One fateful July morning forever
changed the lives of Sémya Slotin and her best friend Polliannah Guryev.
Vincent
Edgerton, the only man Sémya has ever loved, was taken from her by an explosion
and a fire that she couldn’t understand, trust, nor explain. It left her alone,
hurt, angry and desperately seeking answers. On top of everything, she is also
incredibly hormonal; Sémya Slotin is going to be a mother.
Polliannah
just healed from losing her husband but seeing her best friend grieving is not
only breaking her heart, it has been a strain on their once close-knit
relationship. She is afraid that Sémya will completely disappear into her
grief. Thankfully, Polliannah can always seek refuge with the handsome Chief
Superintendent James Connelly. In the past three months, he has become her safe
haven. But when they finally give in to each other and Jim reveals his true
feeling for her, Polliannah pulls away.
Is she ready to put herself out there again?
Then
all of the sudden, Sémya, the pregnant
Detective Extraordinaire is chasing art thieves across the globe, making
dangerous deals and finally meeting her father… It’s all about ex-lovers and
new ones, a priceless painting, con artists, baby bumps, an impromptu trip to
Moscow, designer dresses, teacakes, a birthday ball and reconnecting with your
roots.
With
everything that has happened this year, Sémya and Polliannah are more
vulnerable and exposed than they have ever been. Will Jim’s love and trust be
enough to ease Polliannah’s doubts? Will Sémya find out what happened to
Vincent?
Welcome to the Stages & Thieves
saga, it’s going to be a bumpy ride.
EXCERPT
Sémya
stared at today’s date on her laptop and felt the blood drain from her
face. At the same moment, she felt a
sharp pain in her low abdomen, not the usual kicks Poopie had been blessing her
with. “Oh God!” she cried in pain and held her belly. This is hell! She got dizzy and managed to get to the bathroom
before she made a mess. She kept throwing up for a good ten minutes before she
felt another sharp pain or contraction maybe. When the worst passed, she slowly
got back up and brushed her teeth, put on one of Vincent’s large shirts and
walked back to her bedroom.
The
excitement and joys of the day were gone. All that was left was pain, longing
and grief. Sémya rubbed her belly as to soothe it but she felt another small
contraction creeping in. “Poopie, I promise to be strong if you will,” she
mumbled and went straight to bed. She put her special pregnancy pillow between
her legs and hugged it tightly as the pain moved to her back. She bit into it and breathed. It’s not early labor, Sémya, not early
labor… She was too tired to address the tears that were falling down her
cheeks. If Vincent were here, he would have rubbed her back gently and murmured
nice loving words in her ears. He would tell her what she already knew, that it
was just Braxton Hicks contractions. He would tell her that Poopie was a show
hugger for doing this on his thirty-fifth birthday. Sémya quietly kept crying and braved the pain
until she fell asleep.
