o announce that my first novel Thin Places (2015), winner of a National Indie Excellence Award, is available at a discount on Smashwords for $3.49 the month of July. A page-turner and a great summer read!
Skye arrives at college, determined to leave her past behind. But suddenly she sees the shadowy image of her mother on campus. Eight years ago, Skye’s mother abandoned her. What happened all those years ago? Is she even still alive? Reluctantly, Skye seeks help in the counseling clinic, but the psychologist, Alix, has suffered her own tragic loss and resolves not to let the desperate girl drag them both into the past.
THIN PLACES is a story of brokenness and healing. Each grappling with colliding issues of grief and abandonment, each yearning for long-lost connections.
And it’s not too late to read my second novel, Cross Body Lead, winner of a 5-star review from Reader Views. Here’s what Kirkus Reviews had to say.
How far would you go to right an injustice?
Billie Ochoa teaches Cold War politics and Cuban history at a small liberal arts college across the bay from San Francisco. She is charismatic, unapologetic, resolute. But when one of her students is being stalked and needs her help, Billie has to choose between fighting injustice. Or telling the truth.
Lyrical and poignant, edgy, bold and honest, CROSS BODY LEAD is a story at once cautionary and all too real. Where indifference leads to tragedy, but the ultimate lessons learned are ones of compassion and love.
