“Moments define us. A split-second decision can shape your future, and you don’t realize it until it’s too late.”
Peyton Johnson:
The day I meet my boyfriend’s best friend, King; my king disappears. Everything’s fine when my gaming friend fades away like smoke because Theo consumes me entirely. Theodore Johnson becomes my husband, and our life is beautiful until it isn’t.
Theo’s gone and all that’s left of him is the unborn child in my stomach.
Silas King:
The day I meet my best friend’s girl, my heart recognizes her as my Peyton. I loved her first, but that doesn’t matter. Theo’s the only family I’d ever known and compared to him, I’m ugly and scarred. Peyton’s king disappears because Theo is everything I’m not. He will make her happy. I think that will be enough for me to let go, but it isn’t.
Then he dies, leaving her behind…Until he comes back and I’m the only one that can see him.
Theodore Johnson:
The day I meet Peyton; my life is complete. I want to give her the world, but life doesn’t always work out that way. Now, I’m fog, slipping through her life without her knowing. Silas is the only one that knows I’m here, but it doesn’t matter. He’s going to steal her away. I can’t let him.
I loved her first, and forever will.
A romantic standalone with a ghostly twist!
Interview with Michelle Gross
How did you become involved with the subject or theme of your book?
I’ve always been a huge paranormal fan, so conjuring up stories with ghosts or anything otherworldly is just another day inside my head.
What were your goals and intentions in this book, and how well do you feel you achieved them?
My goal for this book was to write a book with a ghost—more accurately, the female main character’s dead husband haunting/existing around her.
And I wanted the love interest to be her husband’s best friend.
Originally, I feel like I intended for this book to be funny with the best friend being the only one to see the ghost and putting him in some awkward situations, but once I started writing, it was quickly apparent that this book was going to be angsty instead.
So, it might have changed from how I previously saw it, but I achieved what I set out to write about.
What was the hardest part of writing this book?
Probably writing some of the actions and choices these characters made. Everyone is flawed. No one is perfect. Everyone made a mistake in this book.
What did you enjoy most about writing this book?
The secrets. Everyone had one.
Where there alternate endings you considered?
No. Everything that happened at the end is something I wouldn’t change.
Can you share some stories about people you met while researching this book?
I have a friend that’s a teacher. Since my main character is a teacher, I asked her for everything I needed to know in order to be accurate.
What genre of books do you enjoy reading?
Anything with romance. It doesn’t have to be the main focus, as long as it’s at least a subplot. I love fantasy, paranormal, alien—you name it, and I’ll probably enjoy it.
Author Bio:
Michelle is from a small town in Eastern Kentucky where possums try to blend in with the cats on the porch and bears are likely to chase your pets—this is very true, it happened with her sister’s dog. Despite the extra needed protection for your pets, she loves the mountains she calls home. She has a man and twin girls who are the light of her life and the reason she’s slightly crazy.
As a kid, she was that cousin, that friend, that sister and daughter, the talker who could spin a tale and make-believe into any little thing so it was no surprise when she found love in reading, and figured all these characters inside her head needed an outlet. They wanted to be heard, so she wrote.
The voices keep growing faster than she gets the time to write.
The stories are never going to end. That’s perfectly okay, though. We never want to stop an adventure.
She writes and loves many different genres so sign up to her mailing list to keep updated on her releases!
