About this ebook

Tough, sassy, New York City homicide detective Megan Armstrong has fought her way to the top. Taking on the challenges of being a first rate homicide detective has sent her down a road that has made her question her core beliefs and will change her life forever. Can she survive in the horrific aftermath? The hardships will make her stronger, and though she has many friends and family who will support her, does she have the strength to stand on her own two feet when she needs to?

Polished and shrouded in an air of mystery, unwanted partner, Edward Southwood is bound to be a barrel of trouble. Sure of where his life is headed, he isn't ready for the sparks that ignite between himself and his new partner. When the situation becomes a hindrance, he hightails it back "Across the Pond" to gather his thoughts. When she shows up in his office terrified for her life and asking for his help, he sets aside his feelings and immediately comes to her aid.

Mayhem, murder, and intrigue follow these two unlikely companions from New York City, USA to Cardiff, Wales. Can they survive it and come to grips with the deep emotions that neither of them wants to acknowledge they harbor, or will this tear their friendship apart? Only time and patience will tell

I am published here on Smashwords, on Inkit, Free-ebooks, Mytopia, Overdrive, and all over the world. The mark of a good author isn't just how many books they write, or publish. It's all about how good what they publish is. If the readers can come back and read the author again. Even if it's a different book, then the author is doing something right. That is my goal, not cookie cutter stories, that are boring and pat. So please take a look at what I have.
