After his brothers recent disappearance
Wesley Rochester wished he could just fade into obscurity. Searching for
closure, he's haunted by visons. Consumed with decoding the messages, he begins
turning dangerously deeper inward. Enter an intriguing, 'not quite' human
stranger, who mysteriously arrives just as he feels all hope is lost. Together
they begin to realize that their destinies are intricately tangled in a drama
reaching far beyond the realms of the wold they know. Discovering the secrets
plaguing Wesley since childhood are no coincidence, and everything he believes
is shattered.
Captivated by her, he must decide between the life he has and the
one he'd forgotten.
'Finding Summerland' is like
'Twilight' in the sense that it is a supernatural, coming of age romance—but
has a genre bending, metaphysical element and a much deeper rabbit hole. Follow
the journey of two star crossed souls as they explore who they are and the ties
that bind them. Enter a world intentionally forgotten. A place buried by
history, where only the chosen are aware of its existence. A place covenants
are made and broken, where myth leads to truth and forbidden love threatens to
destroy or be destroyed, becoming just another casualty in their shadow war.
The introductory novel in a series of five, called 'The Ameryn Chronicles'—but
compelling enough to stand alone—'Finding Summerland' is sure to be savored by
anyone craving to stretch the bounds of ordinary imagination, edgy enough to
engage readers who enjoy unraveling a mystery, and sweet enough to grab onto
the hearts of the romance lovers! Where legends breathe and dreams are alive. A
'trippy' journey to a new reality.
Wesley Rochester:
Born into privilege, Wesley Rochester is
misunderstood and never quite fit in. He struggles with what is expected of
him, from his high society family, while secretly seeking out the truth of what
makes him different. Under constant public scrutiny, Wesley tries
playing the role he was intended to play. A misfit in school, both socially and
academically, he is overshadowed by his popular, older brother Channing. He
spends most of his time alone with
his guitar, or hanging out with his
outgoing, playboy, buddy Wyatt. When Channing disappears mysteriously,
attention is thrust upon Wesley that he isn't prepared for. He's all but given
up, when a strange girl, named Olivia, enters his life. Falling for her almost
instantly, Wesley's never cared for anyone like he cares for Olivia. Together
they embark on a journey of self discovery that neither planned, or could have
ever imagined.
Channing Rochester:
High school football star, popular,
handsome, and rich, it seemed Channing Rochester had it all. Girls fantasized
about being with him, and every guy wanted to be him, or at least in his
circle. The oldest of the Rochester children, he is poised to walk in his
father's footsteps. Close to his brother Wesley, who is only a grade behind
him, he does his best to help Wes 'fit in'
and has always been loyal to him. A media darling and savvy speaker, Channing
has no trouble assimilating in the affluent company his family keeps.
Considered highly eligible, everyone wants a piece of him and Channing loves
the attention. Then, on his graduation trip, everything changes. Channing
mysteriously vanishes, immortalizing him, as questions and rumors swirl in the
high brow 'River Grove'.
