Both Sides of the Fence

Thunderstruck Book 1

by Amelia Elliot

Genre: Contemporary Romance, Woman's Fiction 

That’s the thing about soulmates—you have to be brave enough to stay with them.

Dee Bullard acted responsibly her whole life. She worked hard, went to college, and became a veterinarian. Now in her late thirties, she’s stuck in the one place she always vowed to leave: her childhood home on a farm in Kansas. Then the boy next door breezes back into town, and past heartache catches up with them both.

After years in the Army’s special forces, there are some things that Ricky Lee never talks about. One of those things is the real reason he hasn’t come home in eight years: Dee. She’s a troublemaker who’s left him bearing the consequences one too many times. When Ricky’s father suddenly dies, he’s forced to return to care for his sick mother. Back in Dee’s orbit, Ricky can’t deny her. But he doesn’t think he can survive her either.

With nothing but a low cattle fence and a lifetime of memories standing between them, Ricky and Dee face a reckoning that will either break them forever or unite them for good.

Rich or poor, sick or healthy, everyone needs love.

For Esme Fernandes, life ended at thirty. First, she lost her ability to have children, and then she lost her husband.

All the Ways We're Wrong

Thunderstruck Book 3

You made a list of reasons why you don’t want to have sex with me?”

Ava Blum may be a sparkly, extroverted movie-star known for her extraordinary beauty, but she’s hiding the truth. She’s a divorced, single mother with PTSD, low self-esteem, and a non-existent love life. Unable to shake the lasting effects of abuse, she grieves her fortieth birthday alone in a remote mountain cabin.

Killian Kelly is a man of few words. A bookish, outdoorsy engineer, he keeps things simple. Abandoned before he was three, he barely survived childhood. Thirty years later, he’s found peace in his well-ordered, solitary life working in national forests.

When a mudslide buries Ava alive, Killian rescues her and guides her down the mountain. Surviving the wilderness together leads to an unexpected, inescapable bond. But they’re opposites with incompatible lives, and so they agree to go their separate ways. Instead, they fall into a reckless, passionate affair.

Ava’s convinced she’s not good enough for love, and Killian doesn’t know what love is. When they can’t walk away, they have to decide whether anything right can come from all the ways they’re wrong.

Tropes:

*Forced proximity

*Opposites attract

*Grumpy/Sunshine
