About this ebook

Behind the waterfall waits 1796--and the girl who is slowly capturing his heart. But if Mark travels through time to save Susanna, will her brutal world trap him too?

 

While mountain biking in the woods, Mark Lewis spots a mysterious girl dressed in odd clothing, standing behind a waterfall. When she comments on the strange machine he's riding, he suspects something isn't right. When Susanna claims to be an indentured servant from 1796, he wonders if she's crazy, yet he feels compelled to find out more.

 

Mark enters a long-distance relationship with Susanna through the temperamental barrier of Whisper Falls. Curious about her world, Mark searches through history to learn about the brutal life she's trapped in. But knowledge can be dangerous. Soon he must choose between changing the past--or dooming the girl he can't stop thinking about to a lifetime of misery.

 

PRAISE for Whisper Falls:

"Whisper Falls crosses over into so many different genres that I would recommend it to any reader who is interested in historical fiction, thrillers, fantasy, love stories or time travel. [Youth librarian, Boyd County Libraries WV, USA]

"The history is well researched, and readers will enjoy the realistic portrayal of (US) southern life in the late 1700s... Whisper Falls is a fun, action-packed story…" [School Library Journal]

"Whisper Falls is captivating! The themes of love and hate in its many forms and nuances are timeless and will appeal to all generations... I had a hard time putting this book down until I had savored the last page. And I certainly didn't want it to end. Another book? Yes, please!" MK Ward

    I decided to read this after finishing the author's Wish trilogy. This is a carefully researched, sensitive and intriguing historical story with a bit of magical realism. Readers who like time travel, romance and very likable characters will very much enjoy it. Halfway through, I ordered the other two of the series that are available in print.
