START OF BACK COVER TEXT - Christine Grey, one of the greatest musical talents of her generation, has money, success, an army of doting fans, yet has never felt more alone. About to drown in a life of pain, secrets and excess; Chris jumps into a river to complete the drowning.

Willow Bowman, a nurse and happily married woman, has a life filled with love and security. Driving up to a bridge in time to see someone jump, Willow becomes an unlikely hero.

The events of this one night cause each to self-reflect, changing both of their lives forever.

Twilight is a book of discover, of love. - END OF BACK COVER TEXT

This reader always enjoys a story by Kim Pritekel. I've read all of her published books and all of her online stories (at least those I've found). Her writing is generally good for a good dose of angst and frustration, both elements of a real winner.

Imagine being saved from suicide by a clown. That's exactly what happens to Christine Grey - a successful recording star who has had enough. The clown is Willow Bowman - a nurse who picks up extra cash at birthday parties with her outrageous persona. After saving the musician, Willow takes a personal interest in her recovery and the two become friends. As their relationship develops, the nurse questions her deteriorating relationship with her husband and her confusing new feelings toward this woman. At the same time, Chris begins to question if Willow is what has been missing from her life.

Not only is this story well told, it has a myriad of different levels and dimensions. There is no doubt this one will be a permanent addition to my personal collection. Do yourself a favor and give it a shot.

After reading Lessons I looked forwarding to more works from this author. I was not disappointed with this book. Very good character development and the story was excellent. The author did a fantastic job in developing the story. I could not put it down.

A desperate woman believes she would be better off dead. In an attempt to commit suicide she jumps off a bridge only to be saved by a woman (dressed in a clowns costume) who happens to be a nurse. The bond of friendship grows stronger everyday. Their need for one another gets so intense each has to question what they will do next.

There lives will never be the same.....

Thanks Kim, excellent book!
