After secrets and a mysterious background leave a wife’s life hanging by a thread, a husband must look for answers in the only place he knows—the past.

When wealthy construction company owner and Charlotte detective, Jordan Monroe, meets Jaynee for the first time he is awestruck and determines to make her his wife. Jaynee, however, has a history she cannot easily overcome and is fearful to submit to love. Jordan succeeds in making her his wife, but five years into their marriage, he realizes she is keeping secrets.  Before he can decipher her duplicity, he discovers her unconscious in their home from a gunshot wound only hours after giving her an ultimatum concerning their relationship.

With Jaynee’s life hanging in the balance, the mystery of her past drives Jordan to investigate. But what appears to be an attempted suicide turns out to be something far darker. Is someone from her past stalking her? Or worse, is someone close to Jordan trying to kill them both? As Jordan edges closer to the truth, it may be deadlier than he could ever have imagined.

Carmen DeSousa shares her new release, LAND OF THE NOONDAY SUN, and how she got the idea:



To celebrate the release of Land of theNoonday Sun, we’ve invited Carmen DeSousa back for a brief interview.


You can read more about Carmen in her Meet the Author interview on this blog.

Anyway, we at Manuscript Proofing are short and sweet and to the point and decided to ask only one question, the one everyone asks…

MSProofing’s Question: how did you come up with the idea for Land of the Noonday Sun?

Carmen’s Answer: it’s a weird story actually and most people—unless you are a writer—may not get it, but here goes.

I don’t sketch out my ideas or plot out my books. A line or a prompt will come to me via a song, a line I hear someone say, or simply walking across the floor of an outdoor center in high heels.

Okay, sounds crazy but that’s exactly what happened. While shopping for a gift for my husband, wearing business attire and high heels, which were clicking along the hardwood floors in my favorite outdoor store in Charlotte, I thought to myself, “Who would believe I’m an avid hiker or whitewater kayaker?”

That was all it took. I opened up my notes in my iPhone and started jotting down thoughts. My question: how does a city girl end up owning an outdoor store in the middle of nowhere?

From there, I just start typing. Sometimes I even start in the middle of the story and then go back and fill in the blanks.
