Charlotte ‘Charli’ Gilmore is a beautifully young talented aerial artist and newly graduated elementary schoolteacher. Before embarking on her teaching career fulltime, Charli flies to Bordeaux, France with her friends where she performs her final routine with the acrobatic troupe – The Amazing Lawsons.
Roman Knight is a devastatingly handsome and compellingly charming businessman who owns the chateau Charli’s troupe is performing at. Roman – a man who is more enigmatic than the Bermuda Triangle – is also used to getting what he wants – even if he has to resort to deception in obtaining it. And from the moment Roman lays eyes on Charli, he wants her.
Their first meeting is an explosive event, which eventually leads to a brief but intensely passionate affair, where the normally reserved Charli finds herself falling for the charismatic businessman.
Unknowingly, a twisted web of deceit and manipulation follows Charli over two continents, through three countries and across the United States.
Spiraling Deception is book one of the Alumni of the Phoenix Series. Each book is a stand-alone book and there are no cliffhangers.
I live on the Gold Coast, Australia with my ever patient, supportive hubby of too many years to count along with our grown children and gorgeous grandchildren. I work full time and my job takes me all over the country and often the world, which is a great thing because I love to travel almost as much as I love to read. But most of all, I have an insatiable passion for writing, bringing characters to life, telling their stories and creating their worlds.
