Evie
Taylor is a highly-paid detective who works all over the world. She has broken
off contact with her family, who disapprove of her, and takes lovers who don’t
expect commitment. Evie is not one of the “people who need people”. The only
gap in the defences around her heart is a secret passion for a sexy superstar
as unattainable as the moon, even though she does wear the gold bracelet he
gave her and never, ever, removes it.
Michael
Marsh, The Diamond Superstar, has retired from show business and is bored and
lonely, and he hasn’t forgotten the girl who clinched the case against his
beloved wife’s killer. He persuades Evie to move in with him, only to have an
attack of conscience about the age gap and a young woman’s natural desire for
children.
The
stand-off ends when Evie is taken to hospital hovering between life and death
and her mother doesn’t want to know. Michael loves Evie and will move heaven
and earth to keep her, but if she recovers will she forgive the secrets of his
past? Not all Michael’s offspring are what the media, and particularly a
journalist known as The Spy, have been expected to believe.
Teenage
Greta, jealous of the time her father spends at the hospital with Evie, joins
an adult chatroom in search of a boyfriend. The contact she makes is a sex-trafficker,
and he offers Greta independence, fame, fortune, and freedom from school
bullies. A tempting cocktail of bait for a girl whose life is ruled by an
over-protective father and his bodyguards.
“Michael Marsh and his unconventional family have long suffered the consequences
of his disastrous relationship with his eldest daughter. Life is complicated
further by Evie, Michael’s new love after two lonely years. When Evie falls
desperately ill, he is left fighting a media troll who wishes to destroy him
and his family, and an evil future mother-in-law, while trying to save the life
of the women he loves.”
