My Novel -- Islands of Eden series Book One: Ebon Wings

She’s a stunning vision of beauty and innocence so why, from the dark bayous of Louisiana to islands of the Caribbean, do so many fear her as bruja – a witch?

Grace Theriot, thirty-one and unmarried, leaves the jungles of Argentina and the mission where she works as a nurse, returning home to the remote coastal parishes of Louisiana – a place where secrets are easily concealed in a culture of powerful faith and equally powerful superstition. Never did she imagine discovering an impossible love with John Cheramie as they embark on a journey among islands of the Caribbean...their Islands of Eden.

She looks so content, her thoughts so far away, her light brown eyes reflecting the tropical sunset of another Caribbean paradise. So why must she soon leave him? What secrets does she hide? John wonders at his own self-obsession that kept him from seeing the beautiful woman she always was. Twelve years, building an impenetrable fortress after his wife’s death, why now does he feel so vulnerable with a woman he hardly knows?

He might never discover the answers when their paradise becomes a nightmare. John sacrifices his life to save her. But Grace will not leave him, embracing him with her touch. And in her arms, he senses her powerful consciousness, her wondrous miracle, her amazing secret...


Award winning "Ebon Wings" begins its journey in New Orleans where the romance and mystery of a culture and people have inspired this unique fictional love story of John and Grace.
