1/2/09 my first book, 'Tripping Through Time', is scheduled to be released today, in digital format, by The Wild Rose Press, it is scheduled for print release on 3/27/09. My story is a time travel romance novel about a young girl who travels back one hundred years to the year, 1869, when she finds a Celtic ring in Lake Champlain, Vt. It couldn't have happened at a better time.
It's the story of her journey from fear to fulfillment, and as she makes her journey, she learns that love is truly timeless.
Here is a new excerpt:
Keealyn wake up, you’re fine, it’s just a
nightmare.” It took some time for her to realize
where she was and shiver off the visions.
Then it hit her.
“Alyssa! How is Alyssa?’ she turned to the
soundly sleeping child. Alyssa was cool to the touch,
and resting normally.
Ryan placed his finger over his lips, and took
Keealyn’s hand. He led her from the room, and
closed the door behind them.
“Let’s sit by the fire.” He added another log and
poked at the fire to catch the new wood. “What were
you dreaming about?” He settled his arm around her
as they sat on the rug close to the fireplace. The
flicker of the fire cast a warm glow on them. Keealyn
hesitated, and then she began to tell him about the
nightmares.
He listened intently, not quite understanding
how her father could feel the need for that kind of
discipline. Deprecating treatment only stole your
child’s self worth.
“Let go of those dreams, Keealyn, that’s all over
now. Your father is a different kind of man than I
am. Maybe it’s because of my parents. They never
ruled with an iron hand, but rather with a firm
voice. It worked for me. I do understand how the
treatment you got from the main man in your
childhood could make you fear all men. I’m asking
you to let it go. Realize once and for all what a good
and worthwhile person you are. Life is too short to
live over and over the hurts of your youth.” Then he
kissed her.
