Almost
forty-one-year-old Annabelle Morris, wife to multi-billionaire record label
executive Charles Morris of Zenith Productions, and mother of two is at a
crossroads in her life.
Separated
from her husband after walking in on him having sex in the public restroom of a
charity event she was hosting, she has arrived on the island of St. John alone
and rejected, determined to re-evaluate her life and her marriage. She's tired
of being her husband’s showpiece while he pretends she doesn't exist. She's
tired of trying to make their marriage work for the sake of their two teenage
boys.
When she
meets Johnny Lightning, a sexy but mysterious piano-playing, bearded sailor,
she is tempted to break vows she has never before broken. But Johnny is much
younger than her and seems to be hiding more than a few secrets of his own.
From the
laid-back sandy beaches of the Caribbean to the elite circles of Dallas high
society, Annabelle is forced to make critical choices.
Is a
chance for happiness worth the risk of giving up the life she has always known?
Worth
jeopardizing her own and possibly even her children's future?
In the
end, will she stay on her present course or brave a new and uncharted one?
Find Me,
Remember Me, and Keep Me is a full and complete novel in three separate parts.
A
standalone Tempest spin-off.
Excerpt
Are you
Mrs. Morris?” The driver, a heavily bearded man wearing a Quiet Mon Pub ball cap, peered at me through his wraparound
sunglasses. In his late twenties or early thirties, he looked much younger than
I had imagined a caretaker to be.
I nodded
and moved toward the jeep.
“You
ready to go?” He dipped his shaded gaze slowly, sliding it over me. “Or do you
need some more time at the jewelry store so you can find a more expensive watch
with bigger diamonds?”
“No, I’m
ready.” I frowned at the snide comment that implied I was as status conscious
and shallow as all those social-climbers I had such contempt for. It was an
unkind and unwarranted remark. He didn’t really know me. How could he presume
to after only one glance? Then again, I looked at myself every day in the
mirror and hardly knew who I was anymore.
“You’re
late,” he complained. “You’re lucky I decided to swing back by the dock one
more time, especially since the ferry’s been in for over a half hour. Still I
wouldn’t have wanted to miss that fancy dress and the sun reflecting off that
flashy watch of yours. Get in.” He gestured with his chin toward the passenger
side. Moving my bag to one arm, I grabbed the handle and yanked, but the door
wouldn’t open.
“Probably
used to your chauffeur opening the door for you, huh?” He raised his bearded
chin and lifted his shaded eyes to the heavens as if petitioning the island
gods for patience. “It usually works better if you unlock it first, fancy face.
The power feature is broken. You’ll have to do it manually.” His voice was a
low baritone, but the insinuation was as unpleasant as his lack of manners.
I blew
the humidity dampened curls out of my eyes and did as he suggested. “Why even
bother to lock it?” I grumbled once I was in the seat, twisting around to grab
the seatbelt.
“Because
hardly anyone ever sits there,” he answered absently, glancing in the side
mirror. He scanned a quick look for traffic and then pulled away from the curb.
I can certainly understand why, I thought sarcastically as I settled into my seat. He
meticulously steered the vehicle around the busy shopping area alongside the
dock, and I took advantage of his distraction to look him over. He wasn’t bad.
Well, at least from what I could see of his face underneath his untrimmed
beard, thick mustache, and long layers of unkempt midnight black hair barely
contained by the ball cap. He reminded me of Pierce Brosnan. Pierce Brosnan as
James Bond, to be more specific. Well, if I wanted to get really technical
about it, Pierce Brosnan as James Bond in to Die Another Day after he had been captured and tortured for
fourteen months by the North Koreans without the benefit of a hairstylist or a
razor.
In other
words…quite possibly hot.
Maybe.
But who
could tell what was lurking under all that scrunge?
Maybe
instead of Pierce Brosnan, the guy was actually Steve Buschemi. I chanced a
second look to be sure…and felt a delicious, rippling heat along my spine.
Definitely
not Steve Buschemi under there.
