Finding Molly

By Gayle Bright

How does Molly Parsons, a young widow, cope with being terrorized and stalked by a brutal and relentless detective? She runs for her life, stumbling right into the arms of Jake Summers, a handsome geologist whose marriage has just ended.Molly has been hiding for years. Settling for a career in a trade rather than living the tumultuous life of a struggling artist; marrying a steady provider and gentle companion who warmed her heart, but couldn't fire her passions; abandoning her dreams to travel and spending her money and energy remodeling his home. When he dies, she's forced to re-examine her life.After selling the house she moves to a tropical island. Maui feels like paradise, but danger lurks in unlikely places. She meets a misogynistic detective who terrorizes her, forcing her to flee back to the mainland, but that isn't far enough to escape a dedicated hunter like the detective.Jake's enthusiasm for life has grown stale. As a geologist he wants to travel and explore the earth, but his wife prefers the comfort of a soft sofa and the stimulation of a romance novel. When he sees a sales banner for RVs, he can't resist. He leaves his wife and starts an adventure that will change him forever. Driving across the western states alone for day after monotonous day, he confronts his own demons until loneliness threatens to defeat him.In New Mexico Molly's borrowed car breaks down in a town too small to support even one mechanic. Jake comes to her rescue offering her the safety and anonymity of traveling in his RV in exchange for her companionship and the conversation he's so desperate to share.Together they elude the obsessed detective long enough to explore some Native American ruins of the southwest, the fantastic caves of Carlsbad Caverns, and the growing passion they feel for each other. When they realize they're both being hunted, they abandon the RV and race to a secluded ranch in California where they find a fabulous artifact blocking the entrance to a secret cave filled with terrible danger and fabulous treasure.
