LONG TIME COMING
A
mystery, a love story, a ghost story…
December 2003

Forced by her father’s
illness to return to the small Kentucky hometown she has avoided
since high school, veterinarian Joy Hudson resolves to conquer the
dark uneasiness her childhood home still inspires.
Eighteen years have passed since her lifelong best friend, Jenny,
met her death in a tragic accident just a few days after their
senior prom. But neither time nor distance have brought peace to
Joy’s troubled soul--a soul burdened both with hatred for the man
she holds responsible, and with a gripping fear whose source she
cannot identify.
Plagued with
nightmares and disturbed by the large gaps in her memory, Joy comes
to realize that the man she despises may be the only one who can
help her. Because both the danger she sensed--and the friendship she
treasured--now suddenly seem very much alive.
MEANT TO BE
When nothing
is as it seems, all you can do is trust your heart
June 2004

On the
eve of her thirtieth birthday, Meara O’Rourke makes some
resolutions. With her last remaining relative newly buried and her
potentially disastrous engagement broken, she can’t help but feel
alone. Yet Meara is determined to begin her life anew, even when an
unexpected phone call suddenly turns her world upside down. Her
biological mother Sheila, whom she met only once six years before,
lies in critical condition in a nearby hospital. And though the
woman once refused to see her daughter ever again--her last wish is
just the opposite.
A few whispered words,
and Sheila is gone. But the questions she has put into her
daughter’s head, and the historic stone inn she has unknowingly
bequeathed, sweep Meara up into the whirlwind of another life--and a
legacy of deception. When Meara begins to have memories of a place
she's never been, she realizes that finding out the truth about her
birth and adoption might very well tear her own world apart.
