How Dark The World: A Shadows May Fall Story
***Unedited*** A companion story to my novel Shadows May Fall. *Folks who have been reading along - you may have noticed that some of the parts have been unpublished (the ones set in 1904 and 1908.) The reason for this is that while I really enjoyed delving into the past with these characters and fleshing out Daniel and Lillian, they weren't really adding anything and coming up with a third one to fill the gap was just that -- filling the gap. I'll post them over at my website once this story is complete.Complete
That's Amore
In Tuscany, the air tastes of vino rosso and roses, and every evening feels like the beginning of a song. Isabella Marshall arrives at Villa delle Rosa expecting only a summer escape - a season of journals, quiet mornings, and the distant hum of village life. But under lantern-lit skies and firefly nights, she collides with Giuliano Moretti: stubborn, magnetic, and rooted to the vineyard like its oldest vines. What begins with clashes and stolen glances soon unfolds into Vespa rides through cypress-lined roads, laughter echoing in moonlit courtyards, and a kiss that feels like destiny whispered sempre. Yet beneath the beauty lies rivalry, family secrets, and the tug of America waiting across the sea. From feasts in the vineyard to festivals blazing with fireworks, Isabella must choose between the life she left behind and the dolce vita that has captured her soul. With roses blooming, Biscotto the golden retriever racing at her side, and love rising like lanterns into the Tuscan sky, That's Amore is a sun-drenched ode to passion, family, and the summer that changes everything.
