What would you do if you were able to meet all those people from generations ago, who helped to make you who you are today? Not only to meet them, but experience their stories as they live them, first hand. Would you want to? To be able to share in the warmth of their love and laughter but also endure the pain and sorrow, which  often overshadowed the joys. What if you knew how many days they would have to walk the earth, who they would fall in love with, how many children they would have and how many they would bury much too soon. Would you want to go back? 

If you already knew how their stories will end, what they will achieve in life but also the exact day they will die and how, what would you do? Would you  listen a little more closely to what they had to say?  Hold on a little longer to that unexpected warm hug? Drink in the sound of their voices and look a little deeper into their Technicolor eyes, which have always been only flat-gray in your families dusty old photo albums?

For Torie Mills the answer is yes, she will take it all and she will cherish every moment

A top #100 for Time Travel Romance for 65 days on amazon. See my blog for more info, excerpts and a peek at the cover for book #2 out later this year.

A steamy contemporary romance with a unique time travel twist and lots of suspense and humor.

    As the final scene of Poltergeist ended, where the TV was rolled out of the motel room and the credits started scrolling, I clicked off the DVD.

     “So what do you think?”

     Dave was slouched on the sofa with my legs across his lap and was running his hands up and down my bare thighs.

     I sat up, turned to sit sideways on the sofa, and tucked my legs up, leaning against his hip as he reclined with his feet up on the coffee table. He shrugged, reached out to take hold of my shoulders and bring me to him for a kiss, and then chuckled.

     “What? So you think the house is gonna crumple up and be sucked out into the cornfields?”

    “Not that part. Do you think the house could be built on hallowed ground?”

     “No,” he said decidedly, “and even if it were, it would be Indians that would be haunting us, not our families.”

     “What about our families trying to tell us something…”

     “Torie, baby, just stop trying to figure it out and enjoy the ride.” He sat up and then squeezed my leg as he stood and went to the DVD player to eject the movie. “Let’s run to Oskie and return this. We can grab lunch.” He waved the jewel case in my direction.

     “I think we need to consider…”

     “I don’t see the problem. I’m enjoying the time warps, even if I do make a fool out of myself sometimes when I don’t know who I am or where I am. I’m finding out so much about the way things were constructed—and farming. I had no idea about what was really required to get a field cleared or a crop in the ground.”

     “Yeah, right, crops! When you left the dance the other night with Amelia, you seemed to figure out what to do with her pretty quick. You plowed her field!” I spat with irritation.

     “Torie, that was two days ago. I wish I wouldn’t have let you get that out of me. Again, babe, what was I supposed to do? She was my wife.”

     “Of course she just happened to be the most beautiful woman in town,” I said grumpily. “You couldn’t have had a headache?”

     He gave me one of his smokin’ hot, sexy looks. “I love you, Beautiful.”

     He approached the sofa and bent to kiss me, and I gave him a smooch. Clearly, he was not going to apologize for his indiscretion and seemed pretty darn pleased with himself regarding his Amelia experience. “Oh, stop that smirking,” I ordered with a smile, as he pulled me off the sofa by my hands.

     “Let’s go,” he said, shooing me toward the door by giving my butt a gentle swat.

Days in top #100 on Amazon for Time Travel Romance 33

Amazon link

Amazon 5 star review

The best read in a long time,

This novel is full of interesting details and fascinations, a complex story, wonderful setting, and wild ending. I liked the heroine and hero (a must!) Torie as a genealogy geek was right on the mark. Also, appreciated the story's nod to the Make a Wish Foundation

Torie, a romance writer had become a millionaire from her two published books. I certainly hope this is possible because Dana Roquet deserves it.

I'd like to submit one of our books for consideration. I'm a self-published author who started a small indie press called Mirror Images Publishing. Not seeing a lot of advantages yet of using my publishing house dream name, but we'll see. I have two books out badly in need of reviews. Kingsblood needs more attention now, but I'll gladly accept reviews for either.

Waiting Game (tale one)
By J. L. Ficks & J. E. Dugue
Publisher: Mirror Images Publishing ISBN: B00AVBAWTW
Published: January 2012
Formats: Softcover, PDF, all eDevices Pages: 150
Genre: Epic fantasy
Description: Shade has grown into Doljinaar's most widely feared assassin. A Dark Elf, trained in the black forests of Jui-Sae, he was once part of an elite caste of assassins known as the Unseen. A tale of pride and villiany, Shade stakes his life and reputation against a powerful crimelord to prove once and for all that he is the true killer of killers. How long can one assassin hold out until he falls victim to his own deadly waiting game?

Kingsblood (tale two)
By J. L. Ficks & J. E. Dugue
Publisher: Mirror Images Publishing ISBN: B00AVBAWTW
Published: Coming January 2013 Formats: Softcover, PDF, all eDevices Pages: 202

The Shaltearan Brotherhood, the most powerful assassin's guild in all Doljinaar, creeps out of the shadows eager to collect on the royal bounty. Shade must venture deep into the City of Kings, a concrete jungle completely hostile to his kind and face off against an entire guild of assassins. Among their numbers awaits a worthy adversary who has been dying to meet him. The time has come for the world’s darkest assassin to make a stand for a banner not his own...

For a review copy contact and please let me know which book. Thanks in advance! BTW, my few prior reviewers really recommended reading our books alongside our official homepage to reference characters, races, creatures, etc., which has a TON of world information. See link below.

Need Reviewer for my YA book. Keeper of Reign. Summary below.

Books written in blood. Most of them lost, their Keepers with them.A curse that befell a people. A Kingdom with no King. Life couldn’t get more harrowing for the Elfies, a blend of Elves and Fairies. Or for sixteen year old Jules Blaze. Or could it? 

Something in the air is brewing and Gehzurolle, the evil King of Euruliaf, and his army of Scorpents will invade and destroy the Kingdom of Reign and the Elfies. Already Gehzurolle’s agents, Whisperer and Rage, are secreted in Reign, ready to do their master’s bidding. 


But for Jules his nightmare had only just begun. First off, he has no idea where his father had gone off to, what with the war with the aggressive neighboring tribe, the Handoverans, who live across the brooke, then his grandparents mysteriously disappear, and his Keeper mother soon follows suit. Now Jules has to make sure his four siblings stay safe. And alive. Especially since he and his family have inadvertently invoked the interest of Gehzurolle. But why? 

In his quest to find answers, and to locate his missing family members and the Ancient Books, Jules loses control over his situations, faces one dilemma after another to save his family, and his Kingdom, and uncovers a family secret that could save them, or kill them all.

Out of the Past

If your group will consider my self published indie book, I would LOVE it! Thanks! Dana Roquet

 

Torie Mills was the first to admit she had issues-big time! She was a successful romance author, who didn't know the first thing about romance. Was in a dead end relationship with a high-powered, emotionally unavailable man and that suited her just fine. But when she decided to pack up and move to small town Iowa to find her roots and build a new life, she found much more than she ever dreamed possible. 

Dave Cameron was a passionate, stand-up guy who had a successful renovation career, good friends and a passion for small town Iowa that was contagious. What Dave didn't have was a woman to share his life with. 

Torie finds that Dave has just the kind of vision needed to help her restore her family’s 1870 homestead and together they bring the old Victorian house back to life. After Torie moves in, she discovers that restoring the house has opened a portal into the past. Time traveling each night to the Fremont of old, becomes her wonderful escape and her secret obsession. 

When Torie falls passionately in love with Dave, he is swept into the travels as well—until they realize too late, that there was evil in the past that would have been better left alone…
