About the novel, The Mercy of Thin Air
New Orleans, 1920s. Raziela Nolan is in the throes of a magnificent love affair when she dies in a tragic accident. In an instant, she leaves behind her one true love and her dream of becoming a doctor--but somehow, she still remains. Immediately after her death, Razi chooses to stay between--a realm that exists after life and before whatever lies beyond it.
Seventy-five years later, in this ghost-like state, Razi takes residence with a troubled couple whose history mirrors her own. Her intervention in their lives forces her to face the truth of what happened to her beloved Andrew and the nature of her very existence.
Part love story, part ghost story, The Mercy of Thin Air is an exploration of our fragile human lives and memories.

As the Spinners sung,
"WHENEVER YOU CALL ME,
WHENEVER YOU NEED ME
I'LL BE AROUND”
DEEP... my heart and soul is endless,
My time is only for those who take me as I am
You can have me
But if you break me
I have already forgiving you
As God would have me to do
So come to me
Love me
Try to understand me
If you can't
Don't fear me
Just take more time
To know me
My friend

A passage from my best selling romantic erotic novel, come take a ride in BRUSH STROKES @ Amazon.com
“A man may admire what a woman does for a living; he may admire her education and social circle. He may be enamored with her physical beauty, but he only truly falls in love, with the softest and warmest part of her, her soul.”
