"A little song in my heart?" Not really. What Jo has is closer to a symphony, with a variety of instruments pouring out their sounds in unity while fighting for dominance. The melodies parade around her head, and then gently float up to the sky like brightly-colored balloons. It's an eternal symphony, and she is the conductor. Jo has taken daydreaming to the point of delirious bliss, and she tends to wander around the edges of reality. Everyone who is "real" has ripped themselves away from her in fear. She's sinking deeper into the radiant sea of denial. But there are always ripples of truth that poke through the protective wraps around her heart. And she might be starting to learn that not every song is a lullaby. (Some of these I've posted on goodreads as well. I hope you enjoy reading them!♡)

It started with a War. It ended with a Watch. But the Watch was only the beginning. The Watch counts down the days until you meet your Soul Mate. Five-hundred years into the future, in a world ruled by science, Sera Grey is a mystery, starting with the strange circumstance of her birth. Her whole life she has been told the same story; her mother contracted a disease that resulted in immaculate conception. Sera was the result. But what if this story was a lie? When Sera's Watch ticks down to zero as she meets Oliver Jackson, her life gets turned upside-down. As she tries to unravel the mystery of her Watch, and the mystery of the Scientists, she may just unravel the mystery of her birth at the same time. NOTE: This story is currently being rewritten on my profile!!!

An incredible true story - in 1964 my father, British Javelin champion John McSorley, built a man-size box and shipped it from Heathrow airport. The airfreight was human; his friend Reg Spiers, a penniless young Australian athlete desperate to get home and win back his girl. He was in for the ride of his life; a nightmarish cocktail of turbulent cargo holds, forklift truck disasters and mind-altering dehydration. He’d risk everything for Annie, but little did she know, they'd soon be skipping bail on drug-smuggling charges. Follow the true-crime exploits of the young couple and their years of gripping, high-stakes dramas through India, Africa and Sri Lanka.
