SYNOPSIS
Dylan “Ice Dragon” Thompson has suddenly
become the hottest
thing in MMA. He’s fought all his life for control and inner peace. He focuses
on what he excels at—fighting and his work with the Centre. It’s what he knows
and what keeps him in balance. His latest assignment has him fighting a war
with a partner he doesn’t believe he can trust.
Vanessa Aldridge has grown up in the gym and
has seen it all—some good, some bad.
But when performance-enhancing drugs threaten her life and her
personal sense of worth—enough is enough. The very people closest to her now
have her questioning their motives and nobody is as they seem. On top of all
this, she’s unwittingly become the number-one pawn in an organised crime game
and she’s risking her heart on a guy who wants to fight for everything but
them.
Vanessa quickly discovers that Dylan is far from what he
appears to be. But what happens when his latest assignment blows his carefully
created world wide open? Can Dylan win the most important fight of all—the
one for her heart and their future? Or will he retreat back into the one-dimensional
existence of working and fighting? Can Vanessa remain steadfast to her
principles and just maybe take the ultimate prize? The battle lines are drawn.

When the bell rings, who will
step up to fight? The prize: A future of freedom.

AUTHOR BIO
I recently discovered those school vocational
assessments are really interesting and probably correct! Who would have
thought, hey? You see, I clearly remember taking one of those in Year 11 (for my
US friends, I think that equates to junior year in high school). Anyway, semantics.
Well, the results came back indicating that I should pursue a career in writing
and something else. What that something else was I can’t remember but the
writing thing stuck in my mind.

and something else. What that something else was I can’t remember but the
writing thing stuck in my mind.
Sure, I’d always liked English and had already
developed a ravenous appetite for romance novels by the age of sixteen—but
who becomes a writer straight out of school? So to cut a long story short, I went
to Uni and studied Business and ended up managing large-scale IT projects
shortly after.
I can’t complain: it’s been a great career. I’ve
done some awesome projects and met some incredible people and I won’t be
giving it up anytime soon. Anyway, I’ve messed around with a couple of “secret”
novels over the years and I finally decided to get serious and finish one. Hence
“Finding Trust” came about. And about twenty years later, I’ve finally
proved a vocational assessment correct, because I love writing!
As to some other stuff about me: I live on the
Gold Coast, Australia. I love spending time with my family and friends. When I’m
not sitting behind a screen playing with IT or writing, you might find me down
the beach playing in the waves on a Jet Ski or a bogey board (both are uber cool).
When the weather turns a bit cooler (doesn’t really happen on the Gold Coast),
we like to head for the snow. I’ve discovered I have two kids who are kamikaze
skiers—they must take after their father. He’s always at me to “release the
handbrake.” Apparently I’d ski so much better. I call it a healthy understanding of
self-preservation and gravity!
I like to think I can fit in a few workouts and
martial arts classes each week. This tends to be a figment of my imagination
more than reality, unfortunately. I am trying to remedy this, but those damn
characters just keep demanding to have their stories told and, well, there’s
always another good book to read!
I hope you enjoy mine.
Please drop me a line.
You can find me at my website, www.nataliegayle.com. I’m
active on Facebook, Twitter, and via email Natalie@nataliegayle.com.au.
I’d love to know what you think of my books and well, let’s be truthful—I love
talking about books, whether they’re mine or someone else’s. Fiction is just so
much more fun than reality!!!
Happy Reading
