle.

And his killer has achieved the impossible: striking without being seen, and without leaving a single footprint in the snow.

When the truth cost her everything, she thought there was nothing left to lose. Mikayla Gordon loves nothing more than sleeping under the stars, reeling in the “big one,” and long hikes in the wilderness. A medical crisis reveals a 30-year-old secret that turns everything she’s known and believed upside down, unraveling her dreams and her identity. In search of answers, she follows a trail from Minnesota to Colorado and discovers more unwelcome secrets even as she falls in love with the majestic beauty of the Rocky Mountains, and a wilderness camp leader who shares the greatest secret of all. Knowing her life can never go back to what it was, she must make decisions that will impact far more than just her future.

When the male model meets the female mechanic, get ready for a thunderbolt!

Sloane

When you’re told you’re the ugly duckling, you learn to set your expectations low. So what do I do when Caleb Robinson, a gorgeous model, offers to buy me a drink? I turn him down flat. It must be a prank.

Two days later, I’m working at the garage in my dirty blue coveralls with grease smudged on my face, and he shows up to ask again. I’m floored. What’s this guy up to? Men like him don’t date girls like me.

Caleb

I’m in full-on pursuit of the coolest woman ever, who’s destined to be my wife — Sloane Murray. Dad always said that’s how it happened for him. He proposed to Mom on their first date. I never believed love could happen so quickly, until now.

Slowly but surely, I convince Sloane of my sincerity, and our future has hope until I bring her into my modeling world. Problem is, she doesn’t fit. And when my career takes off, it’s clear that I can’t pursue the big dream and my dream girl. If only love were as simple as that first thunderbolt.
