One Heartbeat — K.T. Bowes

"Nothing in the world scared Logan Du Rose but one tiny detail - the things which made his life worth living were the ones he had no earthly way of keeping." A face from the past disturbs Hana's second chance at love, pitching her backwards as her old life bleeds irrevocably into her new start with her Maori husband. Hana is forced to deal with buried hurts and learn that forgiveness is a two part process. When a body is discovered at the school boarding house, a whole heap of trouble is unleashed on the Du Roses, dragging Hana into a dangerous intrigue that almost gets her killed. Who is the mysterious man who remembers Hana's skill as a tennis player and makes her feel alive again? And what will it take for her husband to finally begin telling her the truth? Nobody could have foreseen the dreadful outcome of a harmless day out which will threaten the security of the little Du Rose family forever. And Hana discovers we are all one heartbeat away from eternity.
