DISHEARTENED, the Spirit Quest series

Book 2

“I do not know which is worse ― sitting on the edge of a Civil War you know is coming or watching your country implode from within on the verge of another that could happen at any time.” ~ Sidney Timmons-Marshall

Gifted or cursed with the inherited ability of E.V.E., Sidney is forced into the inconceivable ― her 1860 self-watches on the eve of the American Civil War as the Northerners and Southerners dismantle the fabric of the nation. Whereas her 2020 self-witnesses the extreme Progressives and Liberals under the guise of the Democrat umbrella shred away the decency of the American Culture on a world-wide stage and making the USA the laughingstock of the globe.

Sidney is heartbroken watching everything her loved ones and countrymen from her other life fought to preserve be undone by a minute mindless minority of entitled fanatics and a political party so hell-bent on spreading violence and hate, they would rather burn the nation to the ground than relinquish power.

But what can she do? Can one small voice change the mind of millions with hate in their heart? Can she find her way back to the solace she once treasured in both her lives?

Rerelease of Transcendence – as it should have been!

Transcendence, the Spirit Quest series, Book 1 – was originally released in 2019 – and I HATED it. It felt incomplete and rushed. There was so much more to the story that was left out due to the tight deadline I had at that time. But now I was finally able to fix it – rewrite a great deal of it, altering it and adding more than a hundred pages to the story that leads into the second installment in the Spirit Quest series, Disheartened.

I am so excited to finally release the book as it should have been written in the first place. I am very excited and proud of this story/book/series. I offer all my readers my sincerest apologies over the release of Transcendence before it was ready which ultimately only succeeded in delaying Disheartened because it is impossible to move forward when the previous book was incomplete.

I am diligently working on Disheartened, and my goal is to release it in late 2024. It has required a great deal of research from two different centuries, so it is taking a bit of time to compile. Plus, I am in my second to last class in my doctorate program before starting my dissertation. Needless to say, my plate is full, but I am managing. Please hang in there with me. I promise you will not be disappointed!
