Book Blast & Giveaway: Two Worlds Two Men by Joy Frawley


Two Worlds,Two Men
by Joy Frawley

BLURB:

Jocelyn and Neely are having a perfectly pleasant dinner at the Sheep Heid Inn when it happens: Jocelyn suddenly finds herself sitting across the table, not from Neely, but a strange man dressed in medieval garb. This man is no apparition. His eyes, the deepest brown, clearly look on her in intimacy; his touch causes her pulse to rise.  Jocelyn realizes two things: from his clothes, he is clearly an aristocrat, and that she, Jocelyn Stewart, seems to be in some sort of romantic relationship with him! Minutes later Jocelyn returns to Neely, in the present day, weak and terrified. Together they begin to unravel the forgotten past and find themselves facing the reality of medieval Scotland. A strange world steeped in folklore and superstition; where life begins and often ends with the sword. As Jocelyn travels back to medieval times she learns that the man she keeps seeing is no other than Sir Colin Campbell of the powerful Campbell Clan. When Jocelyn is with Colin, she wants never to leave his side; then she returns to the present and cannot imagine herself with anyone but Neely. Jocelyn struggles with a choice. Which man will gain her heart when both offer such different love? She is in love with two different men in two different worlds.

EXCERPT:

Jocelyn looked around for the driver who was supposed to be waiting for her arrival with a sign. She had hired someone to pick her up because, as an American and first-time visitor to Scotland, she had figured it would be less stressful.

She didn’t see the driver anywhere; then, just as she started feeling nervous, she saw a man holding a sign with her name on it. And what a man he was! He was broad shouldered, strong and had dark brown hair with reddish tints. He exuded masculinity like some cologne, and even across the airport, she thought she could smell it. Smoothing her unruly hair, she started to walk over to him.

The man, seeing her approach him, took a step toward her. “Are you, Jocelyn?”

When he spoke her name, she found herself frozen in place unable to respond. She’d heard this voice before; she knew this voice. This man spoke her name exactly like the dream she had had all those years ago! She had been stirred awake in bed by a voice of a man, who spoke her name with a Scottish accent. His voice was gentle and low; as if he wanted to gain her attention, but not cause her alarm. Jocelyn had clutched the sheets to her chest and stared out into the darkness of her bedroom almost feeling his intimate presence beside her. She lifted her hand up to her ear having sworn his warm breath had brushed her skin. Jocelyn remembered she had turned her head, anxiously, toward the pillow next to her and almost thought she would be looking into the eyes of a stranger; yet she had not been frightened. This man, his voice, somehow comforted her.

Now, she stood in the airport and caught her breath as she faced the man before her. Her eyes searched his face for something; though what it was she wasn’t sure. Jocelyn felt her heart beating so fast she was certain the man could hear it as memories flooded her mind of that night so long ago when he or someone spoke her name in the darkness. Was that the reason for her vacation to Scotland? Was she unconsciously trying to find the man?

AUTHOR Bio and Links:



Joy Frawley is an author and writer of the upcoming romance novella; Two Worlds, Two Men due to release on October 2014 by Resplendence Publishing. Joy lives in beautiful Traverse City, Michigan relishing in living the life of the classic “townie” with her two dogs Piggs and Diggs.




A small interview with the author......


Where do you write from?
I write from the United States in the Traverse City, Michigan area. We are located by Lake Michigan and have astounding natural beauty all around us. Our beaches, clear aquamarine colored water, and quaint little beach towns are sheer bliss. Our Upper Peninsula has massive cliffs and endless wilderness for the adventurous at heart to explore. I grew up here and no matter where I’ve traveled I still marvel at how beautiful this part of northern Michigan is.

How long have you been writing and when did you start?
I started writing about 3 years ago when I was at a cross roads in my life. I was desperately seeking a creative outlet and writing just naturally opened up for me.

Do you have any special routine you follow when you write?
No, not particularly. I pretty much just go with the flow and work wherever I am at. I am not picky where I write or even the time of day. I go with the inspiration.

What’s your favorite thing about being an author?
My favorite thing about being an author is the ability to inspire others to pursue their own dream of writing or whatever dream they cherish.

Who are your favorite authors?
I am a fan of Dr. Wayne Dyer, Frances Mayes, Marianne Williamson and Patricia Cornwell. I enjoy both fiction and nonfiction so I read diverse genres.

What do you like to do when you’re not writing?
I enjoy the outdoors so going to the beach, hiking, and biking are things I frequently do. I also love cooking and baking at home for my family as well as travel. I have a couple dogs, Piggs and Diggs, that like to take me walking too. Piggs is a chubby little Puggle pup and Diggs is the longest Corgi you have ever seen! He looks like a choo-choo train. They are my little babies and spoiled rotten.

What are you working on now?
I’m currently finishing up a nonfiction book about pursuing your dreams. I am excited about its ability to inspire others and look forward to getting it completed.

  2. Enjoyed reading your interview today. Pure Michigan....I'm a native Michigander too and no matter how far we travel, our heart remains in Michigan, doesn't it? After living in NC for 14 years, I decided it was time to come back home. I'm in SE MI but my father was born & raised in Iron Mountain in the UP.
