The Space Between Worlds

Bridget and her best friend Celena return to the States as local celebrities after their otherworldly adventures in Snowdonia, Wales. They are now in possession of not only ancient knowledge, but a treasure of inconceivable value. Learning its capabilities in secret, they also protect the magical object from Paul, the boy who nearly murdered them to claim it.

Wielding the artifact comes with another price, however, and Bridget quickly learns the danger of tampering with a power she doesn’t fully understand. For the first time, the girls are separated, and Bridget uncovers a crushing truth. She must not only confront a web of betrayal and jealousy, but her own mistakes at last. Finding out who she really is, Paul’s true identity and Bridget’s connection to him may be the most painful truth of all.

Recently I was most honored that Graham Henry, a senior reporter with one of the Welsh papers, wrote a wonderful article on me and my first novel, Lake Caerwych. The article has had a very positive effect on sales in the UK. Naturally, I’m extremely excited that most of those sales came directly from Wales!

Book One of the Copper & Cobalt Trilogy

After finding what appears to be an ancient, Celtic necklace in a second-hand boutique, Bridget and her best friend Celena have the strange feeling that they’ve seen the pendant before, a long, long time ago. This, and the unusual familiarity they’ve felt ever since they met, leads them to ask questions and trace their find back to its source.

Once in Wales, Bridget is compelled to an eerie, megalithic structure and suddenly finds herself in another time and place – as Enid, the dark-haired servant girl she was thousands of years ago. She is immersed in her horrid past and forced to relive it, helpless to avert the tragedy, save her dearest friend or even herself.

Waking at dawn inside the ring of stones, she and Celena begin to embark upon the true adventure laid out before them. They need to right the past not only for themselves, but for a much higher purpose. And Paul, a mysterious stranger who jealously guards his own secrets, may be able to help them.
