Never Been This Close To Crazy

Beschreibung

"Uplifting and utterly compelling..." - Robert Dugoni, International Best-Seller of The Tracy Crosswhite Series. "Watch out for the crazy ones," they said. But dating after 40 means you gotta sort through all that, right? Sure, Alex Hill had baggage, but he wasn't crazy-it was just everything around him, like his ex-wife. And maybe his kids. Ok, and his job. A guitar-playing cop on a top-secret FBI task force who borrows his parent's station wagon while struggling to raise 5 kids on his own wasn't really what the straight-forward human resources professional Nikki Myers was looking for, but Alex sure was cute…and a good, intelligent man, which was more than she'd found so far. Nikki didn't want to change him-Alex didn't need it. But she did want to change his world-he deserved it. Worlds collide in the seaside town of Edmonds, Washington when Nikki discovers how far she is willing to go to protect Alex and his family from the unpredictable fallout of mental illness. Readers of Gillian Flynn, Maria Semple, and Garth Stein will be quickly drawn in and hooked for the ride into the deep-end of someone else's crazy, leaving you with laughs, love, and an overcooked sense of guilty pleasure when Nikki's own secrets are revealed.

Autor

Alan Hardwick studied music theory, composition, and education at Washington State University before embarking on an unexpected career in law enforcement. As an officer in Boise, Idaho, he became a detective investigating everything from juvenile matters to organized crime. In 2001, Alan founded the Boise Police Department's Criminal Intelligence Unit before moving with his family to Edmonds, Washington, where he raised his five children while serving with the Edmonds Police Department. There he plans to complete a 30-year police career in his home state. Alan is a member of the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force, a Liaison with the Washington State Fusion Center, a member of the Washington Homicide Investigator's Association, a leader of the Snohomish County Integrated Child Abduction Response Team, and a founding member of the North Sound Counterterrorism Working Group. Alan also serves as a trainer for law enforcement leaders at the Washington state police academy. His love of creating music was rekindled in 2008 when Alan met his future wife, Kristen. With her love and support, Alan re-entered the northwest music scene where he and two friends formed the band One Love Bridge. They currently perform across western Washington. Alan joined the Pacific Northwest Writer's Association in 2018 to help achieve his lifelong dream of becoming an author and to transition his career of technical and legal writing into something more palatable to the public domain. He currently lives in Edmonds with his wife Kristen and their four-legged furry boys, Arthur, Walter, and Sherman. Additional information is available at www.alanhardwick.com.
