Tara's Nightmare & Beyond - Deanna, #2 - E-book - ePub

Continuing the Deanna story, after "A Learning Experience", Tara leaves for one last trip to Asia. After a long night of fun and frolic, she is ready for a nap by the time she gets to her first class seat on the plane. The few adult beverages she consumed didn't hurt the desire for sleep. Once asleep, Tara begins a dream, a nightmare. She revisits the day, long past, when she had to hide Dee from her father.
In a drunken episode, his threats, then his pursuit of Dee was the last straw. After her trip, she wanders until she finds the Bay Club, a place she knows he would never look. Marie takes her under a wing and after hearing Tara's story, calls a roommate for help. Tom appears, a knight in shining armor, and using some of his "special skills", apprehends the abuser. On to a trial that sends him to prison for the rest of his life.
You know what they say ... life is short. There is some domestic violence described, but in the end, you will stand up and cheer for the "white hat" when the abuser gets what is coming to him. It is short, does not include the child, but necessary to tell the story. The nightmare does end and Tara, Dee, and Tom go on with life. Dee and Tom's relationship continues to blossom, and they decide to tie the knot when Tara returns.
They invite her to stay with them once she has completed her assignment, so it turns into one more iteration of Tom and Tara's long relationship. Dee returns to the learning experience to help Tom, Marie and Lisa deal with their past. The story includes some references to other Paco Jones stories when some of the characters cross paths with each other. It makes for some interesting situations and hopes for peaked curiosity.
