About this ebook

In 1932, former New York City Fire Captain Jake McCann is appointed fire chief in Woodhill, a small Ohio village. He and his two officers, also from New York City, are haunted by their memories of two tragic events. For Jake the appointment is a chance for him to rebuild his life in the town where his twin brother, a physician, already lives. 

The first person Jake meets upon his arrival is Laura Darvey, a woman married to a local gangster.  In addition to her profession as a nurse, Laura raises Appaloosa horses; inviting Jake to visit her farm sparks his interest in horses and provides an opportunity for Jake and Laura to become more than friends.  When Laura's husband learns of the relationship, he unleashes the fury of Prohibition Era gangsters on both of them.

MEMORIES is a story of recovery, mystery, and a romance that blooms in spite of the forces determined to destroy the lovers.

Author

Laurie Loveman

            Laurie Loveman has always lived in northeast Ohio. She is an author, retired fire department officer, and a former member of the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Technical Committee on Fire and Life Safety in Animal Housing Facilities.  She has a degree in Fire and Safety Engineering Technology from the University of Cincinnati and is a consultant on fire safety in equine facilities.  With a lifetime's experience in the horse industry, Laurie has written many articles for equine and fire service publications, and her novels, set in the 1930s, reflect her interest not just in horses, but also on topics relevant to firefighting today, such as firefighter stress, medical ethics, and arson.   In her spare time Laurie enjoys horseback riding, attending barbershop harmony performances, spending time with family and friends, and researching 1930s history.
