Shadows of the Past |
|
Franc Jellic is ambitious, but
unlike his father Milo, a bent cop who took his own life, everything he
does is above board and legal, done by the sweat of his brow and the
brilliance of his mind.
He's a workaholic, but it's summer break time Down Under and his employer as well as brother in law, Rowan McQuaid Stanhope, LOVE UNDER FIRE has ordered him to take the time off. He's a guy with time on his hands, then he meets Maria. She's a woman with a mission - to front up to the man she believes is stalking her, Randy Searle. With that in mind, she gatecrashes Stanhope Electronics Christmas party. But all's fair in love and war, and Franc can tell at a glance that Randy isn't the kind of guy Maria should be hanging around with. He makes it his mission to remove Randy from the party before Maria can find him. Franc has twelve empty days ahead of him that he intends to spend with Maria. How can he know this brief summer fling might last the rest of his life? |
