About this ebook
A flapping coat and a wayward hat are easy enough to laugh off. A participant's embarrassment, a promotional offer with an uncomfortable message, and the hours Saskia keeps giving away are harder to manage. Peter wants to help. Unfortunately, his most familiar version of helping comes with a spreadsheet and a plan that nobody asked him to write.
With the weather closing in and a call from Manhattan reopening old expectations, their growing relationship reaches its first serious test. Saskia must say what her work can cost her. Peter must learn that being useful is not the same as being invited.
Gale Force Alignment is Book 3 of The Dutch Detour, a contemporary romantic comedy about work, boundaries, and choosing each other in less-than-perfect conditions. Best read after The Architecture of Niksen.
