We love celebrating new releases at Inkspell Publishing. Some are sweeter than others! Paul is a relative-newbie in the writing business. He's had both fiction and non-fiction books published, including books which were excerpted in Reader’s Digest (Caught in the Act, Penguin Group, 2011) and reviewed in Publisher’s Weekly (Life, with Cancer, Health Communications, Inc., foreword by Anna Quindlen, 2012). From the Ashes, a 2010 collaborative book written with a Gina Russo, who survived the deadly 2003 Station Nightclub fire in RI which claimed the lives of 100 people, became the basis of a 2013 documentary web series, The Station, which Paul produced. Paul has been interviewed as part of several documentary programs, including NBC’s, I Survived a Serial Killer, featuring the true crime story depicted in the book, Caught in the Act. Paul had his first romance book, Reunion of Souls, published in June 2015 by Liquid Silver Press. His second romance novella, Enchanted Desire, was published by Wild Rose Press in June, 2016. Alright, he's not really a newbie but his books are just beginning to capture big attention. His latest release, Soul Awakening, features a love triangle and also a torn-between-two lovers story line. But we'll let you check out an excerpt and fall in love yourself.... “You like him, don’t you?” Braden asked. Alecia hesitated, searching for the words. “It’s all right. I want you to be together. I don’t think you’ll find a better guy. I mean, now that I’m gone from your life.” Alecia gazed at him, tears welling up in her eyes with the re-realization that Braden was dead. Being able to see him again had played a cruel trick on her mind, and she temporarily forgot he wasn’t alive. The same soul-rending heartache she experienced when she first lost him came back all at once, like a wound that had just begun healing suddenly being ripped open again. “I only want what’s best for you,” Braden said. “I still love you. I’ll always love you.” Tears streamed from her eyes. “I love you.” Her lips were trembling. “Will you be able to return again?” “No.” “I won’t be able to see you anymore?” Braden shook his head slowly. His eyes were heavy, but he maintained a faint smile. Alecia couldn’t help herself and took a step closer to him. A dim pulse of light and energy disturbed the space between them. She raised her left arm slowly, holding her hand palm-out in front of her face. As Braden reached for her, there was a burst of dazzling white light. Momentarily blinded, Alecia couldn’t see a thing, but when their hands came together, she felt his fingers intertwine with hers. Soul Awakening: Something otherworldly is happening in a small Texas town. As a small Texas town mourns the tragic death of its high school football star, Alecia is struggling to adjust to life without the boy she has dated since sixth grade and thought she would be with forever. When Braden comes to her as an apparition, she finds herself falling for Riley, Braden’s best friend and teammate. Has Braden returned to spy on her, or for some other reason? Alecia’s not sure, but she soon realizes she must find a way to accept Braden’s death and welcome love back into her life, or risk losing everything.
