Adeline (Silent Movies Book 1) By Akje Majdanek Kindle Edition Adeline (Silent Movies Book 1) At the dawn of American cinema, English farm boy Trevor Goodwin is forced to flee to New York after he unwittingly participates in an anarchist attack that leaves four people dead. The only thing important to him than his self respect and his family is his fiancée, Honoria, but until the furor over the tragedy dies down, he has to avoid those he loves—especially after the real culprit threatens to kill him. In New York he meets Adeline, a Rubenesque vaudeville singer in a run down theater run by his uncle. Adeline is beautiful but troubled, and Trevor is drawn to her darkness, determined to uncover the secret of her grief. Among Adelines demons is Montague Thornton, her self appointed guardian, who saved her when her family was killed years earlier. Jealous and possessive, Thornton plans to own Addie completely now that shes old enough to marry. Using her survivor guilt as a weapon of manipulation, he tries to shape her into the kind of trophy he desires. He didnt count on the quiet appeal of a simple country boy like Trevor, however. When Trevor joins the show as Addies pianist, it triggers events that threaten to destroy the barriers theyve each carefully constructed around their respective trauma. Can they heal each other before sinister forces thwart their budding relationship? The pioneers of the emerging silent film industry prove almost as deadly as the anarchist movement back home, and Trevors freedom and Adelines sanity hang in the balance. • no cliff hanger ending • no graphic sex • boy next door hero • self published • third person POV 2770 locations 60k words
