Ein völlig normaler Tag - Bluewater Bay (German)

Gene Caldwell hat sich von der Liebe verabschiedet. Nach zwei schmutzigen Scheidungen und unzähligen gescheiterten Beziehungen ist er mit einundsechzig alleinstehend und hat aufgehört, es mit der Liebe auch nur zu versuchen. Terry Hanson glaubt noch immer an die Liebe, aber nachdem er binnen dreißig Jahren zwei Partner begraben hat, ist er darauf eingestellt, den Rest seines Lebens alleine zu verbringen. Auch wenn seine Nächte kalt sind, weigert er sich, diesen Schmerz ein drittes Mal durchzumachen. Auf dem Hochzeitsempfang eines gemeinsamen Freundes finden die beiden Männer Gemeinsamkeiten in ihrer Einsamkeit und ihrem Zynismus. Sie verbringen den Abend damit, sich gegenseitig zu bemitleiden . und den Rest der Nacht damit, so zu tun, als würden sie sich am nächsten Morgen einfach verabschieden können. Doch sie können es nicht lassen, sich weiter für gemeinsame Nächte zu treffen. Beide bekommen nicht genug von der Berührung des anderen, der Zuneigung, nach der beide ausgehungert sind, und dem Gefühl von Gemeinschaft, nach dem sie sich sehnen, es aber gleichermaßen fürchten. Falls sie ihre jahrzehntealten Mauern niederreißen, riskieren sie ein weiteres Mal ein gebrochenes Herz. Doch falls sie diese Mauern nicht zum Einsturz bringen, entgeht ihnen eine Liebe, die es wert ist, ein halbes Jahrhundert darauf gewartet zu haben. Dieser Roman aus der Reihe Las Palmas Fechtclub mit 103.000 Wörtern ist die Fortsetzung von Der Meister wird erscheinen, kann jedoch unabhängig davon gelesen werden.

Name From a Hat Trick

Jeremy Rose came to Bluewater Bay to work as Anna Maxwell's bodyguard, not to escape his increasingly bitter relationship with his estranged kids. He just wants to focus on his job and be alone for a while. He's done with love, especially now that three years after his long overdue divorce, he's got a front-row seat to the rapid deterioration between Anna and her girlfriend. Cynical doesn't even begin to describe him. Then Anna and Leigh's attempts to reconcile put him in the crosshairs of marriage counselor Scott Fletcher. Scott's exactly what Jeremy needs right now: gorgeous, hot, horny, single, and 100% uninterested in a relationship. The problem is, too much no-strings-attached sex-and too much time in each other's company-inevitably builds emotional connection. Except Jeremy refuses to seek counseling for his broken family, and Scott refuses to get seriously involved with men who work dangerous jobs. They both need to realize they can only hide for so long from the pain they came here to escape. They must face their pasts before they lose their shot at a happy future. This book was previously published.
