Here’s the set-up:

Secrets of the past seldom stay buried forever…

Landscape artist Claire Martin has married the love of her life, legendary singer Robert Silver of the band Deep Blue. But her peaceful world is rocked by an unexpected revelation that crushes her dreams and causes her to question everything she knows about her famous husband.

Although Robert is clean and sober, and embarking on a new opportunity with his musical partner Art Hoffman, the consequences of one night long ago fracture his family and threaten his marriage to the woman who loves him like no one else. Will love survive, or will career pressures, family turmoil and the ever-present specter of the paparazzi destroy their new life together?

Editorial Reviews

“It’s a true delight to find romance books where the main characters are mature, well-rounded people, who carry baggage and scars from real life events. It was an even bigger delight to discover a new author who can skillfully weave a story about the highs and lows, trials and tribulations, and amazement of finding love, being romanced and enjoying an active sex life, even with main characters in their 50s and 60s. Sex and romance is not just for the young, and Kathleen Duhamel proves this with her well written, detailed yet realistic sex scenes that leave you hot under the collar. Duhamel cleverly engages the reader with real life conversations, which could easily be you and your best friend, chatting over wine or coffee, sharing and supporting each other. There are not many people who will get to their fifties or sixties, without a few hiccoughs along life’s path. Kathleen understands and embraces this and in the first two books from the Deep Blue Trilogy, allows Claire, Rob, Denise and Artie to wear their scars with honor and talk about their misgivings and hang ups about their lives and battles.” —Allyson R. Abbott, author of Touching Ed

“Enter the glamorous world of fame and fortune, peopled by rock musicians, artists, rich people, and television luminaries. In Deeper, the second book in the Deep Blue Trilogy, we become reacquainted with the cast of characters from the first volume and learn—surprise!—if we prick them, they bleed, like Shakespeare’s Shylock or you and me…Duhamel moved in the right direction by complicating the plot…Believe me, women over forty, fifty, even sixty indulge in romantic fantasies, and Deeper is a pleasant, smooth slide into a story complex, yet comforting enough to satisfy…this book reminds us of the varying definitions and manifestations of love. The show biz and famous people we fantasize about, lust over, envy, discuss, aren’t plastic figurines. They, like us, must be unique, possess strengths and weaknesses, meet everyday challenges, in order to truly be human. The characters may have flashier lives than the ordinary, but we come to believe they could be our good friends, too.” —Bonnie McCune, author of Falling Like a Rock
