Aftershock Jennifer M Rusboldt

Publisher Marketing: Max is dead. Was it the bullet Nina had aimed at her husband or the massive wave that seized their fishing boat and twisted it like a pretzel? Finally, after years of an abusive relationship Nina got what she wanted--freedom. But freedom comes with a price. The Haitian officals will not let her leave the island until the murder is solved. And Nina will not return to the United States because of what she found on Max before he died. She decides to stand on her own two feet and build her new life in Haiti, without the constraints of a man. Nina obtains a visa in return for volunteer work in the earthquake habitat project. This will give her enough time to fix the wrong Max did on this island and clear her name. Nina is determined to not let a man run her life anymore, until she meets Erik. Erik is on the island heading up the habitat project. His company furnishes the products needed for the rebuild, products that are disappearing. If Erik can catch the thieves this will prove to his father he is competent and worthy of the promotion he has been fighting for. Erik is Nina's boss and just as arrogant as Max. Nothing is going to get in his way of his promotion. Ironically, they find out they have something in common: The Haitian children Max is selling to the United States are the same children stealing Erik's supplies for habitat. When they are forced to work together they find out that what they are looking for is not what they really want. It is what is standing right in front of them. They just have to discover it.
