A Cry in the Night Kindle Edition

by Karen J Mossman (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.7 out of 5 stars (9)
To the entire world, Rick had it all—rock stardom, fame, and a fortune that would make anyone envious; however, inside, he felt the relentless burn of exhaustion and disillusionment.

On the edge of a breakdown, the weight of his depression beats him down. He seeks refuge in an isolated shore side hideaway.

Drowning his sorrows in alcohol. The salty air does little to clear his clouded mind.

But he is not alone. Gemma is in the apartment below, a lonesome, solitary figure, who sparks his curiosity.

Inevitably, the two meet as they face their inner battles together

Past and future collide in this romantic story of heartache, passions and futures.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 15 April 2018
    Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase
    Rick, a world famous rock star appears to have it all. But the price of fame is too much. He’s tired, physically, mentally and emotionally so goes off to an isolated seaside hideaway.
    The only other apartment that appears occupied, is done so by a Gemma, a girl more miserable than him. Every time he sees her she crying, or shows the signs of having just been crying.
    After bumping into each other a few times, and a mishap with keys, Gemma and Rick finally get to talk to each other. They speak about their past, and what they want for the future. Her smile is infectious.
    What will happen when their few stolen moments have to come to an end?
    Nice story with a lot of heart.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A short yet intense character study.
    Reviewed in Australia on 27 October 2018
    Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase
    This is the first work by the author that I've read and it was a great introduction to her style.
    The story concerns neighbours Rick and Gemma who both rent beachside apartments.
    Both these characters are broken but in very different ways.
    Karen J Mossman makes both characters relatable and interesting.
    As a romance develops between the two, the author clearly shows how each one is the perfect remedy for the other's current ennui.
    A great short read especially for those readers who love a good character driven story.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A Tender Romance Between Strangers
    Reviewed in the United States on 21 April 2018
    Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase
    I’ve enjoyed a few of the Electric Eclectic Books, and when I saw a new one by Karen J. Mossman, I had to read it. A Cry in the Night is a romance with a touch of suspense. When rock star Rick Crockle takes a break from touring and rents an apartment at the beach, he is seeking some peace and quiet. Leaving the hectic life of a rock star behind, he plans to write and come up with some new songs. Even more important, Rick is taking time for some self examination.
    Shortly after moving into the apartment he notices a young woman he describes as “beautiful in a plain sort of way.” In spite of this, he becomes obsessed with her. She cries often, and he wonders what makes her so sad. Finally, Gemma speaks to him. Little by little they become friendly, and she tells him her story. After a tragedy in her life, she travels to America to grieve privately. Soon they have become lovers, and Gemma encourages him to explore other things in life.
    This begins as a sweet romance; two young people at a crossroads in their lives, finding comfort and love with one another. Then one day Gemma leaves a farewell note to Rick and disappears. Rick goes on to have another successful tour with his band. His career soars as he begins to star in films. Eventually, he writes his autobiography and embarks on a book tour.
    A Cry in the Night is a tender story of two people rescuing one another; two strangers crossing paths at critical times in their lives. The characters could have been developed a bit more, and if this was a longer book, it might have been done. I had a hard time relating to them. I must compliment the author on a fabulous conclusion. I never saw it coming, and it was perfect. In fact, it is the end of the story that made the greatest impression on me. Reading the last line in this sweet tale, I set my Kindle down feeling satisfied.
    I recommend this book as a quick, romantic read, with a delightful twist at the end. I hope Ms. Mossman will take this story and expand it into a full length book someday. It’s that good!
