Hiding Rose
Having witnessed another of his colleagues marry, Barnaby Stephenson is left to ponder the wisdom of his own choices in life. The last thing he needs is to have to babysit the Star Elite’s primary witness of the murders of two of London’s most hardened criminals. Tasked with hiding Rosemary ‘Rose’ Higginbotham, Barnaby quickly realises that this seemingly delicate flower has a hidden side to her, especially when their lives are threatened. When they find themselves hunted, their fight to keep Rose free of Sayers’ clutches takes them from the south of the country to the north. With each move, Barnaby finds himself losing another piece of his heart. This time, though, not even the safe houses and the support of his colleagues from the Star Elite can keep them safe. When they are cornered, Barnaby and Rose find themselves fighting for more than their lives. They battle for a future together. Left with no alternative but to put into action the Star Elite’s most audacious plan yet, Barnaby’s determination to keep Rose hidden may well lead him to capture not only London’s most notorious criminal mastermind but his very own bride.

About the author
Rebecca King
234 books101 followersI live in Leicestershire in the United Kingdom where I currently spend my time reading, anything and everything, but mostly books about Cornish smuggling, ghosts and mysteries (Mmmm, I think there is a story there somewhere!)
My love for books has grown throughout my life, fed by my relentless daydreaming. As a child I was always told by my teachers that I daydreamed too much. As an adult, I frequently find myself reading and mentally re-writing the stories, when I read something and feel it could have been done better.
Several people have asked me what inspired me to start writing. Well, I was haunted! Literally. I had a story that just wouldn't leave me. It kept going around and around in my mind, being the first thing I thought of when I woke up, and the last thing I thought about before I went to sleep. I was driven to get the ideas down on paper, initially in a rough draft. But still the stories in my head wouldn't leave me and I soon found myself embellishing my notes and turning them into a book. Thus the Cavendish Mysteries was born. As a working mum, I spent my evenings when the children were tucked up in bed tapping away on my laptop. I still do, and find the 'muse' flows better at night without the constant interruptions of, 'mum, can I have', and 'mum, I'm hungry'.
As soon as I started writing the words flew onto the screen, and I found I couldn't stop. More and more stories came forth and I knew I had to remain true to my dream and turn my passion for writing stories into a job.
It has been a long and very bumpy road, but I do sincerely hope the stories I write bring people pleasure.
I do believe everything in life is a learning journey, put before us to enrich us as we travel life's pathway. I try to learn from all feedback received, and fully appreciate that one cannot please everyone all of the time. There will be people who love my books; in turn there will be people who hate them, but I hope that the majority of people love them.

I enjoyed this story and the plot behind it. I like the characters of Barnaby and Rose and how they interact. The wandering around in the darkness in the middle of nowhere is very similar to some of her previous plots! However some of the adventures theses two have are quite funny!

Another brilliant read
from this author. Characters come alive with an excellent storyline. Rebecca's books are never boring and am always on the watch for her next one.
