Living Canvas, Karla Brandeburg
I think I would say this was a romantic mystery. In the begining we meet Audrey MacDougall as she is fearing a pink slip from her arrogant ‘s new boss. Braeden Templeton is cleaning house and to make matters worse, Audrey gets a feeling and starnage signals about him. She tried to Google him and discovers that more than 20 years before he was implicated in the death or disappearance of Cameron “Cammy” Hughes. Audrey meets Templeton and feels he is a “person of interest” in the disappearance of a Cammy 20 years ago.
Greg Ellison is a man on the train she meets ion Scotland. He comes from the states, she feels connected to him immediately but doesn’t really understand it. They talk and they are from Chicago, Elk Grove, wow neighbors. She could not shake the connection, to her surprise, Greg could not either. They go on a few dates and when things heat up either she backs off or he does. After talking about his photography and her job as an event coordinator they talk about their “dream” of a Bed and Breakfast. He gives Audrey a chance to share the dream and start a new joint venture. Audrey just cant commit. She is fearful of his wife who passed away and the fact that he has two sons. Se makes her pro and con list and still with the help of Cinda can’t decide.
Several chance meetings occur and Greg speaks of a future. Her best friend Cinda is mixed up in her fiance and his dealings with this Templeton guy and the culmination of terror, mystery and love unfolds. The intuition she has is so strong and he feels it too and uses it in the end.
What I loved about this was the steam was there but not over the top. I fell in love with Greg when they were in Florida and were getting close to making love he stopped. He told her that she has a few drinks and they should think this over and talk the next day. How romantic is that? I can’t give any reveals but, I say read it, you will definitely enjoy!
