Blurb
Jo Patterson never expected to fall for a rock star – let alone lose him. Now she’s trying to find her footing by buying the Manhattan diner where their love story began. But this isn’t just about reclaiming a piece of her past. Jo is one of the richest women in New York with big ideas to launch an innovative chain of diners throughout the USA.
When she hires a brilliant new manager for her business, Moon Diners, Cooper’s input exceeds all expectations, yet difficulties arise after he reveals a secret that unsettles Jo.
And then there’s the man on the subway. Homeless, withdrawn, and strangely familiar, he haunts her thoughts. When Jo learns he was once a celebrated author, she’s compelled to help him find his voice again – whether he wants her help or not.
A life-changing move from her Manhattan penthouse to live in a modest Marble Hill apartment has its challenges as Jo slips deeper into her problems. This is a story that proves wealth means little without love, and that healing often begins in the most unexpected places.
About Mark Laming
My passion has always been writing and I am unable to imagine a day without putting the laptop through its paces. As a young boy I remember hiding in the wings of my father’s theatre in Harrogate, staring in awe at the actors rehearsing for a show that he had written. Irrefutably, a tiny slice of his magic, thankfully, rubbed off on me and became the catalyst for my storytelling.
To date, four of my novels have been published and I am in the process of writing another one. I have written over two hundred short stories of which four have been broadcast by the BBC. More recently I have become a regular contributor to a Dorset magazine group. My interests include horology and being grandfather to four colourful characters who continually test my mind and bank account!
I was nominated for The People’s Book Prize 2019 for my novel ‘Shadow with Nowhere to Fall’. The patrons are Frederick Forsyth CBE and Founding Patron: Dame Beryl Bainbridge. The last couple of years have been a busy time for me with local BBC radio interviews. I have also been featured as a guest on the American Author’s Show.
Finally, as many authors will confirm, it is a long and bumpy path getting published. If I had my time again, would I choose writing as my first love? You bet I would!
