| Publisher Description: A captivating, contemporary novel .Tammy finds herself alone in South Africa, with two children to raise. When her farm manager and his wife are hijacked and murdered on the way to deliver their second child, Tammy is made legal custodian of Megan. When her working relationship with Nigel suddenly ended, she immigrated to Italy. Just when her life is settling down, she is informed that Nigel is a wanted man, and he begins to threaten Tammy; during which time her close friend Fabio goes missing. While they are under two weeks of police protection outside of Italy, Nigel is apprehended outside of their old house. Tammy uses some of her inherited diamonds to set herself up a small business empire in Portofino. The family dynamics change substantially but not without drama. "Tammy heard the motorbike the moment she felt it. The next thing she knew, she was waking up in a hospital ward in Genoa. It took her a while to fathom out where she was, and then she tried to piece together what had happened. She had a bandage around her right elbow and her left leg was splinted. No matter how hard she tried to focus, she could not re-call the incident that had caused her to be here. "Hi sister, please can you help me? Why am I here? What happened?" "Morning Mrs Browning. You got hit by a motorbike two days ago. You were walking with your son. He is fine, and with your mother. You have a fractured leg. As soon as the swelling has subsided a bit, they will put a cast on. And you have stitches in your elbow. Here is my cell phone, please call your husband. His instructions as soon as you are awake!" Tammy dialled Paul's number. It rang for twenty seconds before he picked up the call. "Dr Browning speaking good day." "Babe. I am awake, the sister said I was to call you." "Hello love, how you feeling? I have a patient waiting for me, I will see you in a short while. Love you, so glad you are awake at last!" "OK love you, see you later." Tammy returned the phone to the sister and dozed off again. When she next opened her eyes, it was to feel Paul stroking her face. "Love what happened? I don't remember a thing?" "According to the motorcyclist, he lost control of his bike and hit you. David was not injured. Henry heard the impact, and ran out to see you lying on the road. He called me straight away, and I called the helicopter ambulance. And here you are. Fortunately, the fracture in your leg is not too bad, it will take some time to heal, and is going to keep you at home for a week or three. I have no doubt you will get the hang of the crutches though. We will have to sleep downstairs for a while, and I will be the runner for clothes and stuff." "Dang. That is not cool, I am so busy at-the-moment!" |
