The award winning and highly recommended second chapter in the Love of a Lifetime is here

In the sweat-soaked satin sheets of an Australian hotel, a chance reunion ignites a fire that refuses to be extinguished. Alison, a woman reclaiming her desires after a stifling marriage, finds herself swept back into the arms of Christian Holland, the lover she left behind twenty-five years ago. Their passionate reconnection is only the beginning, as Christian unveils a gripping tale of valour and danger from his past in war-torn East Timor.

In 1999, Christian, then a former soldier turned liaison officer, is thrust from the comforts of Sydney's elite suburbs into the chaos of Dili. Amid the violence following East Timor's independence referendum, he stumbles into a deadly plot. Armed with nothing but a bluff and a borrowed pistol, Christian's reckless courage saves a life but risks his own. As he navigates military intrigue, illicit affairs, and the ever-present threat of discovery, his actions earn him unexpected honours?and dangerous secrets that could unravel everything.

Back in 2023, Alison grapples with her rekindled passion and the shadows of her past choices. As she embraces her newfound freedom, a lingering doubt about Christian's story threatens to unravel their fragile trust. From the corridors of power to the steamy jungles, Ghost of Timor weaves a thrilling tapestry of love, betrayal, and redemption.

JL Collins delivers a masterful blend of heart-pounding action and sizzling romance, where every choice carries the weight of life and death. Perfect for readers who crave a story that's as seductive as it is suspenseful, this is a tale where pleasure can indeed kill.
