After surviving her darkest hour, it was time for Noelle Thibodeaux to shake off the cobwebs of her previous life. She’d spent the last year as a glorified travel agent for the band her cousin managed, Eton Mess. Now Nile Thomas, the band’s frontman, is in dire need of a personal assistant. He can think of no one better than Noelle for the job. When her cousin calls and offers her the job, she jumps at the chance to pack her bags and make a fresh start. Nile is impressed with how easily Noelle slips into her role, managing everything for him. But his tortured artist persona wears on her fragile and frayed emotions and their working relationship is less than ideal. Only once the rest of Eton Mess arrives on location, and Noelle instantly bonds with band member Nate Bridges, do things begin to look up for Noelle. Nile, however, is far from approving of their new found friendship and his displeasure hasn't gone unnoticed. Noelle will do anything to prevent a rift in the band or damage to Nate’s friendship with Nile. The only thing she knows to do is put up walls and pull away. Will Nate stand up and fight for Noelle? Can Noelle fight the darkness that threatens to swallow her whole? Or will their love be forever drowned by the undertow? |
Rhys began to strum his guitar, finding a bluesy melody and going with it. And then Noelle opened her mouth and began to sing. She sounded like an angel—a sweet, Southern, sultry angel. I got lost in the vision of her, at the scene playing out before me. She was singing a song she had written, a song she had obviously written about me. Her eyes stayed locked on mine the entire time. I couldn’t believe she was doing this. She was making it known to everyone in the room that she wanted me, that she loved me. I knew this hadn’t been easy for her and I felt both proud and cherished.
She bounded off the stage as quickly as she had taken it and claimed her seat again next to Chris. Before I could even do more than hug her, Zach was pulling on my arm, dragging me to get ready to take the stage again. Rhys finished his last song and then moved to again sit with Noelle and Chris. I noticed another round of drinks being set in front of them, with them obviously making a celebratory toast of Noelle’s performance. I couldn’t take my eyes off her.
Lorraine Britt is a fourth-generation Native Texan who is also immensely proud of her Louisiana heritage and solid Southern roots. As an enthusiastic lover of the written word, inspiration struck Lorraine and she began to bubble over with her own ideas. Grasping hold of her lifelong dreams, it wasn’t long before she was putting pen to paper and letting her fingers fly over a keyboard to bring her own characters to life. When she isn’t busy scribbling notes for her next idea you might find her whipping up delicious creations in the kitchen, putting miles on her car on road trip adventures, or snapping photos of her favorite rugby team on the pitch. Lorraine is equally passionate about music, movies and sports. You’ll no doubt find these familiar themes woven throughout her books. Lorraine and her family currently make their home in west Texas. |
