This book NEEDS to be made into a movie. It has all the right parts for multiple audiences. It also includes different nationalities and family dynamics. Hashim and Caroline's story is full of adventure and travel. Espionage and intrigue. It involves the government, privet sector, and high-tech software. Dawes (pub 2020) tells much of the same details but from Hashim's bodyguard and sees everything. Together, the details of the story are played out. I see this as an action-packed movie with plenty of romance on the side. Southern charm, sweet tea, and Tater Tots™ mixed with a hint of international espionage and romance. Hashim is a man with a mysterious past. H is handsome, but his intensity and intelligence both captivate and frighten our heroine. C must choose between the comfortable life she knows and the uncertain future with a man she just met. Whichever path she chooses, C knows that her life will never be the same. How long would you be willing to sacrifice your love for duty? Dawes has watched over and protected his asset for 3 years while secretly loving Sefa, his asset’s sister. Their whirlwind affair requires discretion and caution and only allows them to be their authentic selves when they are alone, in remote locations. Their trysts take them to numerous places around the globe. As his love for Sefa grows, Dawes finds it increasingly difficult to carry on their duplicitous affair. What will it take for Dawes to choose love over career?

When she’s not writing, she’s watching movies, listening to audiobooks, knitting, quilting, or crocheting, all the while playing great music in the background like a soundtrack.
