Never Fully Walking Through the Door
The end of World War I was supposed to bring peace, an end to turmoil. But then, the inner turmoil begins. Unspoken pain, unspoken certainties, who will be the first to make the move... and wanting desperately to find someone to love you for who you are... we have all been there. The thrill of that first moment when you think you are in love, and when you can't tell the difference between wanting to be in love versus actually loving. Seeming short but long, seeming long but short... Victoria will have to find her path and her way of loving both herself and others around her. And to distinguish what is real versus what is desired. Thank you so much for all your support, for reading, for gifting, for contributing your hard-earned Power Stones. In the end, this novel is about vulnerability, and how comfortable we are with facing our vulnerabilities and "being" despite the pain and uncertainties that confront us every time we choose a path. So as you read, take a moment to think about yourself, your vulnerabilities, your pain, and remember what it was like at that moment and how long it took for you to overcome it. And don't judge Victoria, Vernon, Serena, and the Callahan men so harshly... And how now, all that seems to be a hazy, distant memory.

The thrill of that first moment when you think you are in love, and when you can't tell the difference between wanting to be in love versus actually loving. Seeming short but long, seeming long but short... the female lead, Victoria Brown, will have to find her path and her way of loving both herself and others around her. And to distinguish what is real versus what is desired. And do not assume that the male lead, Vernon Anderson, is strong and has all the answers either. He deals with his own set of vulnerabilities. Watch as the characters and the masks they wear help and hurt them. Just as the masks that we wear in real life help and hurt us. And sometimes hurt us more and cripple us from finding new opportunities and love. Thank you so much for all your support, for reading, for gifting, for contributing your hard-earned Power Stones.
