Summary
After a bitter breakup with her husband, Carla decides a change of scenery is what's needed.
She answers an add that is looking for someone to house and pet sit for an older couple, while they are away on a month long cruise.
It's completely out of Carla's comfort zone, but with everything going on at home, she decides that time away to herself, in a remote cottage in the middle of nowhere, sounds like a great idea...until it isn't.
Between being at one with nature, the eccentric locals and the blonde that has her experiencing uncharted feelings that seem to be going beyond a simple friendship, can Carla last the month in a mostly isolated place? Or is she not as alone as she first thought?...

Summary
"Oh, please tell me you haven’t had an argument with your mother in front of the whole family".
"Worse" Lisa muttered, suddenly looking very interested in the floor. "I lied".
"You? Detective Sergeant Lisa Swain, pillar of truth and justice, told a fib? Colour me intrigued. What did you say?"
"I told them I was already dating someone."
Carla let out a sharp bark of laughter. "No! Brilliant. Who’s the lucky imaginary lady?"
"Mum went into absolute overdrive. She didn't even pause for breath. She immediately declared that if I’ve been seeing someone, they have to come on the family holiday. I started panicking, trying to make up excuses – said she was busy, said she hated the beach, said she had a terrible phobia of flying. But they wouldn't have it. Mum was relentless. She demanded to know her name".
"And? What did you tell her?”
"I said Carla"

Summary
“You’re wrong.”
Carla grunted. “You’re waking your wife to tell her she’s wrong.” Her rough, sleep sharpened voice was hot.
“Sarah has a crush on you.”
“The heck she has.”
“Just hear me out.”
“Can’t it wait til morning?”

It was all well and good for Detective Sergeant Connor-Swain to be better than Detective Constable Green (behind the ears) at work and on the job. To compete for his girlfriend’s affections — and win — was not so good. It was very, very bad.
