Happy new year! I hope 2009 brings good things to everyone. I’m crossing my fingers that my book is a success this year. Author House finished my press release yesterday. They will be distributing it to many different media outlets, newspapers, and magazines within 1-2 weeks. I’m so relieved. I really hope I receive some reviews.
A Rose to the Fallen
New Romance Novel Shares Love Story of a Fallen Angel Full of Passion and Real Magic
SCOTCH PLAINS, N.J. – Bridget Monahan is an elementary school teacher in her mid-20s and has what every other woman wants: beauty, intelligence, compassion, and a fiery sense of independence to go along with her shock of red hair. But she’s still single, and while some might call her unlucky in love, Bridget prefers to think of herself as a realist. All of that will change in April Bostic’s new romance novel, A Rose to the Fallen: True love and eternity are bound (published by AuthorHouse).
Bridget has always been a skeptic when it comes to falling in love. When Bridget’s friend Autumn claims to have found a soul mate for her, Bridget can’t help but laugh out loud. Autumn didn’t have the best track record for setting Bridget up with guys – in fact, the list read more like a lineup for “America’s Least Wanted,” at least by Bridget’s standards. But something compelled her to take one more chance, give into curiosity and agree to meet Tristan Hathaway.
Tristan doesn’t disappoint. Initially attracted to his good looks and British accent, Bridget is won over by his charm and genuine kindness. At their first meeting, Tristan confesses that he has a desire to fall in love one day and as their relationship blossoms, so too does their intense passion for one another. Tristan has the ability to seduce Bridget unlike any man she’s ever been with, and they both admit to their sexual addiction to one another.
Tristan reminds Bridget of a fallen angel and in her heart she knows that is his true self. But unlike a conventional angel, he curses like a sailor, has a criminal record, sports tattoos, and could never turn down a fight. But for all of Tristan’s bad-boy tendencies, Bridget believes that he is her soul mate. There’s no denying their earnest love, but no relationship is perfect. Along with Tristan’s looks, devotion and tenderness comes jealousy and dangerous obsession. Within their relationship, Tristan develops an unexplainable emotional and mental connection to Bridget that scares her and threatens to tear them apart.
Bridget teaches for a living, but in A Rose to the Fallen: True love and eternity are bound she unknowingly becomes the student in her relationship. Tristan teaches her how it feels to love unconditionally and the true meaning of a soul mate. Bridget will learn that listening to her heart may be the most important lesson of all.
April Bostic was born and raised in New Jersey. She currently works as a security administrator in the field of information technology. A Rose to the Fallen: True love and eternity are bound is her first book. For more information, please visit www.aprilbostic.com.
