My name is Jessica Koch and my novel has been translated into the English language and is now available.
More than 250,000 readers made this the No. 1 best selling ebook in Germany 2016. After months of preparing, translating, editing and proofreading "So Near the Horizon" is finally available in English, too!
A story of deep love. A story of trust, courage, pain, despair, and the strength to let go. A true story.
Jessica has an uncomplicated life and a promising future. Leaving the house one evening, she has no idea that she's about to meet the love of her life - and that her entire understanding of the world is about to change. Before long, she's going to face a decision that will shape her forever ...
In So Near the Horizon, Jessica Koch describes a life lived somewhere between hope and fear, confronting true events from her own past with raw honesty and frank reflection - and exploring more than one difficult subject along the way.
Reading sample
(...) "Why?" I tried to meet his eyes, but he shut them, avoiding my gaze. His fingernails dug into the skin on his bare arms, and he pursed his lips grimly. Slowly, I scooted toward him. "Talk to me, Danny, please," I said, trying to pry one of his arms loose. But the more I tugged, the more rigidly he kept them crossed against his body as he shrank away from me as far as he could inside the cramped car. For a moment, I was afraid he would simply get out and walk away. Too close, a voice whispered inside me. You're much too close to him! I let go of his arm so I could slide back into my seat, and he relaxed almost instantly. He took several deep, slow breaths before opening his eyes and blinking at me through his long lashes. "You know why," he whispered. "And someday I'll tell you myself. I promise. Be patient with me."
And to say thank you to all the helping hands out there, the eBook currently only costs ★99ct★ on Amazon :)
