Future Past is the premise behind a female driven steam punk tale
Charlotte “Lottie” Rawlins has always believed in magic, ever since the day a young woman saved her life and then vanished right before her very eyes. But that was twelve years ago, and in all that time Charlotte has yet to find a magician who can duplicate what she’d witnessed. Even as she learns from some of the best, and worst in the business, Charlotte has an odd feeling she’ll eventually meet the woman who was her champion. And when she does, she’ll be forced to choose. Is she really keen on becoming some elderly duke’s wife, or is she ready to use her formidable talents to save the world?

Another delay for HEAVEN
Pencil sketch of HEAVEN book cover HEAVEN’s release date had to be pushed back due to circumstances out of my control (my nine to five has really gotten hectic, so all my attention, even the hours I’d usually spend editing and proof-reading are now filled with take home work).
June 15thThe end of June looks more realistic, and gives me breathing room to catch any typos or passages that don’t flow well.I’ve extended the free book excerpt by 15 more pages. Here’s where you can read up to seven chapters of HEAVEN

Finally . . . HEAVEN
This book was supposed to be out last year, but there was a secondary romance in the book that needed a bit more work. So I held off until just the right scenes came to mind, and putting the couple together didn’t seem so improbable.
Just for fun, I thought I’d cast the movie of this book:
Heaven For Josh Duval, the wounded Marine, I’d cast Hayden Christensen:

The unlikeable lead character -I Luv ’em!
Love Stories 3 Danni Ahmed from UNBROKEN could best be described as bat shit crazy when the reader first gets a look at her:
The stench of alcohol invaded his nostrils even before he saw the girl, the screen door blasting open with such force it almost swung back and clipped her.
He was out of his chair with a bobble head nod in greeting, holding the glass in his hand. “G-good afternoon Ma’am.”
“Oh just shut the fuck up.”
It goes downhill from there for Alex Campos, in a role reversal where he’s the hot new guy trying to land the girl. But Danni’s used to guys like Alex, suckups who want to play for her father. Her dad’s considered the kingmaker where they live, a high school coach who’s sent more of his players to the pros than any other. Why he’s not coaching at the college level is anyone’s guess, but most people would probably say it’s because of his wayward daughter. UNBROKEN is a contemporary romance featuring a strong willed young woman who refuses to kowtow to anyone, even an iron willed father and the boys who’ve fallen under her spell.
By comparison, tough as nails Layla Reeves from DRAWN TO YOU/JUST THE WAY YOU ARE has a new body and a new attitude, only so called friends want to keep her down. Before her weight loss she was the girl they could call at the last minute to babysit, or the one who had their back in a fight. Now that she’s no longer the chubby funny girl, people say she’s different. But the truth is, they never really knew her:
“Promise you won’t look. I want this to be a surprise.” His voice returned to the soft tenor she remembered from high school.
