Description by Author:
To
the entire world Rick has it all, rock stardom, fame, fortune… but inside he is
burning out.
On
the edge of depression and a breakdown he takes to an isolated shoreside
hideaway and crawls into a bottle.
But

Inevitably
their paths cross, each time getting a little closer, until one day they break
the unseen barrier and speak.

Rick face his own demons?
Past
and future collide in this romantic story of heartache, passions and possible
futures.
About
the Author:
Karen
is a multi-genre author and says she is working her way through as many
different types as she can. "I've written two romantic/suspense novels and
my last book was a thriller, but it is in my short story collections that I'm
able to play with the different genres."
However,
as an avid reader, she admits to not being as adventurous. I prefer my stories
to have a little romance in them, but then romance on its own is not enough.
"Throw in some crime, thriller or something interesting into the plot, I
will jump on it!"
Besides
reading and writing, Karen is an avid book blogger. She reviews every book she
reads, both on her website as well as Goodreads and Amazon and you will often
find her browsing the shelves of Goodreads to see what other people are reading
and doing.
Apart
from books, she loves cross stitching and the fact she is 'retired' now and can
do whatever she wants!
Karen
lives on the beautiful Isle of Anglesey off the North Wales coast. She makes
time to walk every day enjoying both the countryside and the ocean.
