The Break of Dawn

Cora 'I am all that I need' Richards has a prison reputation for being an ice queen. She exists via a strict code of survival: people equal pain-the end. Surprises lead to disappointment; therefore, Cora won't tolerate the unexpected. Friends? No. Lovers? Never. A hollow nighttime ache in her chest is bothersome, true, but the issue certainly isn't caused by loneliness. Cora knows who she is and what she isn't.
She gladly accepts a placement at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, not to meet the elusive artist, Sky Sunday, but to finish her prison sentence early. It's work, nothing more. But the breathtaking landscape, woolly lambs, fluffy ducklings, and friendly artists challenge a woman trying not to feel. Life at the Sculpture Park is vibrant, messy, and warm. Still, it would take someone extraordinary to melt an ice queen such as Cora-the end.
Sky Sunday wears dungarees and muddy yellow boots, talks in riddles, listens to Cora's suggestions, and never belittles her. From the first awkward meeting, attraction sizzles between them. But Sky is rubbish at talking. So is Cora. How can two impenetrable women ever get close?From dawn to dusk, the workers toil on a mysterious, humming sculpture, and nobody knows what it's supposed to be. If they trust their instincts, Sky insists that something unique will happen on Easter Sunday.
Cora abandons the last of her ice armour as dawn breaks, but is it too late to be vulnerable and take a second chance?What happens when an ice queen and a fluffy chick kiss? Can Cora and Sky forget their past and begin a new life together? This story is not the end.
