A little about the book:

In the much anticipated sequel to The Ravenstone: The Secret of Ninham Mountain, Aidan and Nadia experience a terrifyingly real vision of a massive earthquake which threatens their mother’s life. The mission to save her grows in scope as they investigate, and their subsequent trips across time and space force them to face unimaginable dangers. They must rely on their growing skills plus all the powerful magic of the Ravenstone in their urgent need to stop the disaster facing the earth. Will they succeed? And at what cost?

REVIEW: “Solomon and Carey’s imaginative storytelling sweeps you into a fascinating tale of mystery and adventure. Young twins Nadia and Aidan stumble upon an ancient power that could help their family in the future, or trap them in the past forever. Highly recommended!”   ~ Linda Zimmermann, successful author of 30 books about the paranormal and mysterious stone sites.

Our funny but tender women’s fiction novel, “88 Guys for Coffee,” is featured on Chick Lit Central!  So great…

They say:

“Contemporary chick lit at its best, 88 Guys for Coffee is hilarious and heartbreaking, soul-searching and spiritual, loosely based on the five-year online dating saga the author endured before meeting her husband on Match.”

Thanks Chick Lit Central!

What a GREAT book! I loved every page. I won the book in a Goodreads giveaway and was SO happy to be introduced to this great author. I’ll definitely add her to my favorites! I loved the title, the ending, and everything in-between! Easy to read (but hard to put down)… The title, description and other reviews give you lots, so I won’t repeat it all, but I will repeat — READ THIS, you won’t be disappointed!

On-line Dates and the People who Love Them.
By Mary E. Latela  on July 26, 2017
Format: Paperback|Verified Purchase
Imagine that the love of your life has “moved on.” Imagine spending five years trying to find a good man – online! 88 Guys for Coffee is a funny, sad, all too real journey, and Laura is the character who won’t give up. She never changes her profile, yet she meets all kinds of guys, just for coffee.
 
Her true goal is to find a soulmate to come into her life and heal the loss of Kurt. She quickly analyzes the profile, deciding whether to send a wink or an email. The initial phone call is essential. If all looks well, there will be coffee. Laura’s best friend is Francesca, who appears from time to time, almost a guardian angel. Then there’s Hank, her friend. This is a book for people who seek love, who want to know what the on-line dating scene is like, or who eagerly read to see whether Laura finds a soulmate. Ms. Solomon knows Connecticut very well and it would be great to know more about her character, Laura. Diane L. Solomon tells a very good story, and I look forward to more stories from this new author.

5 Stars! What a great review! “OMG this is just such an hilarious book. I know I shouldn’t find pleasure in someone else’s down falls, but at times I just had to stop reading because I couldn’t see any more, it was just so very funny.”   READ MORE
