Synopsis Spanish Bay is a feel-good novel about two young men who, despite having the odds stacked against them, never give up, always see the silver lining, work hard, and are committed to their families, come what may. Chris, a Texan native who recently moved to Carmel, rescues wheelchair-bound Neil from bullies. Neither question the love that develops between them, although their life together is not without challenges. When Chrisís parents die in a car accident, their young love faces the ultimate test. Will they be able to cope with the additional responsibility of raising Chrisís baby brother Frank, who is also confined to a wheelchair? Spanish Bay is about love, overcoming obstacles, and finding happiness, wherever you are.

Excerpt from Spanish Bay

“The stew turned out to be as delicious as it looked and smelled, and Jessica finally told them the story of how they’d gotten acquainted with old Murphy.
“I drove over to his house one day, with a meat pie, just to say thanks for how nice he’d been to you, and ol’ Steve here wasn’t feeling too well. He was running a fever. So I called the doctor and looked after him for a few days, until he was back on his feet. Apparently someone hadn’t taken his flu shot last fall, and so he got it when one of the farm hands came down with the flu. We’ve kind of been friends ever since. And when Steve’s foreman quit last month, Steve offered the job to Jack.”
“You’re the new foreman on the Murphy ranch? But how can you run both places at the same time?”
“I run it as one really. Instead of being paid, Steve here allows me to use his farm hands on our place as well, which makes my life so much easier. We work all the fields essentially as one, I was able to fix the roofs of the house and the barn, fix the stables and paint the house for the material cost. And Jess has been invaluable in the fields. Everything we’ve eaten tonight is food produced here on the Double J Ranch.”

Spanish-Bay_-about-author

Author-Hans-Hirschi
Hans M Hirschi (b. 1967) has been writing stories ever since he was a child. Adulthood and the demands of corporate life efficiently put an end to his fictional writing for over twenty years. A global executive in training and channel development, Hans has traveled the world and had previously published non-fictional titles.   The birth of his son and the subsequent parental leave provided him with the opportunity to unleash his creative writing once again. With little influence over his brain’s creative workings, he indulges it, going with the flow.   A deeply rooted passion for, faith in a better world, in love, tolerance and diversity are a red thread throughout both his creative and non-fictional work. His novels might best be described as “literary romance, engaging characters and relevant stories that won’t leave you untouched, but hopeful.”   Hans is a proud member of the Swedish Writers’ Union and the Writers’ Center in Sweden.
