Review

Fan Fiction: Uber

There are many stories to be told about one of the most infamous days in history. There are some stories that grip you from the beginning and won’t let go. You sob because you know they are real. Yes they are fiction but they are based on fact.

The Pocket Watch is one of those stories.

We all know the events of 9/11 and the devastating effect it had on thousands of lives. Over 3,000 people lost their lives that day and many first responders suffered and died from the poisonous toxins they breathed in while searching the debris.

The Pocket Watch is one of the most moving pieces of fiction I have read in a long time. It tells the story of a courageous firefighter and the woman she believes may have died in the attacks on the World Trade Center. Cheyne makes you care for the characters and that, for me, is what makes a great story. Can you feel for the characters? Do you care what happens to them? Are you willing them on?

Beautifully written and it's a timely reminder of how easy love could be lost.

Rating: 5/5

The fourth installment of the Intertwined Souls Series, Awakenings, continues the journey of two extraordinary women, Eva Haralambos and Zoe Lambros to Greece and Germany. Having gone back to Greece to reclaim Zoe’s inheritance after the Greek Civil War had ended, they are confronted by their own haunted memories and secrets.

Zoe contends with own harrowing memories and relives a day that shattered her soul but out of the darkness there is light.

They get help from two formidable women—Zoe’s Aunt, Dr. Stella Nikas-Lambros, an exuberant, zany character in her own right, and Theresa Mitsos, the quiet, gentle soul with extraordinary paranormal abilities.

In Germany they discover secrets that have spanned generations and shocking revelations. Their lives are once again altered in ways neither of them expected.
