Cone of Uncertainty
A Key West Romantic Thriller

 

​Fleeing a violent husband and a dying marriage, Amanda Brougher abandons her life in Nashville.  Driving through the night, she eventually lands in Key West, Florida.  It's here she hopes to find the tranquility needed to restart her life, managing a small island hotel, the Coconut Palm Inn.  But Amanda's plans begin to unravel almost as soon as she arrives.

 

Paul Brougher isn't about to let his wife leave so easily.  As soon as he discovers she's left, Paul embarks on a deluded quest to hunt her down.  Plus, the Coconut Palm's owner has died unexpectedly, leaving Amanda without a job or a place to live.  Her son, Brock Hamilton, is putting the place up for sale.  A veteran U.S. Coast Guard Officer, Brock is trying to come to terms with his own shattered past.

 

Now, with a deadly hurricane barreling toward Key West, and a deranged ex-husband quickly closing-in, two lost souls turn to each other for comfort and security.  A spark ignites and the flames of passion quickly consume them, setting into motion a chain of events that takes both of them on a life-changing journey of danger, intrigue, and self-discovery.

Ninety Degrees at Sunset
A Key West Romantic Thriller
 

When Caitlin Pearce and her four-year-old son, Cody, arrive in Key West, Florida, questions about their past soon arise.  What circumstances have pushed this road-weary family to their tiny island?  What are they running from?  Who are they running from?

 

Keeping to herself as much as possible, Caitlin is determined to carve a new life for the two of them.  A life far better and less perilous than the one she abandoned back in Nashville.  But is that possible?

 

As Caitlin assimilates into her new world, she wrestles with a dark secret that continues to haunt her.  Still, over time she feels comfortable enough to relax her guard, making new friends while forming a romantic bond with local Key West cop, Adam Carter; a man still reeling from the unsolved murder of his wife five years earlier.

 

Caitlin’s new life begins to take shape, but little does she realize that her buried past is quickly catching up with her, leaving a swath of death and heartache in its wake.

 

And there, over one especially hot Key West summer, two wounded souls are locked onto a collision course with destiny, plunging them into a nightmare of horror that will force them to confront past demons if they ever hope to move forward with their lives.
