A stack of mail came this morning . Now everyone is feeling out of sorts. There were quite a few sharp words over breakfast, and a lot of confused looks after, until our sergeant took us aside and told us to pull it together.

It's a normal reaction to letters, apparently. Communicating through the online cafe is one thing. Letters are… more tangible reminders, maybe? Reminders of life outside these gates. Reminders that your life isn't just this: commands and replies, training and drill, falling asleep and getting up, running in step, moving in sync, chores and new skills.

Holding a letter, reading the words—even if there's bad news… it makes you remember what you've left behind, what you're missing. And what you're doing here in the first place. Makes you consider all the whys that get lost in the daily bustle. And the regrets, of course… things left undone, unsaid…

That might be a career limiting move! Or not, if your name is Jack Horwood. Please let me spazz a little - and introduce my bby ace hacker with a horrid past, a truly unique upbringing and a crush the size of Everest.

Dreamspinner Press have just made Job Hunt available for pre-order. And I'm starting to believe that this might actually be really happening. It will be out on May 13th, both as an ebook and as a paperback. And if you'd like to know what it's all about, please keep reading!


Job Hunt

Job Hunt by Jackie Keswick, available from Dreamspinner PressYou don’t greet your new boss dressed like an underage rent boy. But when Jack Horwood—ace hacker and ex-MI6 operative—opens the door to Gareth Flynn, he's too busy to worry over details like that. And anyway, his potential new boss is his former commanding officer – the same guy Jack has had a crush on since he was seventeen. So he should understand, right?

When he applied for the job in Nancarrow Mining's corporate security division, Jack had hoped for peaceful days repelling cyber attacks. Maybe a bit of corporate espionage on the side. His plans didn't include rescuing abused children, hunting pimps, or dealing with his overly protective and hot-as-hell boss, Gareth Flynn.

Walking away is not an option. Jack never takes the easy way out. More than that, meeting Gareth raises old ghosts that Jack needs to put to rest. Rescuing kids. Taking risks. Saving the day. Jack can do all that—but deciding what to do about his attraction to Gareth isn’t the sort of cloak-and-dagger game Jack plays well. Yet Gareth, strong and smart and always on hand when needed, might be Jack’s salvation.
