Baci e desideri di Natale
by Sharon Kleve Maddalena Lukasik“Nonna, ho provato la tua idea ma non ha funzionato”. Guardavo gli alberi coperti di neve quando Scorch, il mio carlino, appoggiò la testa alla mia gamba per attirare la mia attenzione e avere una grattata. “Tesoro, non gli hai dato l’opportunità”. Dal tono freddo, fermo della nonna, non c’erano possibilità di trattativa. “Amo le festività. Vorrei trascorrerle con te e non in una città dove non conosco nessuno”. La neve si accumulò rapidamente fuori dall’appartamento che avevo affittato. Il meteo aveva previsto dodici centimetri di neve in mattinata. Brunswick, nel Maine era bellissima coperta di neve bianca e pura, ma diventò difficoltoso spostarsi. “Hai ancora tre mesi di avventure. Passa le festività dove non sei mai stata, e se non ti piace, torna a casa”. “Va bene, altri tre mesi”, brontolai e Scorch abbaiò. “Accarezza Scorch da parte mia”. La nonna rise “mi manca il piccoletto”. “Sarà fatto, gli manchi anche tu”. Scorch si sedette sul mio piede, e lo grattai dietro l’orecchio. “Se il tempo lo permetterà, domani andrò all’aeroporto internazionale Sea-Tac e passerò qualche giorno provando il vino dello stato di Washington occidentale. Poi, dovrei fare un giro verso Washington orientale. C’è un paese che si chiama Vine Grove, che mi interessa in particolar modo. Se il vino è buono come ho letto, te ne manderò un paio di scatole per Natale”. “Meraviglioso, tesoro. Per quanto ti ami e mi manchi, voglio che tu trovi la felicità, che non penso che sia qui a Charleston”. “Lo so. Devo trovare il mio posto e ricominciare da capo”. “Ce la farai. Forse Washington è quel posto”. “Forse…”

by Cornelia Grey Rhys FordUn'indagine di Cole McGinnisCole Kenjiro McGinnis, ex-poliziotto e investigatore privato, sta cercando di superare la morte del suo amante, avvenuta durante una sparatoria, quando gli capita un'indagine apparentemente di routine. Investigare l'apparente suicidio del figlio di un importante uomo d'affari coreano si rivela subito un incarico tutt'altro che ordinario, specialmente quando Cole incontra Kim Jae-Min, il bel cugino del defunto. Il cugino di Jae-Min aveva un piccolo, sporco segreto, uno che Cole conosce da tutta la vita e che Jae-Min sta ancora nascondendo alla sua famiglia. L'indagine porta Cole da ville eleganti e squallidi appuntamenti segreti di amanti fino al Dirty Kiss, il locale dove i ricchi vanno a soddisfare con discrezione i desideri di cui le loro famiglie troppo tradizionali preferirebbero non sapere niente. Inoltre porta Cole McGinnis fra le braccia di Jae-Min, ma questo potrebbe essere un problema. La morte del cugino di Jae-Min appare sempre meno un suicidio, e il ragazzo appare sempre più un bersaglio. Cole ha già perso un amante per una morte violenta: non perderà anche Jae-Min.
