When Maryanne married Arlo, she was on top of the world.
The birth of their son, Aaron, made their life even better.
Then in one split moment, Maryanne's world comes crashing
down when Arlo is shot and killed in an attempted robbery.
Moving to Seattle with her mother and son, Maryanne plans
to finish college and get a job. Eventually, she lands a
position at Horizons in accounts payable and is responsible
for keeping the computers up and going.
Joe Hamilton, head of Seattle's Anti-Terrorist Unit, enjoys
his job except where children are involved. When Joe meets
Maryanne, he knows he's hooked and she's the woman for him.
For Maryanne, who's terribly lonely, Joe fills that void,
and it doesn't hurt that he's very good to her son, Aaron.
After several incidents with the computers at Horizons,
Maryanne realizes the problems occur whenever a certain
strange and scary man arrives. She starts to copy the
information just in case something happens. When things go
from bad to worse, Maryanne and Aaron end up in protective
custody, and Joe is doing the protecting. After several
months of being in hiding with no answers, Joe asks
Maryanne to marry him. He's devastated when she says no.
Every time Joe leaves for work, Maryanne gets more and more
scared that something is going to happen to him. Even
though she loves him and wants to be his wife, she's afraid
of losing Joe like she lost Arlo.
When Aaron is abducted, Joe comes to the rescue, just like
Maryanne knew he would. However, after he brings Aaron back
home to his mother, he leaves without a word. Maryanne
realizes that she needs Joe, no matter what, and hopefully
it's not too late.
This sequel to THIS ONE IS Mine is the second novel in a
series. It's jam-packed with action and adventure. Each of
the characters makes you fall in love with them, and the
heart-stopping faith Maryanne and Aaron have in Joe is
unbelievable. I really enjoyed the opportunity to read THIS
ONE IS MINE and MEMORIES AREN'T ENOUGH and believe they'd
make an excellent addition to anyone's library.
Maryanne Neeley's husband is killed in a tragic accident
just as they plan a move to Seattle, where he would teach
and she would attend college. Maryanne, her son, and
mother, move to Seattle without him.
After saving her son's life from terrorists, Joe Hamilton,
head of Seattle's Anti-Terrorist Unit, is in for one big
surprise when he meets Maryanne.
As time passes and Maryanne finally graduates, the spark of
interest that ignites and grows between them is met with
mixed emotions. Her deceased husband was merely a small-
town college professor, and she lost him; how can she take
a chance on Joe? His job places him in the midst of danger
every day. Sometimes, though, fate steps in. When danger
appears and threatens her life and her son's life, she has
no choice. She turns to Joe for protection.
