From the Author
Dear Fellow Booklover,
I owe my love of books to my mother, who started me reading at an early age. I skipped “see Jane run” and went straight to Agatha Christie and Nero Wolfe, the books stacked around our house like Legos.
The best present my mother gave me was when I was eight or nine and had already devoured the entire children’s section of the library. She convinced the librarian to give me an adult library card, which meant I had a whole new universe of stories to traverse. There I discovered Ray Bradbury and Robert Heinlein and Ellery Queen along with characters like Horatio Hornblower, the Stainless Steel Rat, the Saint…The only limitation was how many books I could carry to the car by myself. I remember stretching my arms as long as they would go, balancing a teetering stack of books with my chin pressed down on the top one, inhaling that scent of well-worn paper and binding glue, thinking this was heaven.
A few years later, my mother began working for a local bookstore. First, at the cash registers, but she was quickly promoted until she became their Trade Fiction Buyer. I had no idea what that meant except that suddenly I was able to get books by my favorite authors BEFORE they came out! My friends, fellow bibliophiles, were so jealous! But I shared the wealth, sneaking them the ARCs my mom gave me. The bookstore became our favorite place to hang out after school and my mom would call us in when sales reps visited, letting us look at their catalogues and asking us our opinions. I’ll never forget the feeling of pride I felt when books I told her would be hits did indeed breakout and make it to that coveted display window at the front of the store!
Through her store, my friends and I got to meet visiting authors, including the wonderful and amazing Isaac Asimov. We only spoke for a few minutes, but he made such an impression on me―not because he was a genius or talented or a rock star of the SF world, but rather because he was so very normal. Even the fact that he had taken the train from New York because he hated to fly made him seem human.
That’s when I realized anyone could write a book, if they were willing to put in the work. I’d been writing all my life, it’s my way of understanding the chaos that surrounds us in this world, but at that moment I realized I could take my little stories and really do something bigger, create an entire world with people I brought to life…and I wrote my first novel. It was terrible, as most first novels are. I was fifteen at the time, still had not made the leap of logic from writing a book to actually publishing it for others to read, much less getting paid or making a career from writing. But it was a wondrous achievement and started me on the path I’m on today.
All thanks to my mom, who was a bookseller for over two decades before she finally retired, and her love of books.
I’m very grateful that you have chosen one of my books to read and appreciate your time and attention―both in short supply these days! I look forward to hearing any thoughts you have on it.
Thanks for reading,
CJ

As other reviewers have mentioned, the heroine, Angela Rossi, is an ER doctor who finds herself balancing her own medical concerns with those of her patients. Through a mysterious connection with a dying patient, she finds herself searching for a missing girl and finding more missing children in the process. Her involvement with that police case and her entanglement with the police detective provide much suspense and romance however the underlying medical condition she is facing brings even more to the story.This is a beautiful blend of taut suspense and drama as readers eagerly turn pages hoping to see Angela overcome her obstacles. There are multiple twists and turns and even the secondary characters are extremely well developed. They seem to come to life off of the pages and readers become immersed in the world in which they live. There are multiple narrators however the story is so well written and the characters so well developed that I never felt confused or wondered who was telling the story. The multiple viewpoints allow readers to truly feel part of the story.I have read all of CJ's books and can say without a doubt this one will score a home run!

Riveting, Heartbreaking, and Redemptive By D A Bale Dr. Angela Rossi is an ER doctor and leads Good Samaritan’s victim’s advocacy unit with a steadfast commitment to her patients – but she carries a secret that could end her career in a heartbeat.The fugue states, as she calls them, recently started with the death of a nun at nearby St. Timothy’s. In a desperate attempt to save the saintly woman, Dr. Rossi slices through the sternum to access the heart – and suddenly she is frozen in a moment of time as Rossi relives the nun’s final moments and hears a voice swimming through her skull with a dire message: Save the girl!Detective Matthew Ryder has been demoted for standing up for what’s right, which makes him a perfect liaison with the Good Samaritan’s advocacy center. He just didn’t imagine his first meeting with Dr. Rossi would be as her patient. But good thing they’re together when all hell rains down on the neighborhood. The need for each other’s strength is the only chance they have of finding the little girl who holds a key to the terrors surrounding the Tower.The Tower holds secrets. Too many secrets. And no one is talking. Once a high-rise dream of real estate mogul Daniel Kingston, the Tower has devolved into a haven of poor families and single mothers with their children under the watchful control of Tyree’s gang. But Kingston continues to control Tyree’s strings and those of the Tower’s residents while warming his hands in the pockets of city government and it’s infrastructure – all to soon pass on the legacy to his psychopath son. That is, until Dr. Rossi and Detective Ryder’s interference threatens his carefully constructed kingdom. And Devon Price returns to town.Old rivalries and ghosts of the past collide in the catacombs beneath the Tower – and no life is sacred.I stayed up far too late into the morning hours to read Farewell to Dreams. It was riveting, heartbreaking, and redemptive all wrapped in a shroud of impending death. Dr. Rossi was highly relatable in her quest to right wrongs and save lives, while the fugue states and tremors filled her with the fear her career is at an end. Ryder initially had a bit of a chip on his shoulder, but soon I realized it was a refreshing manner where he calls the world as he sees it – regardless of the consequences to himself. Even though he’s seen the worst sides of humanity, Ryder still retains a tenuous faith in man and God. Rossi lost faith in everything years before when her father died – and carries the weight of self-condemnation as well as the condemnation of her family as a result. Through her involvement with Ryder she begins to see a light in the midst of the surrounding darkness.And comes to accept the fact that she cannot escape encroaching death.Writing structure was clean with good point-of-view usage and characters with depth to their past, providing motivation for their present actions. As a reader, I experienced the action and story as it happened, with explosive pacing that propelled the story like an out-of-control freight train at times. Loved that!!! Solid editing left nothing to be questioned.I was glad the budding chemistry between Rossi and Ryder didn’t devolve into sappy, drippy romance. A deeper romantic element would not have fit with the gritty nature of this novel. The hint of their mutual attraction remained realistic and controlled, only coming up for a periodic breath like a long-distance swimmer – and I really, really appreciated that.There were only a couple of characters and situations where I’d have liked just a bit more, namely Father Marcus, the former Tower gang member turned St. Timothy’s priest, and interaction with Dr. Rossi’s extended family. The blame the family laid at her feet didn’t come through and needed more exploration in my mind. Certain aspects of the turf war didn’t feel fully explained either – or maybe it’s just that I don’t have a firm enough grasp of the gang mentality. If this is planned as a series, perhaps these explorations and explanations will come in subsequent releases. I would definitely read more! My fingers are crossed.Farewell to Dreams was a fabulous read. My only cautions would be to be aware of rough language (though it fits the story's nature and isn't gratuitous) and the kidnapping and abuse of children (mainly alluded to). I give this novel four-and-a-half bright and shining stars.I received an ARC of this novel in exchange for a review and was not financially compensated for my honest opinion.
