New teaser for Summer & Joon...

 

Winter..

 

Summer & Joon  is  my first Winter romance novel. Being that Winter is my least favorite month, I thought it would be rather difficult. To my surprise, it wasn’t. I hope the readers will enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. 

Release date: 9/25/2021

I can't wait until I can visit this lovely zoo again. The elephants were truly majestic.

Check out these lovely pictures I snapped of a covered bridge in Bennington, Vermont. 

" The Silk Covered Bridge is located roughly midway between downtown Bennington and North Bennington, on Silk Road, which connects Vermont Route 67A and Vermont Route 279. The bridge has a relatively rural setting. It is oriented north-south across the west-flowing Walloomsac River. Its northern abutment is original stone slab, which has been faced in concrete, while the southern abutment is a reconstructed concrete structure. The bridge is a Town lattice truss, 88 feet (27 m) long, with a single-lane roadway 15 feet (4.6 m) wide. The sides of the bridge are clad in vertical boards, as are the insides of the portals, while the outside portal ends are finished in flush horizontal boards. In the center part of the bridge, the boards do not rise the full height of the truss."

Nat King Cole - "When I Fall in Love"

 

This is one of many songs that  inspired me while writing Summer & Joon.

 

Be brave..

 

 

 As the release date for Summer & Joon approaches, please check back for teasers, and character profiles.

 

"Summer Night, Riverside" Sara Teasdale

"In the wild soft summer darkness 
How many and many a night we two together 
Sat in the park and watched the Hudson 
Wearing her lights like golden spangles 
Glinting on black satin. 
The rail along the curving pathway 
Was low in a happy place to let us cross, 
And down the hill a tree that dripped with bloom 
Sheltered us, 
While your kisses and the flowers, 
Falling, falling, 
Tangled in my hair.... 
The frail white stars moved slowly over the sky. "

Wordless Wednesday...

Summer solstice 2021

"The summer sun shone round me,

The folded valley lay

In a stream of sun and odour,

That sultry summer day.

The tall trees stood in the sunlight

As still as still could be,

But the deep grass sighed and rustled

And bowed and beckoned me.

The deep grass moved and whispered

And bowed and brushed my face.

It whispered in the sunshine:

"The winter comes apace."

Robert Louis Stevenson

Thanks..

 I just want to thank all of my fellow authors, bloggers and readers for reaching out to me, after learning that my Mom passed away. It has been very, very difficult, but my family and I are getting by.  Again, thank you so  much for your words of encouragement, love and support. It means the world to me.

About Summer & Joon.

 

My previous novel, Brooklyn’s Song, is a romantic-suspense. I wanted to write something a little lighter this time around, my goal was to write an old-fashioned love story. I’ve never written a novel that takes place in the Winter or a story featuring a single-mother. The story is not only about the love between Summer and Joon; it celebrates friendships too, In particular friendships between women.

Summer & Joon is set to be released on 9/25/2021. You may pre-order it now on Amazon.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09322QDPN
