Stronger than yesterday

di Laura Carpenter (Autore)

Laura Carpenter, 2025

In a storm-struck corner of Ulster, safety is not a given — it's a practice. Isla McVeigh arrives at her aunt's farmhouse carrying little more than a bag, a scar of silence, and the conviction that stillness might break her. She's done with men who fill a room with fear. What she doesn't expect is Cormac Kincaid — ex-forces, local watchman, a man who keeps both words and weapons clean. When an unseen watcher begins leaving messages and photographs, the small rituals that keep Isla steady — tea before talk, light before dark — turn into acts of resistance. Cormac stands sentinel at her threshold, his protection built on consent and quiet respect. Together, they draw new boundaries: red means stop, amber means talk, green means proceed slowly. As threats press closer, trust becomes their shared language — spoken through eye contact, breath control, and the choice to stay. Each night they count survival not in hours but in kindnesses offered and received. Outside, the weather has its say. Inside, they build something harder to break than fear. Stronger Than Yesterday is a fierce, intimate novel about reclaiming agency and redefining safety. Laura Carpenter crafts a romance of precision and pulse — a story where the heart's strongest muscle is courage, and tenderness is an act of defiance. Fans of Nora Roberts' suspense arcs, Mariana Zapata's slow-burn grit, and Adrian McKinty's Northern edge will find a world of smoke, rain, and deliberate grace — where love isn't loud, but it never backs down.
