From the Author
Velvet was written as part fiction, part real life experience of a woman who is finding her way in a new town after a nasty divorce. Within the pages of this book are woven strands of magic, loss, romance, and drama.
This book follows Velvet for 13 days of her life, 13 days of magic and wonder. It is based in Georgia's first city, Savannah, one of the most beautiful cities in the United States. Savannah takes its place among the many colorful characters within the book. It is my hope that you will choose to visit Savannah after reading Velvet.
Thank you for your interest in the story of Velvet Riverstone and Nigel Blackmore. I hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it.

From the Back Cover
Velvet Riverstone is forty-something and lonely. She is creating a post-divorce life in the coastal city of Savannah, Georgia. On her own for the first time ever, she works with long-time friends Jane and Electra at their occult bookstore on River Street.
Her friends decide that Velvet needs a mate, so they give her a tattered spell book and ask her to consider making magic. Skeptical at first, Velvet decides to cast a spell for love. On Halloween, as the clock strikes midnight, she performs the spell.
Shortly thereafter, she finds her world turned upside down when she meets Nigel Blackmore, an older and enchanting stranger from London, England.
But as Velvet and Nigel revel in the bliss of new love, Velvet's abusive ex-husband Mark arrives from Atlanta. Intent upon wooing her back into his life, he pursues her with a vengeance.
In a desperate attempt to prove her bravery and to protect the new man in her life, Velvet confronts Mark one last time on the bank of the Savannah River.
In the end, love wins.
