Wings of the Aurora: Midnight Sun

By M Dixie Watson

Aurora flight nurse, Jacque Steele Rose, widowed on September 11, 2001, when her dedicated FBI husband died as the Towers fell in New York City, has invested her subsequent life in her two kids, her responsibilities as the Pediatric Education Specialist for Fairbanks' North Star Medical Center and the Aurora Flight program, and now in her career as a flight transport nurse. But, with both kids out of the house, she faces her future - alone. She's grateful for her teaching, her career, her adult children, and looks forward to grandchildren in the future. But, she's not so sure about cooking for one. And she's definitely not so sure about that "alone" thing. And now, there's a new cop in town - Alaska State Trooper Corporal Kristopher Ericsson. He's a retired Army Command Sergeant Major with over twenty-one years' military experience, and a very special set of skills. He's been a master interrogator, an instructor for a new generation of intelligence operatives, and a contractor at a secret CIA camp in Afghanistan. He speaks three languages and five dialects of Arabic fluently, and he's teaching himself Athabaskan - because it might come in handy in Alaska. The only language he no longer speaks is the language of love. Trooper Ericsson is tough (sometime ruthless), smart, honorable, empathetic, has a lovely tenor voice, and can connect lots of important dots on the job. But he can't connect his heart to the one thing that will make his life whole again. He protects who he really is, because that's the only way he knows he'll be safe. He vows to never reveal his pain or to be vulnerable again. When Kris meets the pretty flight nurse, he finds his dark secret may have the power to shatter a budding relationship. The Trooper is faced with a painful choice. Can he risk revealing what he experienced in the desert or will he be forced to deny himself what could be a second chance at finding peace and meaning in his life?
