BOOK ONE
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
I found myself staying up late into the wee hours, promising myself ‘just one more chapter,’ but couldn’t put it down. I would recommend this book to anyone and look forward to the upcoming sequel.
Your characters felt real: the way they talk, their thoughts, their actions. Everything makes sense... I can feel their emotions. You do a good job of conveying their feelings. You make the love that [Kelly and Sebastian] had for one another feel real and I can’t state the importance of this enough. Characters will often carry a novel, and you seem to have a knack for creating very good ones. I feel like I know these people.
I loved it! This book spoke
to me and resonated with me on so many levels. It is the story of Love, Death, Forgiveness, Resiliency, Illness, Shock and Trauma, Hope, Faith, Patience
and Perseverance.
It is your story or my story. This is the beauty, pain, and hopefulness we call life... and about the choices
we make.

BOOK ONE
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
I was up at 6:00 this morning finishing the first book Rough New Prizes. I have been reading it slowly to savor it, but I couldn't wait any longer. Sometimes I read in bed while my husband sleeps, but today I went into the living room. I'm glad I did because I went through half a box of tissues.
The story made me look at my own relationship with fresh eyes. So many little things in life can become big problems if you are not paying attention. And despite our best efforts to protect those we love, bad things can happen to good people. I really enjoyed reading this book. It is a great story with many unexpected twists.
As I often do, I will read it again right away before I pass it on. It is a different experience when you know how it ends.


BIO

Mercedes-Mary McPherson
"I love my characters. When I write dialogue, I hear their voices, their unique inflections and facial expressions. When they dance or walk or make love... I'm intimately aware of how my characters move, the gestures they make. I know my characters so well."
The author was raised on a lake in northern Minnesota. A closet chef and great-grandmother of three, she writes long hand with a fountain pen - and is writing a fourth novel... backstories and future stories of your favorite characters. And of course, the end of the road story. After all, all good stories must come to an end...
