Happy New Year everyone. I'm wishing for all of you a wonderful year filled with everything you need and desire in your life. Good health and prosperity, love from everyone in your circle and success in all your set out to accomplish.
Take two teenage girls, Tara and Sophie, who live near each other in the
same area of the city, but inhabit completely different worlds. Add one
mysterious and mesmerizing lost-and-found moonstone ring, that may or may not
possess mystical properties. And one unsuspecting guy named Silas who, just by
chance, happens to be caught up in the converging circumstances of both the
girls.
Various school friends and frenemies orbit Tara
and Sophie’s lives to help complicate matters even more. Added to the mix are
several different sets of moms and dads, and other caregivers whose behavior is
causing unprecedented upheaval in the lives of their children at this precise
moment in time. As the girls continue to cross paths inadvertently, slowly closing
in on one another’s social circles, they each contend with their own seemingly
unique versions of complicated family frustrations. And their changing fortunes
may or may not be related to the moonstone ring. Along the way, each girl is
caught up in a school project which helps each one to perceive her
disheartening circumstances in a completely different light.
Maybe everything that’s happening right now is
a life-altering wakeup-call. Maybe there’s another way, a better way, to react
to changing situations in your life. Maybe everything isn’t as complicated as
it always seems when you pause for just a moment to take a look at the bigger
picture. And maybe every family is more alike than anyone could ever imagine,
and new friendships can begin to bloom in the most peculiar ways.
The combination of family, friends, and strange
coincidences is sure to stir up any number of misunderstandings and mixed
messages—which all adds up to Happenstance.
Editorial Review, Nancy M. Bell
Who knew a moonstone ring could cause such
havoc? Amidst the angst of high school dramas Tara and Sophie, two girls from
vastly different backgrounds, are thrown together by a lost ring. The moonstone
is the catalyst which leads to the revealing of secrets finally seeing the
light of day. Throw in a drop dead gorgeous male lead in the school play who
sets all the girls hearts a flutter who just happens to be Sophie's next door
neighbour...
Happenstance is a wonderful story of
understanding and growth.
David Wesson must
have been absent the day his grade three teacher taught the parable of
“curiosity killed the cat”, because he has inadvertently witnessed an exchange
he should
not have seen. Though he
doesn’t realize it, the barely employed musician and single father is about to
become entangled in a terrifying plot, in which he will unwittingly play a
pivotal role.
Wesson’s
courage, resolve and street smarts will be tested to their limits, as he gets
caught up in an intrigue that takes him to a remote Bahamian island— where
danger lurks along its sandy shores, in its craggy mangrove swamps, out on the
turquoise sea and even under the
blood-warm waters of the Caribbean. He will soon find himself in shark-infested
territory, one of black-market weaponry and stolen military technologies.
Will
David Wesson, a mysterious woman and a cast of misfit operatives fall prey to a
maniacal leader with a diabolical agenda? Or will our unlikely hero and his
covert crew summon their deepest inner strength and save humanity from an
unspeakable act of destruction.
