A Quiet Moment – Audiobook Released!

A Quiet Moment has just been released as an audiobook on Audible. It’s been quite a journey to bring this book into the audio format. I remember so long ago when I first began writing the novel, I didn’t really have a plan. I just wrote a paragraph about a man coming out of a wintry storm into a bookstore. That paragraph sat on my computer for about a year until one day I was looking for inspiration to write, and I found it again. It wasn’t unusual for me to start something or just have pieces of it and pick it up at a later date.

Well, the second time around this story took fire and after a while took shape as well. It’s a love story that’s very special to me, and I am so happy to be able to share it now in audiobook form. I do hope you check it out.

Jacob Wyss is caught in a rut, in fact on the verge of being engulfed by it. After an excruciating and disillusioning divorce, his life as an artist in a sleepy college town at the foot of the Appalachian mountains has become quiet, routine, and maddening in its predictability. One wintry day, his deep restlessness drives him out in precarious conditions to a largely empty bookstore nearly devoid of another living soul, nearly.

Aimee Marston isn’t like everyone else. On the surface, she lives a sedate life working as a feature writer for a small local newspaper in addition to several other editorial jobs to help make ends meet. But just beneath, her existence is largely not her own. She is a sensitive, an empathic psychic, guided by her calling to use her gifts to help others. Unfortunately, as a result, her secretiveness has made her defensive and protective of herself, preventing her from having much of a life of her own.

A psychic call for help sends Aimee out on a freezing January morning, where her destiny and Jacob’s collide, sending both their lives spiraling onto an unexpected and often disturbing track. Two lonely souls connect, not by accident but by design. Theirs is the intersection of two spiritual paths, two lovers who must struggle to overcome the phantoms of a past life as well as the challenges of their inner demons to carve out an extraordinary future together.

A Quiet Moment Audiobook

Well, I’m excited to report that the A Quiet Moment audiobook is now in the hands of Audible and should be released later this month. This has been an intense and somewhat challenging project for me and strangely bittersweet at its conclusion. It was quite an experience revisiting these characters and bringing them to life again in the audio format. While all the books I’ve written are special to me in different ways, this is unquestionably one of my favorites.

I hope you take some time to check it out in either book, eBook, or soon to be Audio format. I am linking a new YouTube video that I created down below. All the best.

Finding Inspiration

I once read that Agatha Christie would leave notebooks all around her house in case a flash of inspiration came to her that she needed to write down. I keep a number of what are called “fat little notebooks” about and actually never leave without one in my purse in case I need to scribble something down. Sometimes, the name of a town, a street, or maybe a store we’re passing strikes me as unique.


I also take a lot of pictures, in fact, all the time. I suppose it might be irritating to some, perhaps, but I feel driven. A number of these, I’ve used in book trailers that I’ve been posting on my YouTube channel.


While I was in New Orleans, I was constantly taking pictures of houses, apartments, schools, and all kinds of places so I could pinpoint exactly where my characters lived their lives, where they walked and interacted. I also, particularly for Sanctuary of Echoes, had to figure out how the streetcar lines connected. In my mind, it was important for the teenagers in that book to be able to get from place to place.


Inspiration comes in all sorts of curious disguises. Right now, in the community I’m in, it’s apparent a great many people are anxious and upset about what is happening in the country. That changes the feel and complexion of a place, no matter how picturesque it might seem. And that is, in an overarching sense, seeds for writing.


It’s hard to say where inspiration might come from. It can be very small, like a streetlight on a foggy night, or very large, like the COVID epidemic and all its reverberations in people’s lives. It’s always there. You just have to keep your eyes open and be ready to see it.

Magic – An Excerpt from the Sanctuary of Echoes Audiobook

Below is an excerpt from my recent audiobook, Sanctuary of Echoes. This was posted on Cornerstone Book Publisher’s YouTube channel. I hope you enjoy.

Sanctuary of Echoes

Ghosts unacknowledged do not sleep.

Corey Knight has resigned herself to a quiet, reclusive life spent living out the rest of her days in her childhood home on the fringes of New Orleans’ French Quarter. But the unexpected specter of her deceased father plunges her into a mad quest for a missing supernatural weapon unearthed long ago. And unfortunately, her only ally is a lost love she once betrayed.

Iain Shaw returns to New Orleans, a city he abandoned a decade before while fleeing a devastating past. Here, he is forced to confront it again in the visage of the woman he once adored – one that he is now determined to get back at any cost.

Follow them both in a wild paranormal tale of discovery and redemption as they confront and unearth the echoes of a buried and unyielding truth that once tore them irreparably apart.

A Journey to Healing

I’ve been spending a lot of time recently working on the audiobook for A Quiet Moment. A Quiet Moment is part of The Mystic’s Collection, a box set of three paranormal novels I wrote in succession.


While Sanctuary of Echoes and Treading on Borrowed Time are books that turn on what I’d consider highly dramatic plot points, A Quiet Moment is a bit of a different beast. I would categorize it more as a book that leans heavily in the direction of a contemporary romance but with extraordinary complications. That doesn’t mean it isn’t dramatic. Sometimes the most dramatic moments of someone’s life happen on a smaller more personal scale not on a grand stage, but on a smaller one, an intimate and personally significant one. That’s the stuff and meat of life.

Revisiting and spending time with this book reminds me how vast the stage of life is and how little we really know about each other and our personal struggles. These characters while dealing with extraordinary psychic gifts are also battling to overcome their own fear, their own past traumas, and learning to help each other and trust again.


I can say honestly, it’s one of the books I’m proudest of because it could really be anybody. We are all extraordinary in ways most never see or acknowledge. And we all struggle and hopefully try to become better people through that struggle. That’s makes us human and capable of greatness on whatever scale, even a very personal one.

New Orleans Paranormal Mystery Collection

New Orleans is a compelling, intriguing city filled with mystery — seen and unseen. Join the psychic Breslin family as they explore and battle elements of the supernatural within this mystical city in the boxed set of the first three novels of the New Orleans Paranormal Mystery series.


Gravier’s Bookshop: Caroline Breslin is determined to strike out on her own, and all is going well, except that she is under a devastating supernatural attack. The last thing Caroline wants is to run back to her family for help. What she really needs is a knight in shining armor or maybe just that guy that keeps haunting her dreams.
Max Gravier had no intention of becoming a recluse, but after his wife’s death, it seems his life is heading in that direction. That is until he answers a call, a cry for help that draws him into a fierce battle for a young woman’s soul.


The Hotel Mandolin: It’s opulent, classic, and one of the most renowned hotels nestled deep in New Orleans’ famous business district, but something is amiss at The Hotel Mandolin. PI Peter Norfleet is calling out the big guns to help him investigate a recent suicide at the famous establishment — his good friend Max Gravier, a formidable psychic, and his girlfriend, Caroline Breslin, a talented empath. But none of them can seem to scratch the surface of this puzzle, no one except Cassie Breslin, Caroline’s clairvoyant mother, who has somehow tapped into an unexpected connection with a tragic ghost from the turn of the century. And the more she uncovers, the more dangerous and malevolent the mystery becomes.


The House at Pritchard Place: 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 something doesn’t add up. It isn’t obvious, but sometimes the most dangerous things aren’t. 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.


The Journey of the Adept

For the adept, the world is a different, more challenging place, and the unseen, the supernatural, is laid bare. Follow three fascinating heroines on their transformative journeys in this collection of paranormal novels by Evelyn Klebert.

The Lady in the Blue Dress
When she was a child, Mika Devalieur was introduced to her grandmother’s most precious possession — a priceless and mysterious painting that she simply called The Lady in the Blue Dress. Upon Adele St. Clair’s death, the painting is left in the care of her granddaughter with only one stipulation. Mika must hand over the family heirloom to a total stranger. Mika Devalieur desperately wants to deny her beloved grandmother’s last request, but she can’t. Torn between her Gran’s last wishes and her desire to hold onto the Lady, she ultimately journeys to rural Virginia, where an enigmatic man shows her that this painting is only the beginning.


What quickly becomes clear is that James Clairmont knows much more about her and the Lady than he is letting on. He begins to slowly unravel a powerful supernatural connection that spans three generations of her family. Mika finds herself desperate to uncover the entire truth before she falls in love with a man filled with so many secrets — secrets about him, about her, and most especially about The Lady in the Blue Dress.

Dumaine Street
A New Orleans paranormal and psychic romance.

Voices in her head, catastrophic emotions, hallucinations — Rebecca Wells is more than convinced that she is losing her mind. And as a last-ditch effort, she contacts a self-professed counselor who seems convinced he can help.

Gabriel Sutton has abandoned the world of medicine to navigate a realm filled with psychic phenomena. Diagnosing Becca with extreme empathic abilities, he struggles to help her stabilize her gifts while trying desperately not to fall in love with his patient.

From the realm of vulnerability into a crusade to use their profound gifts to rescue others from peril on the other side of death, these two follow an astonishing and unpredictable path into each other’s hearts.

The Tethering: A Portent of Crows
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 was that someone special was out there for her. She said that he was an extraordinary man who was 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? Now on sale for $4.99!!
