Thunder Bridge - Add this to your October's Thriller Book Reading. 
ON SALE NOW!

An solated women's shelter ... destined for tragedy. 

Just when you think you're safe! 

Wren Fern inherited two life-changing gifts the night her grandmother died: a sixth sense forewarning her of impending death and an isolated farmhouse at the foot of Thunder Bridge. 

Scarred by a violent past, Wren wastes no time transforming the property into Willow's Home, a financially struggling women’s shelter for victims fleeing domestic violence. While Wren acts as a lightning rod between the women and their abusive partners, she’s forced to make a choice when a battered woman arrives who jeopardizes the security of the remote shelter. Though Wren has vowed never to turn anyone away, it doesn’t take long before a series of  unnerving events beset the refuge and the evidence is undeniable: A stalker has set their sights on Willow's Home. 

Things unravel when a troubled resident with a shocking secret disappears in the middle of the night, leaving behind a mystery―and an enraged ex-husband. As the shelter shifts into a lockdown, a chain of devastating events threaten Wren’s attempts to save her shelter, and her life. 

Wren must protect her residents while she figures out who is in danger―and who is the danger, because not everyone entering the shelter is looking for a safe haven.

Since you gotta go 🎵
Oh, you had better go now.🎶
Just go now. 🎶
... before you see me cry.🎵 😭

Getting ready to send 
The Last Runway out into the world for a beta read, and I am beyond excited. (Terrified too!)

Love Ava! She's a badass second-wave feminist, and I can't wait to share her story with everyone. (Ava drives a 1965 Springtime Yellow Mustang. This is not the cover. )

The song sums it up perfectly. It is so strange to share a story, and characters, that you've had all to yourself for hundreds and hundreds of hours. Without judgement.

I will be sending this manuscript out into the query world, translation ... lots of patience needed.

A snippet from my book research! I hope you enjoy my Sherman tank escapades! 

Once I was on this beast, worried eyes were rolling when they realized I wasn't quite dressed for it with my strappy sandles. 

Love that my author card opens so many doors and allows me to meet the most amazing people ... who are absolutely wonderful to me. I'm so grateful to everyone at the Canadian Tank Museum.

Ken, Jonathan, Jessie, Sam ... thank you so much. You guys are awesome, and you make one heck of a team.

Finding this record shop was a trip today! It fits right in with my late sixties manuscript. 'The Last Runway' (working title)

I miss buying the latest album on a Friday night after work! Creedance Clearwater ... love this band.

Fourth draft ... 
 

Writing full time made this possible ... and working through the odd background headache, wolfing down unsafe amounts of take-out food, giving up a little reading / TV time, fewer long lazy friend calls... that was the worst. But, I did it!

So now what? Rest? Not in your life. I love this story too much, and I love getting up every day, pretending I'm a second wave feminist, living in the 60's. 

I'll set this draft aside for exactly two days, because I'm forcing myself to, then ... I'll be getting it ready for beta readers. And while they have it, I'll be ripping through this thing for a fifth time, double checking my research, adding a few immersive details, and finishing those bell-bottom jeans I started sewing a month into my first draft ... way back in February. 

Thank you @footpadnomadbooks for the trinket box! Love it!

Do you have a passion?

Author research is the best!!

Needed this little field trip for my work in progress. Working title ...
 THE LAST RUNWAY. 

Author research is one of the best parts of the writing process. And getting to actually touch my fave aircraft ... the Avro Lancaster ... heaven!
Thank you Erin for the amazing tour.

 I played in one of these when I was a child.  Flew it daily! It waa retired  after an RCAF search and rescue career on the east coast. 

I was so grateful to have a million and one questions answered  by my knowledable host. Thank you Erin for being my guide on this amazing tour. (You definitely have a character name-sake in my newest book!) The museum is lucky to have you. 

There are so many aircrafts on display.  And the communications/ radio room entrigued both my hubby and myself.  The Fly Zone flight simulators were facinating! So realistic! 

You really should check this historical gem out!  And this weekend (August 29th) there is a Warbird Fly-In ... so it would be the perfect time!

Loving my goovy new office! Especially the lava lamp... completely into it. 
I can't wait to start editing my sixties novel, and the retro office vibes will make the process sooo cool. And the coral ... can you dig it? The old winter colours were such a drag. 
Peace, man. Hope you get a chance to chill out this weekend!

Okay ... I know! That's enough with the sixties lingo. A little over top there, Lara.
