Breaking Through the Pale – New Revised Edition

December 29, 2021

The first book I ever wrote was a collection of paranormal/esoteric stories called Breaking Through the Pale. Recently, I returned to that collection and decided to give it an overhaul. The new revised edition of this book has recently been released at Cornerstone Book Publishers and Amazon. I hope you check it out!

Breaking Through the Pale

Journey with metaphysical author Evelyn Klebert into a collection of short stories that travel beyond the pale into the unpredictable realm of the paranormal.

In “A Grey Mourning,” a disillusioned man encounters a mysterious being on the foggy streets of New Orleans. “Contact” is a tale of automatic writing, when a young artist establishes communication with a spirit guide, and the victim of a car crash unravels the true nature of her existence in “Dancing on the Threshold.” The final tale is called “Isolation,” in which a confused and disoriented woman finds herself in an old, quaint house where she must piece together the mystical implications surrounding her predicament.

The Lady in the Blue Dress

November 19, 2021

Recently, I decided to take a chance and dive into something completely different. If you haven’t already heard about it, Amazon has launched a new way to publish books called Kindle Vella. Instead of a complete manuscript, books are published by continuous episodes reminiscent of the old days when Charles Dickens and other Victorian writers like Wilkie Collins, George Eliot, Elizabeth Gaskell, Thomas Hardy, George Meredith, and Robert Louis Stevenson would publish in literary magazines in a serialized format. At Kindle Vella, the first three episodes of the novel are free and subsequent episodes are unlocked with tokens which are purchased.

The Lady in the Blue Dress is my first foray into this new publishing venue. It’s a book I actually began a good while back but have returned to often over the years, combining fantasy, paranormal, and my love of Pre-Raphaelite paintings. I hope you’ll drop by Kindle Vella and read my first three episodes for free and then decide if you’d like to take this adventure with me. From what I gather, you get you’re first 200 tokens free when you join.

Mika Devalieur desperately wants to refuse her grandmother’s last wish, but she can’t. Reluctantly, she travels from New Orleans to rural Virginia to deliver a precious Pre-Raphaelite painting into the hands of James Clairmont, someone she’s never laid eyes on before. But something isn’t right, and James Clairmont knows much more about her family and the painting than he is letting on.

Just in time for Halloween, the new edition of The Broken Vow is now available at Cornerstone Book Publishers, Amazon and most other online book and eBook retailers. I hope you’ll check out this pivotal episode in the adventures of my favorite lycanthrope Ethan Garraint.

The Broken Vow

In the heart of every man, there is a history. In the heart of every monster, there is a story. In The Broken Vow, (the first installment of The Clandestine Exploits of a Werewolf), Ethan Garraint is on a vendetta that begins in the heart of the Pyrenees with the fall of Montségur and leads him to the streets of New Orleans nearly five hundred years later. But the person he chases isn’t really a man anymore, and Ethan has been a werewolf for almost a millennium. With the aid of a gifted seer, he is on a blood hunt that will culminate in a journey that crosses the line between heaven and earth and ends somewhere in between.

The Tethering: A Portent of Crows – Just Released!!

July 10, 2021

My new paranormal romance, The Tethering: A Portent of Crows, has just been released at Cornerstone Book Publishers, Amazon, and most other on-line print and eBook platforms.

Deborah Brandt’s beloved Aunt Gena always told her that she was special, a bit different, and would have to live her life unlike other people. Of course, this she disregarded as the ramblings of her lovely but notably eccentric aunt. Although there were the things that Aunt Gena said that seemed true — like Deborah being sensitive to energy shifts, having potentially psychic impressions, and dreaming of a spirit guide — none of it could be real. But the most ridiculous thing that her Aunt Gena told her before she died is that there is someone special out there for her. She said that he is an extraordinary man who is not only her perfect match but someone who she would learn from so that they could help the world in difficult times. How ridiculous! It sounds like a fairy tale, and no such person exists.

Daniel Wren is unique. He has been raised and trained from a young age to hone his psychic gifts. He lives in a world unimagined by most. And he has been waiting for years to contact his counterpart, soulmate if you will. But the problem is that she is painfully unaware of the type of life that he lives and the life she would be entering into if they came together.

His dilemma becomes how best to proceed. How can he win her over and move forward before outside forces take that decision away from him?

Treading on Borrowed Time New Edition

December 15, 2019

Join the quest across time itself this holiday season. The newly revised edition of Treading on Borrowed Time has just been released.

For Julia Moreau, life seems complicated. Rather isolated after emerging from a failed marriage and managing a lifetime of insulin-dependent diabetes, she lives alone in her childhood home. Of course, being an extraordinary psychic sensitive, she does communicate with the spirit of her long-deceased Great Aunt Lilia. But Julia really doesn’t have a clue what complicated is until she is abruptly thrust into being the key chess piece in a power struggle between two powerful men of extraordinary abilities

An Englishman, Christian Monamet, considers himself a collector of sorts. His latest potential acquisition has driven him overseas. It is a mythical creature whose power, he believes, is his family legacy.

His rival, Dr. Nicholas Burke, has a disturbingly similar goal. Determined to use all weapons at his disposable, he seeks to obtain mastery and control over the very same fantastical entity so deeply shrouded in mystery.

What they both have in common is the discovery that somehow Julia Moreau is their only lead. Will Julia lose her soul to the karma of a devastating past life or her heart to the love of a man driven by dark forces? Travel across their battleground, the enigmatic city of New Orleans past and present, as all three race against fate before time itself runs out.

Newly Revised The House at Pritchard Place

August 2, 2019

Not much happens in the quiet little neighborhood right near the RiverBend area in New Orleans. But all that is about to change. Jump in as a powerful psychic begins to ignite a mystery whose shock waves reverberate across time and reality itself. The newly revised edition of The House at Pritchard Place is now available at Amazon and Cornerstone Book Publishers.

Nothing is really wrong with the old Warrick House on Dante St. except that there most certainly is. Nothing is exactly wrong with its new mysterious owner except that Elise is sure that something doesn’t add up. It isn’t obvious, but sometimes the most dangerous things aren’t.

In the third installment of The New Orleans Paranormal Mystery series, with the help of her very psychic sister and her children, the Breslin clan, Elise Ashford is about to embark on a wild rescue mission straight into another dimension that will land her squarely somewhere she doesn’t expect, right back into her past. She’ll land full circle; in a childhood home whose memory still haunts her to this day — The House at Pritchard Place.
