In the Works **just released - April 2009**
ISBN: 9780982285848
Civil
Engineer Anne Schneider and her business partner, Patrick
Ford, are struggling to make their new business enterprise,
Clearly Perfect Water Systems, successful. They land a contract
for a major project involving tainted wastewater from the
Big Tree Paper Plant near the tiny town of Wood Mill, southeast
of San Francisco. The job requires Anne to be on site for
six months, under the watchful eye of Adehm Trent, an executive
from the plant's corporate headquarters in Detroit.
Anne
takes on the job, despite the fact that it takes her away
from her parents in Albuquerque. Her mother's health is
failing badly, and her father relies on Anne to help with
her care. Confident she can handle both her personal and
her professional responsibilities, Anne heads to Wood Mill,
ready to prove to Mr. Trent that Clearly Perfect Water Systems
is equal to the task at hand.
One
tiny problem... Mr. Trent is really Ms. Trent, and not only
that, but she's drop-dead gorgeous to boot, not to mention
a demanding employer.
Anne
and Adehm find their way to workable relationships, both
as colleagues and as something much more satisfying - until
Anne's mother's condition deteriorates, forcing Anne to
choose between fulfilling her obligations to Adehm and Big
Tree and returning to Albuquerque to help her parents.
In
the aftermath of Anne's choice, Adehm must face old demons
that have haunted her for years. Like Anne, she too must
decide what really matters in her life.
Everything
was going so well, but now both Anne and Adehm have to contend
with serious derailments of their plans. What will happen
to their goals and dreams that were In the Works?
