What was the catalyst for the Destiny Series?
The Destiny Series is a trilogy: Meeting Destiny, Destiny’s Revenge and
Destiny’s Wrath. The idea came to me
when some friends and I were talking about how some people are just meant to be
together. Maybe they kept running into
the same person at different times in their lives, each time it wasn’t the
right time for them to be together.
Fate
continued to bring them together until it was the right time. Another couple I knew seemed to be a matched
set, their personalities were opposite but when they were together you couldn’t
help but have a twinge of jealousy that –wow, they really were made for each
other.
The Destiny Series takes that idea a little bit
further. Not only are two people meant
to be together in this lifetime; they’ve shared multiple lifetimes, each time
coming a step or two closer to perfecting their souls. The Destiny Series’ journey comes off as a
contemporary romance initially, where you almost have to turn your head and
squint to see the paranormal aspects in Meeting Destiny. One of the supernatural characters makes a
mistake and a demon with an obsession is unleashed.
Why did I write it this way?
I read Paranormal Romance, Paranormal Thrillers, Urban Fantasy all the
time. Watching characters thrown into
impossible situations and accepting them can be hard on the reader. When I began the series, I wanted characters
that everyone could relate to; going about their lives with all the
insecurities and challenges we’re all faced with in our daily lives. It isn’t until midway through Meeting Destiny
that the paranormal aspects reveal themselves, and even then it isn’t a shocking reveal – more like a: “Geeze, I
could totally see that happening.”
The Destiny Series has so many things woven in that it’s
hard to put it in a single genre. There
is murder, mystery, heartbreak, love, and a new take on an old idea of past
lives and soul mates. I’d love for you
to give the series a try. As a means to
test drive the series and see if it’s something you’d enjoy, the first book in
the series is free from all major book stores as an e-book. I hope you love it!
