When the Bus Stopped by shelleyinon

When Lucy Falkwell loses control of her house bus on a lonely alpine road in New Zealand, she finds herself in the midst of opera-singer Alessandro Magno's latest music video. She mistakenly believes she's stumbled upon a horrific crime scene. Lucy, a free-spirited eco-warrior, is ignorant of the world lying between the pages of those tabloid magazines. She doesn't recognize Alessandro, nor has she seen his smoldering publicity shots advertising the fact he's in town. Instead, she deduces that he's the main detective working the case. As the two fall into a strange friendship built upon a mistaken identity (all while attempting to rebuild other parts of their lives), the chemistry between them becomes obvious. But how do you learn to trust someone you never really knew in the first place? *** I like to class this kind of 'genre' as BohoLit. You will understand what I mean when you read it ;)

Or will he be the force that brings her whole world crumbling down?

The Hairdresser Diaries by JessicaLMillerauthor

For Tatum, love has always been something to keep at a distance. It was easier and it was safer. As an independent young woman, she is content to enjoy a life split casually between friends and her career. Her life changes one night when by chance she meets the mysterious Cole and finds herself irresistibly drawn to him. Almost instantly he leaves a lingering impression on her that is so perfect it's terrifying. Soon she isn't sure what she wants and finds it impossible to get him off her mind. It's everything about him. It's the scent of him that lingers, the closeness of his breath, the slightest touch of his skin and the blue of his eyes that makes her very soul ache. The last thing she wants is to admit to love and the inevitable complications that come with it. But it isn't long before her inability to reconcile what her heart wants sends her life spiraling out of her control and she becomes trapped in a dance of giving in and running away. Before two people can share their lives, they need to face their past.

Detailed Book 1 Outline: *Shattered*(working title) **Act 1: The Collapse** - Claire's life appears stable from the outside, but cracks are already forming in her marriage. Greg has grown distant, and Claire feels increasingly isolated. - The hacking begins-small at first, but it quickly escalates. Private messages and photos are leaked, and Claire becomes the target of relentless online bullying. - As she tries to cope, she perceives signs of Greg's affair.

She meets a fellow patient stuck in infidelity grief, which serves as a wake-up call for Claire. - Through therapy and introspection, Claire realizes that she cannot define herself by Greg's betrayal or the opinions of others. She begins to focus on herself for the first time in years. - The book ends with Claire leaving the hospital, a little stronger but still facing a world that feels hostile and overwhelming.
