As she escapes the African plains for a luxury cruise liner, romance couldn’t be further from Dr Tara McWilliams’ emotionally scarred mind…even if gorgeous cocktail waiter Nick Fender leaves her shaken and stirred!

Common Ground is the story of two unsuspecting singles falling in love when their paths cross on common ground. A letter hidden away, a triple espresso, and a song about why God made the moon unfolds in a delightful "happily-ever-after." Though it reads like a fairy tale, it is most assuredly true.
Former lawyer and novice private investigator Raam Commoner is caught by surprise when new wife Kayman Karl announces her intention to sell the prestigious white-collar private detective firm founded by her late father to a competitor who specializes in infidelity investigations, unaware that he’ll be even more surprised when an old flame shows up asking him to find an elusive manuscript that could expose an underworld employment agency for assassins–a hiring hall for hitmen. More surprises are in store for Raam and Kayman when it appears that someone else is looking for the manuscript, a homicidal psychopath is murdering people who annoy Kayman, and a secretive government agent is muddying the waters with a matter of national security. Raam and Kayman are newlyweds, learning where the buttons are and hoping for the honeymoon that keeps getting put off while they follow leads that take them from a conjugal bed in their Beverly Hills condo to a jail cell in historic San Miguel de Allende to a killer’s compound in Los Angeles, in search of the common ground from which to defend a family treasure and avenge a family wrong.
