SEPTEMBER ENDS
By
Hunter S. Jones & an Anonymous English Poet
Overweight and dull. That’s how I felt.
My grandfather and brother died. I hid inside a black cave
deep in my soul, numbed for a decade on meds, booze, and bad love, married to
my glorious career.
My name is Liz Snow, from Atlanta, Georgia, and this is my
story.
One hot summer I fell hopelessly in love with successful attorney,
Peter William Hendrix III, from Chattanooga, Tennessee. We bonded because of Shelley
and Keats. Pete introduced me to the works of modern English poet, Jack O.
Savage, It was like The Poet was drawing us together through his blogs and
poems, like he had a message for my life and my love with Pete Hendrix.
I lived it in my heart and soul.
It all went tragically wrong once I learned Pete’s secret.
As September ends I jet to London, England with an unstable
mind and a broken heart. Pete Hendrix betrayed me big time. There was no time
for revenge. My life was a kaleidoscope of stabbing shards of pain.
London ignored me. Maybe I didn't exist. I was lost and
lonely in a flat in Kensington.
I hear that Jack O. Savage will make a rare public
appearance. I wrangle an invitation to the art gallery where he is reading. I
was curious. Somehow, he was the cause of my trouble.
The rock-star-with-words was even more damaged than I.
Jack O.Savage, The Poet became my friend.
Then, an unexpected kiss at a county fair on a perfect
English summer's day changed everything forever. Jack the man became my lover.
Magic.
My elusive dream of a lifelong love began.
If Pete was what I'd always wanted, Jack was what I always
needed.
The mystery unraveled as the kaleidoscope of my broken life evolved and I found myself living a rainbow of perfect bliss.
Sometimes when you believe it’s the end, it’s
only the beginning.
September Ends is a contemporary romance with erotic and
supernatural elements bound together by poetry. It
reveals the intricate web of passion and desire which entangles Liz Snow, Pete
Hendrix and Jack O. Savage. The story is told through Liz Snow’s diary, Jack O.
Savage’s poetry, and from letters sent across the Atlantic. Traveling throughout
the lushness of a summertime in Tennessee and Georgia, September Ends journeys
into the elegance of London’s West End and is finally settled in the
countryside of Cornwall, England, a decade later.
September Ends is a story of sin, redemption and salvation
through love
because love happens
when we least expect it.
My Review (some spoiling involved):
Was given this book by author for honest review as part of book tour. This book left me with mixed emotions. The transitions between the poetry, chats, and normal text was a little confusing for me to follow at first. I did eventually get the hang of it. At one point I was wondering aloud how can she (Liz) not tell that he (Pete) is stringing her along. {I actually think that's a sign of a good story as I'm getting involved with the characters.} She gets smacked in the face with the truth and in a sense runs away to the place of her dreams. She then meets the love of her life (Jack) and one would hope to live happily ever after. So not the case but since I don't want to spoil all the surprises I'll leave you to read and find out.
