I’d like to introduce you today to one of my books which is set in Australia and New Zealand ~ THEIR BOND THROUGH JADE Today’s snippet is in Tiffany’s POV. ENJOY ♥
Leaning her head against the door, Tiffany took a deep breath to steady herself.
“Are you okay, Miss Cahill?” Harris asked.
“Please open the door,” Jones requested.
Holding up her hand, Tiffany replied, “I haven’t seen him since last year. I have nothing to do with whatever trouble he’s in.” Her entire body trembled, anxiety rushing through her like a tidal wave. She took another two deep breaths before standing straight to meet Harris’ gaze.
He searched her eyes before he assented with a nod and held out a business card. “We need to talk to you. I can assure you you’re not in trouble, but we need your help.” He squeezed the card into the small gap of the doorframe. “This is my number. Please call in when you have somebody with you, and we can have a talk.”
When Tiffany Cahill opens the door to the police, memories of the past return to haunt her. She calls her friend Steve for help, only to be surprised by the voice of a stranger on the other end of the line. She never anticipates the impact this New Zealander is going to have on her life, even more so when she becomes the victim of an assault just a few hours later.
Mat Apanui, owner of a helicopter tour company in New Zealand, can hear the urgency and despair in Tiffany’s voice. They have never met before, but he feels compelled to help her. After an assault on her, he invites her to travel with him to his home in Queenstown, New Zealand, where he believes he can provide her with the temporary safety and security she needs until the situation is resolved.
But can Tiffany overcome her reservations and trust a stranger like Mat enough to fly across the Tasman Sea?

You had me at New Zealand!
Yeah – a lot of my readers say that 🙂 I hope you’ll get the chance to read the story one day 😉
The detective is very discerning to tell her to call when she has someone else with her. That’s going to help her, I hope, be able to cope with what’s going on.
She’s a very strong character 😉 But “Kiwi” help is on the way 😀
“We need to talk to you. I can assure you you’re not in trouble, but we need your help.” relief she’s not in trouble – but what do they need help with? I wonder which emotion she felt more, relief, or a new anxiety? Great snippet!
Ha, you will need to read the book to find out 😉 Thanks Adriana. Much appreciated ♥
I may have mentioned it before, but I’m the kind of person who gets nervous about being pulled over for a taillight out. I wouldn’t want to be in Tiffany’s boots. Tweeted.
She’s a strong one … and has a good support group 😉 Thanks Cara.
She is having some type of memory about him.
Not good ones! 😉 Thanks Jeff.
