A Kiss Out of Time, a Georgina’s Ghost Story

Seventeen year-old Georgina Claythorne’s ability to talk to ghosts leads her to discover one haunting the portrait of Eric Toomey, a young Civil War soldier, at her grandmother’s antique shop in Ocean Grove, New Jersey. The portrait, part of an heirloom collection is one of several items from which Georgina “picks up paranormal activity”. Georgina becomes caught up in the mystery of Eric’s former life, her unnatural attraction to the ghost, and her changing relationship with long-time friend and fellow ghost hunter, Jake Hanlon. All this complicates what was supposed to be a boring summer. Can Georgina help Eric’s spirit or will doing so put those she cares for in danger?

So, when she comes down to work in Ocean Grove, New Jersey for the summer, it’s no surprise she meets the spirits haunting the quaint seaside town.

Winter Writing

Wintertime brought chilly weather, sleet, and snow to the Northeast. Huddling under a plaid throw blanket, sipping hot cider or cocoa, and reading made it less bleak. I listen to my favorite classical music station, WQXR, Sirius radio, or my collection of classic rock and pop songs from my CD library.

I’ve returned to my passion of writing and republished my two young adult novels featuring a ghost hunter at the Jersey Shore in A Kiss Out of Time and its sequel A Dance Out of Time, and a case of past lives returning to solve the crime of smuggling in Mexico in my adult paranormal Sacred Fires.

As the saying goes, there’s no time like the present to get things done. Being fully-retired helps too. After many years in education, I’m fortunate that I can now write more or less full-time. In the works are two more novels and a memoir. That should keep me busy into Spring!
