#1 Best Seller in Time Travel Romance and Magical Realism Why does Kat feel she knows Will when she's never met him before? Or has she? Kat has been too busy fighting the demons of her past to focus on love. But when she meets charismatic Will in London her world is turned upside down. An enigmatic woman named Destiny, saying she has a secret to share, whisks Kat and Will off to magical midnight parties where champagne flows freely and nothing is what it seems, almost like the soirées are happening in another time. And then there are those dreams that unfold in an elegant 19th century British castle... Torn between fear of the unknown and fascination at what might happen between her and Will, Kat must find the courage to change her life and discover true love. Alternating between the reality of day and the mystery of night, this story of déjà vu and righting past wrongs will delight fans of Susanna Kearsley and Sarah Addison Allen. <h2>Interview with the Author</h2> What was your inspiration to write Close to Destiny? I used to stay at a beautiful, mysterious London hotel for business trips. The dim and elegant setting made me think of clandestine parties, midnight encounters, dreams. I wove these elements-with a dash of magic-into this love story. It seems as if it might fall into several genres? It's contemporary literary fiction / women's fiction, yet includes magical realism and a touch of paranormal romance. Readers say it reminds them of the time travel romance The Time Traveler's Wife and novels by Sarah Addison Allen. I included mystical romance to transport the reader to another place... and to question our notions of reality. And in general, I aim to write fiction that is fast-paced, with surprising plot twists. What message do you hope readers take with them? The book deals with facing (or refusal to face) mistakes of the past, healing old wounds and starting over. And for any of us who has ever wondered, "Do I have a soulmate? Will I ever find my soulmate?" this story addresses that in a unique way. Another important theme is (big surprise) destiny. How much control do we have over our own destiny? What are your favorite genres to read? I enjoy a wide variety, but my favorites are literary fiction and women's fiction with strong female protagonists. And I like a little twist of magical realism.

Close to Destiny

Stories by best-selling and award-winning authors cover themes of love, friendship and memories in this compelling compilation. A rock &amp; roll concert that will forever be etched in the minds of the fans who witnessed it. An adult orphan searching for a "forever home." A survivor from World War II, on a journey to find one last memory of her mother. What do these stories have in common? They all answer the question: What will you leave behind? Long after we've left this world, our legacy remains. Or doesn't. Or remains only in the minds of those who knew us, those whose lives we've touched. Those we've written to, or about. What mark would you leave? How should people remember you? Should they remember you? This chilling, stunning, eerie, and hopeful collection of fiction and nonfiction stories will stick with you long after you've finished reading it. Includes stories from New York Times best selling author Regina Calcaterra, Sherwood Anderson Award winner Kristopher Jansma and Canadian best selling author Marissa Stapley, along with 11 others. Interview with the Editors We see some big names in Legacy: Regina Calcaterra, whose memoir Etched in Sand was a New York Times best seller; Kristopher Jansma (The Unchangeable Spots of Leopards), winner of the 2014 Sherwood Anderson Award for Fiction; Jenny Milchman (Cover of Snow), winner of the Mary Higgins Clark Award for best suspense novel of 2013—and that's just to name a few! How did you manage to assemble such a list of talented authors? We were inspired by the #30Authors blog event hosted by The Book Wheel, where authors reviewed their favorite books of 2014 on participating blogs. So we thought, how about featuring the work of these authors in an anthology? We liked the idea of best-selling authors, award-winning authors and a few talented debut authors collaborating on a project. So we invited them to participate, and to our delight, they were just as excited to contribute to such an anthology as we were to publish it. Why the theme of legacy? Words remain. And the writer's art is created through words. So it seemed the perfect subject to explore through fiction and nonfiction stories. What is the meaning of life? How do you find meaning in life? Sometimes the answer is in death, which these stories convey. What sorts of tales will we find in the book? Our writers wrote along a common theme, legacy, yet each story is very different. It is interesting to see each author's take on the idea. You'll find the classic love story, stories of family secrets, friendship and life-changing experiences, mother-daughter relationships, father-son relationships, an on-the-edge-of-your-seat thriller, a World War II mystery and Holocaust remembrance, stories of mean girls, and a tribute to rock &amp; roll. Legacy has something for everyone.
