This week’s Hook…

“No signal?”

She shook her head and slid back down into a seated position.

And so did he. “So, Mandinka. Named after the eighties hit?”

* * * *

Maddie let out a drawn-out sigh. The comment about her name had followed her for most of her life, especially from her parents’ generation. Yet, it was strange though from someone her own age. She did like her name; after all, her parents had put a lot of thought into it. However, they probably had never even considered the song with the same title.

Meeting his gaze, she began, “No. My dad was into ethnology.” His blank stare told her he had no idea what she was referring to. “Which part is tripping you up? Ethnology or the connection to the name?”

Blurb

In an unexpected encounter, the lives of Jonah, a rescue diver from New Zealand, and Maddie, a spirited local, collide, forever altering their future.

Trapped together in a hotel lift, sparks fly between them, but Jonah’s past looms, casting a shadow over their fragile connection. Maddie, captivated by Jonah’s charisma, is determined to find him when he mysteriously misses their planned dinner. With a friend’s assistance, her search unveils a chilling discovery – Jonah unconscious on a cliff.

Navigating a sea of emotions, in order to find a future together, will Maddie and Jonah manage the challenges posed by their past secrets and present obstacles?

The current situation, however, was a necessity, and he’d make sure to see it that way. Not that he was interested in her anyway. He liked his women blonde and tall.

Yet, something about Molly intrigued him, drew him in, and it bugged the hell out of him that he wasn’t able to figure out what it was.

“Molly?”

Her head popped around the corner from his old bedroom, looking at him. “I’m sorry, but I couldn’t stand the smell in the house much longer.”

He nodded. “No problems. I’ll be in the kitchen starting the breakfast.” Then paused for a moment. “Will you take that room?”

A worried expression spread across her face. “Will that be okay?”

He choked back a chuckle. “Yup. I’m not that eager to move back into my old bedroom. I’ll take Grandma’s craft room.”

“What about the master bedroom?”

“There’s no way in hell I’ll sleep in the same bed as my grandmother did for over half a century.”

He heard her laugh as he disappeared into the kitchen.

“She bought the bed only a few months ago,” she shouted from down the hall.

Still didn’t convince him. The thought of staying in his grandmother’s room, whether it would be the old or a new bed, gave him hives.

Blurb

Confronted with the choice to care for his friend’s family on the other side of the world or to return to Alinta Bay to be with his own newfound family, how will Noah choose?

Following the death of his grandmother, Noah Fielding returns to Alinta Bay and the first thing — or person — he finds is the next-door neighbour in his nan’s bathroom — naked no less. Still jetlagged, he doesn’t hit it off with Molly at first. Yet, over the next few weeks, as his past uncovers itself bit by bit, she becomes is anchor, his friend, and his lover.

Molly Reid had the world at her feet, happily married with a young son … until a tragic car accident took everything away from her. With her heart broken, she moves to Alinta Bay to escape the memories of the past. Her peaceful existence, however, is interrupted after a heavy storm floods her house and she temporarily moves into her recently deceased neighbour’s house next door.

When Noah’s friend and partner goes missing during a routine flight, Noah returns to Alaska to help, but will he come back for Molly?

This week’s Hook …

Though the connection was iffy, with static breaking their words Jonah got the gist of the message.

“I’ve dispatched a team. They should reach you in about fifteen minutes. Will you both be okay?”

“Could you please send Jack?” Maddie asked as she rose back to her feet again. “I’m sure he can get us out of here.”

After a brief pause, the voice responded, “No Jack here, Maddie. Are you certain he’s part of our team?”

Jonah couldn’t contain his laughter at her movie reference again, and Maddie shook her head with some amusement as well.

“Never mind.” Her words carrying a hint of resignation, yet a soft smile lingered on her lips.

“Alright, team, I’m signing off. But I’ll keep you updated as soon as I have any information. Stay calm, don’t panic, and we’ll have you out of there soon.”

Jonah nodded and rubbed his hands over his face. He was fine, accustomed to confined spaces. After all, as a diver, he did that all the time, yet he was also aware of how quickly people’s reactions could change under stress. He watched as Maddie pulled out her phone again, holding it up.

Today’s Snippet

Sighing, he reminded himself he’d left that chapter of his life behind and as he closed the door on his painful thoughts, he was thankful something else shifted his attention. Something that put a smile on his lips.

Pulled by curiosity, he listened to the noise from the back of the house — Molly humming quietly to some pop song.

It hit home with him that he’d never shared a house with a woman. He pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and forefinger wondering why he’d suggested the arrangement. There was no shortage of women in his life. Once the braces had come off when he’d been seventeen, it’d been another year before he’d left for the U.S. and another six months before he’d had his eyes fixed surgically. And after that, he had received lots of female attention.

And he’d never regretted it. He’d loved the women, and they loved him, but never did he let them come in or stay at his house. A relationship was not on his agenda. And he liked it that way. There’d been too many women in his life who had either disappointed him or he had been disheartened by them — mainly his mother and grandmother. He had no intentions of dealing with that stuff again. He listened again

This week’s Hook …

Some static noise followed from the panel. “Maddie, this isn’t about sexism. I needed to talk to Jonah as well. It’s not only about finding out what can be done but also understanding your mental state.”

She blew out a frustrated sigh and slouched her shoulders. “I know you’re right, and I do apologise. I just feel so helpless.”

Jonah winked at her. “Let’s tackle this together.”

A smile spread across her flushed face. They both approached the doors, attempting to grip them from opposite sides.

“Okay,” he said. “One, two, three.”

Both put some effort into pulling the doors apart, but to no avail. Placing his hands on his knees, he drew a few breaths to steady himself as he watched Maddie slide down the wall into a seated position.

“How are you coping?”

She nodded. “Never been big on exercises.”

Letting out a soft laugh, he turned to the panel. “Mate, you’re still there?”

“Wouldn’t dare to leave you.”

“No luck with the doors, I’m afraid.”

But had he? Of course he hadn’t. Otherwise being in the house with an attractive woman would excite him instead of causing his emotions to go haywire. Rememberinghow often he’d come home from school in tears because of all the nasty things he’d been told, not coping with the teasing by the other children, the degrading by the teachers, or the laughter from the girls made his stomach churn. He’d been the ugly kid in the neighbourhood. And he’d hated it.

Shit!

He didn’t want to relive his past, he wanted to forget about the braces and thick glasses, but also the fact that he’d lived with his grandmother because his mother had run off with some French guy and he had no idea about his father.

This week’s Hook …

“May I speak with him?”

Maddie turned to Jonah, her eyebrows raised. He hitched a shoulder in question as well but stepped closer to the control panel.

“I’m here.”

“Thanks. Could you try to manually open the doors?”

Jonah thought of it as an odd request, but before he could respond, Maddie piped up, “You do know this is a bit sexist, right? You could have asked me that question too.”

Of all the people, he had to be stuck with someone who walked the path of political correctness. However, Jonah chose to remain silent, not wanting to engage in this particular conversation. Instead, he gestured towards the doors. “Be my guest.”
