A week away was supposed to change nothing. When Marlena Evans agrees to speak at an Empowering Women lecture series, she hopes the time away from Salem will give her a chance to breathe and escape the growing tension surrounding John, Kristen, and the secrets threatening to tear their family apart. Instead, one devastating accident changes everything. As old wounds reopen and impossible choices are forced into the light, John and Marlena must confront the truths they've spent too long avoiding. In the aftermath of tragedy, both will discover that sometimes the most painful transformations are also the ones that lead us home. Set during the turbulent fake-baby era, Transformations explores love, loss, forgiveness, and the enduring bond between two people determined to find their way back to each other.

When love and pain intersect, and life altering decisions aren't easy. Sometimes saying goodbye is easier than actually letting go. Set in 1991, this retelling of John, Marlena, Isabella, and Roman's story comes after Mexico. It examines the pain of abandonment that comes from a father saying goodbye, the ultimate betrayal, a love denied, and the impact of C-PTSD on a man who refuses to acknowledge he needs help coping with seven years of torture.

This series begins Easter 1996. It will take our couple through a year of holidays, because we didn't get holidays with them together and their kids still little, which was so unfair. Not only to make Christmas 97 about Roman, Sami & Eric after everything we went through, but then to age Belle and Brady before we could have any time with them.

Their love was rumored fact and fiction, blurring the lines between reel and real. After a decade apart, John Black, a retired baseball player and now Hollywood star, reaches out to Marlena Evans with an opportunity she cannot refuse. The challenge? They must contend with feelings of longing and attraction, leading to an arrangement.

Three years after they said goodbye in Mexico, John is engaged to Kristen Blake, and Marlena is living a quiet, if not boring, life with Roman. One fateful choice, a flight to Seattle, and Stefano's desire to rip John from his daughter's life changes everything forever.

John struggles with his love for two women. One who is dying, and the other belongs to someone else... but she used to be his.

2015. I always wanted more build up to their reunion. I wanted to see them dating and actually finding their way back to one another.

John Black's world changed forever in February of 1995. Losing his son and the one woman who always held his heart nearly killed him. Five years later his marriage to Kristen is falling apart. His obsession with finding the last of Stefano's clones might destroy him... or possibly bring him back from the darkness he's called home for the last five years.

John Black has had many injuries in his life. This one, however, threatens not just him, but those he loves as well.

John and Marlena deal with her memory loss and Alex North's control. Each short story is its own separate short, basically how I wanted or thought a conversation/event should have gone during this awful storyline long ago.
