After her mother is literally swept away by the savage winds off the Atlantic coast of Salts, Scotland, never to be seen again, the orphaned Silver is feeling particularly unmoored. Taken in by the mysterious keeper of a lighthouse on Cape Wrath, Silver finds an anchor in Mr. Pew—blind, as old and legendary as a unicorn, and a yarn spinner of persuasive power. The tale he has to tell Silver is that of a nineteenth-century clergyman named Babel Dark, whose life was divided between a loving light and a mask of deceit. Peopled with such luminaries as Charles Darwin and Robert Louis Stevenson, Mr. Pew’s story within a story within a story soon unfolds like a map. It’s one that Silver must follow if she’s to be led through her own darkness, and to find her own meaning in life, in this novel by a winner of the Costa, Lambda, and E.M. Forster Awards, the author of Oranges are Not the Only Fruit; Why Be Happy When You Could Be Normal? and other acclaimed works. “In her sea-soaked and hypnotic eighth novel, Winterson turns the tale of an orphaned young girl and a blind old man into a fable about love and the power of storytelling…Atmospheric and elusive, Winterson's high-modernist excursion is an inspired meditation on myth and language.”—The New Yorker

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE WINDS OF DESTINY Love Lost Series Book 8 A Romance Suspense and Adventure Novel THERE IS POSITIVELY NO LOVE LIKE A LOST LOVE AND NO PAIN LIKE A SHATTERED HEART. The power of love brings hope. However, at times the steps toward love can cause pain and lead to a life of loneliness. We are all born to love with all the necessary courage to walk the path to it… no matter the roughness and no matter the hardships. That is true in most cases unless you are Casina Collins, a young woman born on an island twenty miles southeast of Port Aransas, Texas. Unless you are a young woman turning twenty-one and the only friends you have had for all those years were Zeus, Hercules, Robin Hood, and Poseidon. An adventurer by the name of Logan Duncan from Austin, Texas finds himself on the island after his vessel goes down in a storm, trying to escape civilization because of some terrible things he had done. Then there is Hanno, half beast and half man, who doesn’t like the fact that Logan has shown up on the island and becomes jealous as Hell over the eyes Logan Duncan has for Casina and she has for him. Casina Collins has only loved one man in her entire life, and that was her father, Edward Collins. That was until she saved Logan Duncan from his shipwreck on the jetties of the peninsula. Join the adventure of ups and downs in the newly found love between Casina and Logan. Watch the first time Logan gained consciousness after the shipwreck, lying on his back on the beach at Pelican Island. It was as though every ounce of breath left her body into the stormy surroundings like midnight smoke. Every time he kissed her, whether it was in Sherwood Forest or on a mountain top with Zeus commanding their every move, the stranger’s kisses made the world come to a stop for the beautiful young redhead. In Casina’s world, this was a new beginning. Not familiar with this kind of love, this is what falling in love is all about, a story she never wanted to come to an end. For so long, she longed for it and dreamed about it. Now, she can’t bear to lose it, but that might soon happen when Shannon Turner, another beautiful woman with long flowing blonde hair and a body to die for, follows Logan Duncan to the island in the middle of nowhere. Some say you can’t save someone from The Winds of Destiny, but Casina did just that, at least at first. She walked some of Logan’s path with him and protected him from the demons who would end his mission too soon. Casina became first a friend, then a lover, and gave him all her love when it hurt to do so. Read as the Winds of Destiny change direction in the last two chapters. When they change back in the other direction? Will Zeus save the day? Or, will the Robinhood save the day or Poseidon comes from the deep to help the two lovers escape the ever-expanding love triangles that have evolved. Happy Reading!!!

Book excerpt: No bride expected to be steering a boat in her wedding dress, running away from the day she’d been planning for months. But that was me. I was that runaway bride. In a boat that now had no fuel, stranded on a stretch of dangerous water, and my phone was now swimming with the fishes. The man who rescued me lived in a lighthouse and was the strong and very silent type, who also happened to foster rescue cats. He was now part of the lifeboat crew and the opposite of the geeky boy he’d been in school. And I’d been the girl he’d secretly crushed on. Thane didn’t want a relationship. He wanted a quiet life with no complications. I wanted to get under another man to get over the one I’d left at the altar, then I wanted to get the rest of my life on track, back in my small-town home in Puffin Bay. Neither of us expected the little twist that came our way.
