Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Sea Wraith is out today.  It’s available at ImaJinn Books.

It’s Sian Nethercott’s story, and the long awaited conclusion to the Nethercott Tales trilogy.

And here’s what it’s about:

ONE SPIRITED MISS . . .
Sian Nethercott wants to put her mistakes behind her. First, a man she agreed to marry, even though he did not touch her heart; then Lord Lastingham, the only man she has ever loved, even though he seems to have forgotten her. She travels to her sister’s house in Cornwall in order to paint a mural, but her trip is interrupted when she encounters a masked man named Wraith, a criminal whose brazen kiss thrills her. But she can’t forget the warning she received before she left Nethercott Castle: Beware of ghosts in Cornwall!

THREE DANGEROUS MEN . . .
Shocked to find Lord Lastingham in Cornwall where he intends to put a stop to Wraith and the other wreckers, Sian also meets Arthyn Trembeth, the curate in the tiny village of St. Gundred. All three men charm her in their unique ways, but it is Wraith who seems to be near whenever she finds herself in need of rescuing . . . or a soul-sapping kiss. Is he the ghost she was warned about? Even if he is, can she deny herself what she thought she would never find?

TOO MANY GHOSTS . . .
Sian and Wraith must come to trust each other—and their own hearts—as they battle a common enemy to protect all they hold dear . . . and have a ghost of a chance at love.

Physics of Time Travel

By Jo Ann Ferguson

November 30 - December 11

Readers love time travel stories. There’s nothing quite as romantic as two
lovers separated by centuries who find each other. But readers also expect
the stories to have a plausibility about them - a logical way to suspend
belief in the impossible. Learn some basics about “real” time travel (from
a non-physicist) and some ways to make readers come along on the
extraordinary journey with your characters. The two-week discussion will
provide examples from television, the movies, and novels.
