No Rest for the Wicked, a thriller love story with a paranormal twist weaves together the stories of two female protagonists, Cassandra Edwards and Scarlet Pennington, each woman from a different time era. The plot is fraught with danger and adventure, as it flashes back and forth between each woman's life. Yet beneath it all the story is character driven, with a richly entangled love triangle which crosses over the centuries, uniting the women's two worlds in a cataclysmic finale. For anyone who has loved and lost, or still wants to believe in a little magic, this novel is for them.Wasn't there some ancient adage, an old wives' tale or something that said if you saw yourself die in your dream, then you died in real life? God, I hoped that wasn't true. I could feel the white-hot flames licking at my body, the heat more intense than I could ever have imagined. I could smell the acrid and pungent burning of the skin. I was cursed. Perhaps I had always been. Some might claim deservedly. From afar I could hear screams mirroring the pain I was in. I knew how that dispossessed girl felt. I recognized that woman, in all her complexities. The strangled tone of her voice was foreign to me, though I knew the sound must have come from my mouth. I alone burned wickedly upon the pyre. I longed to wake up from this sadistic fantasy. With great remorse poised on her lips, the damned brunette had died in her sleep. Or had she? This is the ill-fated story of Cassandra Edwards, whose life takes some paranormal twists after her carefully crafted average existence comes undone. After a debilitating migraine causes her to black-out, Cassandra awakes to find that she has unwittingly written the story of a young Puritan named Scarlet Pennington. She begins reliving Scarlet's tragic life, not only in writing, but as a reluctant hostage in Scarlet's memory. Cassandra must unravel Scarlet's many secrets before the unconscionable evil that haunted Wethersfield hundreds of years ago invades Cassandra's world. Now her past and present are set on a collision course, as Cassandra must choose between magic and reality, truth and fiction, betwixt her two true loves. Can both Cassandra and Scarlet acquire their heart's one desire? Not every fairytale has a happy ending, as they come to realize--there is no rest for the wicked.
