I know summer isn’t officially over until the autumnal
equinox rolls around mid-September, but by the time the calendar reads August
31, I’m already thinking fall. My husband and I will be closing our pool this
coming weekend, Halloween stuff is stocked in most every store I visit, and the
days are growing noticeably shorter. I live in the northeast where summer is
much, much too short. Blink and it’s easy to miss. I love fall, but I thrive on
summer. So…I’m lamenting the demise of my favorite season with an end of summer
sale on SOLSTICE ISLAND, my breezy romantic adventure novella.
Why should you read it (other than the fact it’s like a shot
of summer wrapped up inside Kindle pages)? I’m glad you asked. J

SOLSTICE ISLAND
Blurb
Can an ancient leviathan work magic
between a practical man and an idealistic woman?
Rylie
Carswell is an amateur cryptozoologist in search of a mythical creature, the
Sea Goliath. In order to reach Solstice Island, a location the ancient
leviathan is rumored to haunt, she’s forced to hire charter boat captain, Daniel
Decatur.
Initially,
Daniel wants nothing to do with the trip or the fool woman waving double
payment in his face. Convinced she’s yet another loony treasure hunter looking
for gold on the remote island, he reluctantly agrees. An embittered neighbor
wants to have his charter license yanked, so the extra cash will help him stay afloat.
It doesn’t
take long for Daniel to realize Rylie is after the same beast his parents were
tracking when they mysteriously vanished ten years earlier. He’s avoided all
links to cryptozoology ever since, but the smart and sexy cryptid hunter has
him second-guessing his oath and wondering what he’s signed on for.
Warning: A family legacy, glowing plankton and rough
waters.
