Book excerpt: Olivia is a young girl from a working-class family background; she comes from a small countryside village, nestled away along with other villages, in the Hope Valley area of Derbyshire, in England. The story follows the events through her life over two decades. Beginning in 1967 as she is brought by an ambulance to a hospital, in Manchester, England, when she is losing an aborted baby, and she endures an inhumane and horrific experience at the hands of a sadistic doctor. Olivia's life then begins to moves forward when she joins a happy 'Hippy-Movement' crowd, before entering into a controversial marriage to a man many years her senior. Then a short time later she experiences with her husband, a very traumatic car accident, where at the hospital the attending doctor's prognosis, predicting that her life will soon be coming to an end!! But her body, soul, and willpower insist on fighting for her survival. A few years later she enters into a second doomed marriage. And in the following years that pass, Olivia's life seems to turn into a big 'ROLLER-COASTER-RIDE!' Now always filled with sex, drugs and rock & roll, as she clings to this wild, and crazy, hedonistic-lifestyle for her own emotional security. Until many years later, when taking an overall, view and stock of her life, which now seems to becoming so totally, out of her control, she finally decides that it's time for her to jump off, all of these fast-fun-filled-rides, which are taking her to nowhere. So after much soul-searching about what she does now really want in her life, she decides that it is time for a reconciliation with her second husband Alex. They decide to go to start a fresh new life, when they go to live together in North America, leaving all of her past behind her in England. So now finally at last Olivia, begins to enjoy the much-needed love of her husband and family, which deep down she had been craving for most of her life. Suddenly from somewhere one night out of the blue in the year of 1987, a deep, dark, hidden force in her life returns, turning twenty-long-lost-hidden-years, into a "FULL-CIRCLE!" Motivating her now to visit the world-down-under in Australia, forcing her to now confront and deal, with her dark, secret, hidden past, which tragically ends, with sad, dramatic consequences! "WHO IS OLIVIA?" The writer has portrayed in this woman's fiction novel a person that is as far removed from anything in Hollywood as possible! She's just an ordinary girl, who could be living next door to you, or anyone-else in the North of England. The life of Olivia has been portrayed and written in colourful, vivid, imaginary, and detailed true to life form so that the readers can visualise Olivia, as a real true to life person, that they could possibly identify with in part. While at times understanding and feeling that some of the things that happened in her life, could also have possibly happened in their own. But no matter what trauma, hardship, heartache or crisis arrives in Olivia's life, she not only challenges it, grows from it and flourishes, she is also very determined to survive it all, whatever life throws her way. And the readers will soon realize, that no matter how tough Olivia's going gets, she will never give up, even when she feels that her world is crashing as it begins to crumble down all around her, she will keep on striving until she perseveres. Yes Olivia is a true survivor and will always manage to keep on swimming, until she reaches and gets herself across to the other side of the shore! So come on you ladies--- And make yourselves very comfortable for this controversially, absorbing story, about the reality of a woman who could be you, or one of your friends!!!! As Olivia dares u-all to take this positively exciting and emotionally charged 'ROLLER-COASTER-RIDE' with her, hoping you can hang on until the end, as you deal with what her life has in store as it turns into a 'FULL-CIRCLE!'

Book excerpt: Proper Regency ladies are not supposed to become magicians—but Miss Abigail Wilder is far from proper. The marriageable young ladies of London are dying mysteriously, and Abigail Wilder intends to discover why. Abigail’s father, the Lord Sorcier of England, believes that a dark lord of faerie is involved. But while Abigail is willing to match her magic against Lord Longshadow, neither her father nor high society believes that she is capable of doing so. Thankfully, Abigail is not the only one investigating the terrible events. Mercy, a street rat and self-taught magician, insists on joining Abigail in unraveling the mystery. Mercy is unpredictable, and her magic is strange and foreboding—but the greatest danger she poses may well be to Abigail’s heart. A queer romantic faerie tale of defiant hope and love against all odds, set in Olivia Atwater’s enchanting version of Regency England.

Book excerpt: “Whimsical, witty, and brimming over with charm” (India Holton), Olivia Atwater’s delightful debut will transport you to a magical version of Regency England, where the only thing more meddlesome than a fairy is a marriage-minded mother! It’s difficult to find a husband in Regency England when you’re a young lady with only half a soul. Ever since she was cursed by a faerie, Theodora Ettings has had no sense of fear or embarrassment—an unfortunate condition that leaves her prone to accidental scandal. Dora hopes to be a quiet, sensible wallflower during the London Season—but when Elias Wilder, the strange, handsome, and utterly ill-mannered Lord Sorcier, discovers her condition, she is instead drawn into peculiar and dangerous faerie affairs. If her reputation can survive both her curse and her sudden connection with the least-liked man in all high society, then she and her family may yet reclaim their normal place in the world. But the longer Dora spends with Elias, the more she begins to suspect that one may indeed fall in love even with only half a soul.
