About the Book

The first two books of the Paradise Series, "Pretentious Paradise" and "A Quest For Paradise," follow the story of Jina Kinney, a daddy's girl, raised among the elite of Charleston. After losing her high school love to presumptions and prejudice, she follows what she believes are the expectations of her family and marries a suitable young man. After a few years of tranquil marriage, her steady way of life is presented with unexpected twists and tribulations as her long-ago lover, Grant, moves to the same area as herself and befriends her husband. Throughout the chapters and chance meetings, the prejudice and harsh feelings she once harbored toward Grant dissolve into a confusing tangle of love and distrust. Meanwhile, her marriage begins to sour as she and her husband lose sight of anything they may have had in common years before.Torn between doing right by her marriage and the passion that had never died between herself and Grant, Jina begins to lose faith and hold on her "perfect" world as well as losing sight of who she is and any self-love she once had.In "A Quest For Paradise," Jina's marriage takes a turn for the worst as her husband begins to abuse her, both physically and emotionally. In a winter storm, Justin's violence reaches its peak and in a moment of panic and bloodshed, she loses a close friend. The shamble is enough for her to make a bolt for freedom but almost costs her own life as well.Just when she may stand a second chance at true love, presumptions once again drive her and Grant apart. After a heartbreaking death in the family, Jina launches out on her own to rediscover who she is as a person and to build the confidence her volatile marriage had stolen from her.Through the rescue of a close friend, a chance meeting with a divulging character, and the freedom she finds on the island of Galveston, Jina finally rids herself of the weight and shackles of presumptions and stands another chance at love...but this time, she may have two to choose between - the past or the present.
