The Gallery Evacuation, a romantic thriller concept package. The graphic shows 3 novel covers and the free lead magnet, One Frame Left Hanging.

The concept

Three museum workers on a travelling collection know the pictures intimately. An evacuation separates people who entered together and gives a pursuer seconds to move unseen. The lovers in each novel choose a person over an object, then live with what that choice means after the doors reopen.

Under a blue drop cloth somebody breathes. Polly expects a protester. Lewis recognises the voice as the conservator who was supposed to have resigned last month. The free companion novella is One Frame Left Hanging.

The worldPublic galleries in three British cities. Staff evacuate visitors before artworks. Any evidence about a crime goes to investigators. Each emergency has a separate human cause and cast.
Series tropesWorkplace Romance • Traveling Together • Opposites Attract
Intended readershipFor readers of romantic thrillers who like public settings, fast decisions and two adults solving the danger together.
Tone & contentAdult, moderate open-door romance. Threats, fire alarms and contained violence. A complete investigation and lasting romantic ending per title.

Series arc

The three books

The direction is set. The books are written after you order.

Free novella

One Frame Left Hanging

One frame is hanging after the gallery empties. Inside its glass Hester sees a red sleeve reflected from a corridor marked clear. Gavin has already counted the room twice.

Story outline
Story arc and endingThe sleeve belongs to a cleaner hiding from her former partner, a contractor who used the alarm to find her. Hester and Gavin take her to a staffed exit and report his breach; the mirror and an unissued contractor pass corroborate her story. Hester changes the check to include contractors and Gavin asks her to dinner after the exhibition moves. They finish the tour together.
Emotional payoffCounting a person properly becomes the beginning of intimacy.
Story focusStrangers to Lovers
Length30,000 words planned

During a fire drill the east stair will not open. Kim hears her estranged husband calmly describing a painting to a visitor on the wrong side of the door. His tours have never used that stair.

Story outline
Story arc and endingSaul is helping a witness avoid a former colleague who assaulted her. A guard has tied the stair shut to force them into the colleague’s path. Kim follows the accessible exit plan, alerts emergency staff and leads the public through a safe route. A cleaner identifies who closed the stair and the witness gives her own statement.

The Painting in the Ambulance

Jess sees a rolled canvas in an ambulance while its supposed patient is still sitting on the steps. Fintan notices the wrong shoulder patch. The vehicle is meant for a person, and a person has just disappeared.

Story outline
Story arc and endingThe attackers are seeking a witness to a previous assault; the canvas disguises equipment and provides an excuse to enter the bay. Jess recognises a temporary show vehicle by a repaired rear panel. Fintan keeps the actual patient with legitimate medics, then gives police the route. Officers recover the witness at a private loading yard. The false ambulance crew are identified by a petrol-station camera. Jess and Fintan take their next trip by choice and make a home together.
Emotional payoffThey choose each other after the rescue, when nobody needs anyone to be brave.
Story focusFriends to Lovers
