‘Till Time Do Us Part is Live Today
My book ‘Till Time Do Us Part, the first book in my new time travel series Upon A Time is live today!
I am happy and thrilled, yet scared as any mother of a ‘newborn’.
It was a long and somewhat arduous journey. I planned to finish this book long before now, but fate decided differently.
The seed for a time-travel story was planted into my head a little over two years ago when my husband and I first visited Amelia Island and took a boat tour to Georgia’s Golden Isles. I remember looking at Cumberland Island–wild, untamed, and beautiful– and a crazy thought popped into my mind: What if a modern woman, petite and slender, with a short hair-cut, would find herself on this Island, say, a hundred years ago, dressed in jeans and t-shirt? They would probably take her for a boy…
The rest was history. Needless to say, I fell in love with Fernandina Beach, its picturesque historic district, its unapologetic old-fashioned way, its unhurried rhythm of life. Even time seems to move slower there.
After that first visit, I’ve traveled to Amelia Island a few more times, and every time I felt like I was transported back in time to another era. I hope my love to the city of Fernandina Beach and the ocean shines through.
I am not sure how many books there will be in the UPON A TIME series–time will tell (pun intended)–but I am in a process of the second book, which will be a continuation of Nika and Eli’s story.
And here is the short blurb:
Nika Morris’s sixth sense has helped build a successful business, lovingly restoring and reselling historic homes on Florida’s Amelia Island. But there’s one forlorn, neglected relic that’s pulled at her from the moment she saw it. The century-old Coleman house.
Quite unexpectedly, the house is handed to her on a silver platter—along with a mysterious letter, postmarked 1909, yet addressed personally to Nika. Its cryptic message: Find the key. You know where it is. Hurry, for goodness sake!
The message triggers an irresistible drive to find that key. When she does, one twist in an old grandfather clock throws her back in time, straight into the arms of deliciously, devilishly handsome Elijah Coleman.
Swept up in a journey of a lifetime, Nika finds herself falling in love with Eli—and with the family and friends that inhabit a time not even her vivid imagination could have conjured. But in one desperate moment of homesickness, she makes a decision that will not only alter the course of more than one life, but break her heart.
Available on Amazon in e-book or paperback and all other major booksellers.
I hope you’ll have as much fun reading this book as I had writing it.
Happy reading!
