She finds her way to Rock House Grill and back into the life of the man she
helped save.
Can love be the ingredient needed to survive the many
obstacles they face?
Excerpt
“Easy, you’re going to be okay.” A soft voice eased through the chaos around him. The owner of the voice grabbed his arms and held them in a firm but gentle grip. “I’m right here with you. You are not alone.”
“Can hardly m-move.” His voice slurred. “C-can’t see anything.”
“You’ve been in an accident. I’m an EMT with the ambulance squad,” the velvety voice calmly explained. “You can’t see well because we’re under a tarp. Hold still, okay?”
“‘K.” A small light flickered at the edge of his vision. It shone into a bag next to him. Penlight.
“You’re restrained to a board. It’s to keep your head from moving and causing more injury.”
She continued to talk to him. The voice reached down somewhere inside
him, calming and peaceful, so he focused on it. A glow from spotlights on the
outside lit whatever covered them. The shadow gave the woman the appearance of
a halo—like an angel.

Hi, my name is D. V. Stone. I am a
multi-genre author of two independently published books. Felice, Shield-Mates
of Dar is a fantasy romance. Agent Sam Carter and the Mystery at Branch Lake is
a mid-grade paranormal. Recently, Rock House Grill was released by Wild Rose
Press. Rainbow Sprinkles, a novella released on July 8th. I also
host Welcome to the Campfire and A Peek Through the Window, both weekly blogs. Here’s
a little more about me.
Born
in Brooklyn, D.V. Stone has moved around a bit and even lived for a time on a
dairy farm in Minnesota before moving back east. Throughout her wandering, she
always considered herself a Jersey Girl. She met and married the love of her
life, Pete—a lifelong Jersey Man, and moved this time to Sussex County. They
live with Hali, a mixed breed from the local shelter, and their cat Baby.
D.V.’s
career path varied from working with the disabled to become a volunteer EMT,
which in turn led to working in hospital emergency rooms and then in a women’s
state prison. After a few years, she took a break from medicine and became the
owner of Heavenly Brew, a specialty coffee shop in Sparta, NJ, and a small
restaurant in Lafayette. Life handed some setbacks, and she ended up back in
the medical field, but this time in a veterinary emergency hospital.
“Thank
you for taking the time to read about me. Each time you open the pages to one
of my books, I hope you’ll be swept away by the story and find
encouragement in your own life, never to give up on hope.”

My Review:
Despite the
action and suspense throughout this book I thought it was a very easy book to
read. The scenes are vivid – the characters are three-dimensional – the plot is
well thought out. Red herrings go in all directions without being confusing,
but the ending is unexpected. This is what I appreciate from a well-written
mystery. And, let’s not forget about romance. Shay and Aiden move slowly and
gently toward each other like two intelligent, mature, adults actually would.
Another thing I appreciate. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.
Thank you so much for hosting me as well as your kind words about the book. D.

Thank you, Pam.🎂
ReplyDeleteD.V., it sounds like your medical background contributed a lot to this book!--Nancy
ReplyDeleteNancy, I've worked in either people medical or animal medical for about 40 years. Funny (now) story. When I wrote the Aden rehab part, my DH Peter was recovering from a severe leg injury as well. Kind of hands on research.
DeleteHappy Book Birthday again, D.V.! I'm celebrating with you! All the best.
ReplyDeleteGirls just wanna have fun!
