Overview

Their paths never crossed, but their destiny is bound by blood.

Strangers separated by forty years and a bloody war, their only bond is a name engraved on The Wall. He walked in the shadow of fate. She stepped into the shadow of love.

A restless intimacy followed Ryan through the jungles of Vietnam, the fear, loneliness, and death camouflaged by the beauty of a country twelve thousand miles from home. He walked courageously toward his destiny and left his legacy--words written in a bloodstained journal--for the woman he loved and their infant daughter.

Encouraged by an enigmatic old man who sends her a journal identical to her father's, Ryleigh composes her words when a second chance at love is cut short by ghosts from the past. No blood stains her journal, only the souvenirs of a broken heart.

from A Promise of Fireflies ~

'The leather journal was identical to the one her father had filled so many years ago, yet no blood stained the cover. Her words came easily as did her tears, branding her journal as her father had decades ago in the jungles of Vietnam.'

"The only thing harder than being a soldier," Ambrose said, his voice hoarse with emotion, "is loving one."

A companion book of poetry from the journals of Ryleigh and Ryan.

Susan has been chosen twice as the recipient of the New Apple Award for Excellence in Independent Publishing for A Promise of Fireflies and A Thousand Butterfly Wishes. Vicious Circles, a fictional story about the deceptions faced in the midst of spousal abuse, was a finalist in the Writer's Village International Short Story Contest, and Susan's writing earned her a spot as a two-time finalist in the Best of Rim Country Reader's Choice Awards, and her website was singled out as one of The Writer Awards Top Author Websites.

When Susan isn't writing, you'll find her tending her garden with a notorious brown thumb, or escaping into someone else's words.

Yes, her son named his gorgeous Yorkshire Terrier after the main character in A Promise of Fireflies.
Susan and her husband call the mountains of Arizona home where they raised their son. They spend their spare time catering to a high-maintenance princess, their Shih Tzu, Mercedes, and on FaceTime with Ryleigh…and their son! ?
