Sorry for the extended downtime.  My website was hacked repeatedly for a period of about a week until I finally figured out what exploit was being used and closed the security gap.  I’ve been busy finishing off Chasing Wishes, but it’s not quite ready for release yet.  Soon, though — I promise!  Also, I haven’t forgotten my commitment to provide ARC copies.  Almost there.

So, for now…  let’s get a new website up and a new version of the blurb!

I wish I didn’t have to go home. I wish I was someone else – someone with a future…

All sixteen-year-old Nina Torres wants is a way out, but when she wishes on a shooting star, she never believes that her wish might actually come true. Despised by her rich classmates and afraid to go home to her drug-addicted mother, sometimes it feels as if her boyfriend Isaac is the only person in the world who cares about her.

Sitting beside her, Isaac Preston makes a promise: a promise that no matter what happens—no matter how much his wealthy family disapproves of Nina—they’re going to be together someday.

The next morning, Child Protective Services pays Nina a long overdue visit. Her new foster family changes her name to Irene and hides her from her past to protect her from her mother’s influence, and Nina loses hope of ever seeing Isaac again.

I don’t believe in fairy tales and happily ever afters, but in this moment, I can almost believe it’s him…

Nine years later, a blind and incredibly handsome young entrepreneur, Terrence Radcliffe, hires Irene to be his personal assistant. He reminds her so much of Isaac that she can hardly believe her eyes, and she’s falling for him fast. It can’t be him, though—that’d be a dream come true and Irene doesn’t believe in fairy tales.

Isaac—now Terrence—has searched for his long-lost Nina for years now, and something about his new personal assistant reminds him so much of her. What if Nina was right here under his nose and he was too blind to see her?

Chasing Wishes is a powerful, contemporary tale of lost love and wishes come true, recommended for ages 17+ due to moderate adult content.
