Beyond the Blue
by TJ O’Shea
Dr. Mei Sharpe is still unable to let her husband and their life go two years after his death. She tells herself she is, if not happy, at least content with her new life as a widow. A chance meeting with Morgan Kelly on a remote road on a blizzardly night after Mei has a flat tire intrigues her because Morgan is funny, intelligent, and kind enough to stop to help a stranger. Then they meet again in her morgue and Mei learns Morgan is the head of the new cold case department. They must meet a third time by chance before Mei acknowledges that she is drawn to the tall handsome lieutenant. Morgan has known since their first meeting that she is intrigued by the beautiful doctor.
O’Shea has written a book about an older woman falling for a younger woman and her journey to letting go of her grief and dead husband while the younger woman has a journey of her own to make to resolve her abandonment issues. The writing is very good, the dialogue witty and sometimes laugh-out loud funny. The pace of the book doesn’t sag in the middle like so many others and the conflict is real. The ending is believable and is, of course, expected.
If you like to read an author’s debut novel, this one that is not to be missed. If you love intelligent, believable characters, pick this book up. If you like a really well written book, this book is for you.
My thanks to Bella Books and NetGalley for an eARC.
