Summary

Une médecin hautement qualifiée a sauvé la vie et la santé mentale de Cooper, tout en lui volant son cœur par la même occasion.

Être un SEAL est la raison de vivre de Cooper, mais ce n’est pas seulement son devoir qui le pousse à agir lorsque la praticienne qui l’a miraculeusement ramené à la vie est enlevée. Il est le premier à se porter volontaire pour la sauver.

Le Dr Sasha Childs consacre sa vie à aider les autres. Découvrir que son mari couchait avec sa meilleure amie a renforcé sa volonté d’indépendance et son envie de se concentrer sur la pratique de la médecine. Désabusée, elle cesse de croire au véritable amour et décide de mettre ses compétences au service d’un camp de réfugiés syriens qui a désespérément besoin d’une aide médicale. Elle n’est pas du tout consciente du danger qui rôde autour d’elle et ne réalise que trop tard qu’elle n’était pas aussi en sécurité qu’elle le pensait, lorsqu’elle est enlevée par des terroristes.

Cooper a eu fort à faire pour sauver Sasha des mains étrangères qui la retenaient captive et la ramener saine et sauve chez elle. Quand le danger se présente de nouveau à sa porte, la garder en sécurité une seconde fois devient pratiquement impossible. Alors qu’il se considère chanceux d’avoir échappé à la mort, il se rend compte qu’il a besoin d’un autre miracle afin que la femme dont il est tombé amoureux ne devienne pas un peu plus qu’une victime supplémentaire de la guerre.

Once she’d returned, her stepcousin, Matt Kincaid, only complicated matters. Matt demanded that she stay on at the ranch, under his watchful eye. But Catherine had a job offer waiting for her in New York City. There was only one thing that could keep her on a dusty cattle ranch in Texas—the love of the rangiest cowboy in the Lone Star State!

    From the New York Times–bestselling author of The Forever Year, a “poignant” novel about best friends in crisis (Long and Short Reviews). Rich Flaster and Eric Dazman—aka Flash and Dazzle—have been friends since their college days, and they remain as tight as ever as their work starts attracting praise and attention in the advertising industry. Now Rich is being wooed by a high-profile agency in downtown Manhattan—but they have no interest in hiring his creative partner. Before Rich can bring himself to tell his best friend about the job offer, Eric receives a far more devastating piece of news: an upsetting medical diagnosis. His shy, beautiful sister arrives to give him support, and Rich is faced with an emotional challenge. He’s deceived his friend—however, there are a lot of things Eric hasn’t shared with him either. Suddenly, breaking up this two-man team takes on a more painful meaning—and, with time a precious commodity, Flash and Dazzle have to get past the superficial and connect on a deeper level.Flash and Dazzle is a story of men who have known the best of times as they come to grips with the worst of times, and of the friends and lovers who enter their orbit in relationships both brief and enduring. It is a story of legacies, burdens, and the kinds of secrets that are only revealed when there’s nothing left to tell. Funny, moving, and honest, it will inspire you to call everyone you care about and thank them for what they’ve given you. “A master storyteller. . . . He stirs emotions and senses that bring tears and laughter.” —Long and Short Reviews “A dynamic contemporary novel . . . fully engaging and worthwhile reading. Lou Aronica is a talented writer who uses subtlety rather than explicit description to depict the normalcy, quirkiness and fluctuations of honest characters.” —Crystal Book Reviews “Rich Flaster and Eric Dazman are so real; the reader will feel like they are part of the duo’s close knit friends.” —Literarily Illumined
