Medalist for Cross Genre Fiction, 2015 New Apple Book Awards Behind a single door lie many forms of Bliss… Greg Ellison is a veteran reclaiming his life from the ghosts of war and what could have been. He doesn’t know that researching an unexplained mystery will change his life forever. TRIANGULATING BLISS is a heartwarming and entertaining novel of second chances, romance, mystery, and the supernatural. Greg learns of the suicide of a local sports hero. Reports claim that the suicide was linked to a disappearance from Bliss. The story hits home when Greg finds that family secrets tie him to the sports star. Greg meets Lois Atwater, the vivacious owner of Bliss Bar &amp; Grill, and learns that the athlete’s disappearance was not the only one. Lois and four others have encountered the “Bliss Triangle” as well. Lois reunites with the love of her life and learns that love never dies; a woman, broken by life, sees how her life might be; a musician's wife stumbles upon her own grave; a son, caring for his dying mother, learns that endings can be beginnings; and a financial advisor with a shady past finds out how close he is to losing everything. All of their stories include one figure: a man with dark hair, blue eyes, and a strong jaw. Then, it’s Greg’s turn. Greg’s encounter with the mysterious forces at Bliss changes everything. He learns that what brought him to Bliss is not as it appears and that the lives touched by Bliss are powerfully interconnected across space and time.

Advance Reviews: “A well written and engaging novel, I was completely glued to the pages. Once I started reading it, I could not put it down…It's a fascinating story, full of twists and has elements of paranormal, mystery, romance. There are some really exciting and touching parts. Highly recommend!” LibriAmoriMiei “The power behind the story leaves you wondering, leaves you turning the pages, and most definitely leaves you wanting more from this author.” Undercover Book Reviews “I’ve read books about disappearances, even mysterious ones, but haven’t read anything like this. It’s not just the actual plot that makes this book unique; it’s the way in which the author tells the story… There were a few times I was at a loss as to where the author was taking us, and was very surprised and delighted to see where we ended up...I found the story really interesting and enjoyed where the author took the disappearances and how she described their time ‘lost’ and the return. It gave it a very sci-fi feel, and I thought that was brilliant. Overall, I think this is a great read. I would love to see more by this author…I thought this story was unique and interesting and was told well.” Natural Bri Book Review

Angels do indeed come in fur suits. It’s love at first sight...for both of them. An abandoned yet tenacious pup with one blue eye and one brown eye beats the odds and is enlisted as one woman’s WINGDOG. It's a role he takes seriously, but he knows that his human needs more than just another set of eyes and ears. He must show her how to laugh and how to love again. His loyalty knows no bounds, and he takes his duties seriously riding shotgun as the pair travel life’s highway. A dog may be man’s best friend, but the truth is…A WINGDOG is truly a woman’s gift.
