Would you sacrifice your lifelong dream for a shot in the dark?
Leo Hathaway is often described in the music business as intense, focused and driven. He was given his first guitar at seven years old and spent his teenage years locked in his room, honing his craft. At twenty-five, he’s a highly sought-after session musician who travels the world with some of the industry’s best.
He’s also having a quarter-life crisis. Desperate to rediscover his passion for music – and life – he carves eight weeks out of his crazy schedule, rents a house that looks like it’s slipping into the sea and immerses himself in his work. Between his guitar and his soul are the songs that he hopes will save him.
But with salvation comes sacrifice, and Gemma Davis is the one thing that could stand between Leo and his goal. Ignoring your heart is a risky move but turning your back on your dreams is something else entirely. Suddenly, Leo finds himself having to choose between the future he’s always wanted and the only woman who’s ever made him question it.
The clock is ticking.
(Synergy is the third standalone novel in the Absolution series).
Amanda Dick is a night-owl, coffee addict, movie buff and music lover. She loves to do DIY, believes in love at first sight, in women's intuition and in following your heart. She is rather partial to dark chocolate and believes in the power of a good vanilla latte.
What lights her fire is writing stories about real people in trying situations. She is insanely curious about how we, as human beings, react when pushed to the edge. Most of all, she enjoys writing about human behaviour - love, loss, joy, grief, friendship and the complexity of relationships in general.
After living in Scotland for five years, she has now settled back home in New Zealand, where she lives with her husband and two children.
