Hayden Glass is on the fast track to making detective with the LAPD, but first he’s got to work his way through Vice. But as any cop can attest, you can’t leave your work at the office, and with Hayden’s cursed and troubled past, his soul is not in the best shape. His marriage is on the rocks and he’s carries a deep guilt and anger that nothing can seem to quench. Until one day he finds something that can make it all go away.
That's the set-up for today's latest addition to our Free Book listings, a short story that sets the stage for Stephen Jay Schwartz’s Los Angeles Times bestselling debut novel, Boulevard
, and its follow-up, Beat
...
But first, a word from ... Today's Sponsor
The futility of war . . . An invisible, indiscriminate enemy, striking without mercy . . . Hearts broken, then restored and sustained by love . . . A story of two worlds—one at war on the Western Front, the other grappling with an unseen adversary at home.
If you enjoyed Hemingway's A Farewell to Arms
, you'll love the way novelist Alexis Harrington adds duplicity, treachery, and the ultimate betrayal to the mix
(Ed. Note: Historical romance writer Alexis Harrington already has built a loyal following of prolific Kindle Store ebook readers for her ten terrific Kindle Store reads, and she's bound to expand her readership further this weekend by using this Planet iPad sponsorship to let you know that Amazon is now discounting her popular novel Home By Morning
to just $2.39! -S.W.)
Here's the set-up:
In October 1918, Dr. Jessica Layton stops in her hometown of Powell Springs, Oregon, on her way to a new position at Seattle General Hospital. She has stopped to visit her sister Amy, now being courted by Cole Braddock, the man Jess once expected to marry. But before she can escape the heartache of seeing him again, the influenza epidemic that is ravaging the world comes to town. With no other doctor available, she must stay to care for the patients who are falling ill in alarming numbers. She also must deal with Cole, the love of her childhood, who broke his promise to wait for her to finish her medical training.
Cole Braddock isn’t happy to see Jessica. Her promises to return home after medical school proved to be as insubstantial as mist. He’s sure that Amy Layton, sweet and domestic, is the right woman for him. With his brother fighting in the trenches of France, he’s busy operating the family horse farm and supplying mounts to the Allied Forces. He assumes he won’t have to see much of Jessica. But time and again their paths cross when they are faced with duplicity, treachery, and the ultimate betrayal.
