Cover Reveal - DREAMLAND (Time Travel Romance)

My first time travel romance was a book called "Timeless Passion" by Constance O'Day Flannery back in 1986.  I was in heaven because I was a lover of history so combining the two things I loved most (history and romance novels) was pure nirvana.  Of course, Ms. O'Day Flannery is considered by many to be the woman who jump started the paranormal & time travel genre, so I feel honored that I was able to buy the first printing of this book at my local Wal-Mart.

And I've always wanted to write a time travel story but had never really thought out the logistics.  And besides, I felt the genre eventually became overused.  So when I had this vision of a rock star who traveled in time, my mind immediately latched onto the mechanism on how to get him to the past.  I wanted something organic and came up with him falling into a coma.

Music is often a theme in my books.  It was the backdrop for my characters in "In a Chord" and it was the profession of Emmarie in "Star Mates".  So I had two songs in mind when I began to develop Dicen's story.  The first was "Scars" by Colton Dixon and the second was "If I Could be Where You Are" by Enya.  "Scars" became Dicen's anthem and the other became his love story.  I've always wanted to write a man who was full of fear and addiction and have love redeem him, so I pictured him as this drugged out asshole who goes too far and almost dies. The coma lets him explore a world quite unlike the one he's used to, and I sent him the Roaring Twenties.  It's a time period not often written about in time travel and I just loved the frenetic energy of then, the whole "Live Like We're Dying" mentality.  The book is entirely from his POV, but I wanted it that way because this is his story, his redemption.

I just got the cover today and I'm not sure how I feel about the girl.  I had in mind a different type of Flapper, so please give me your opinion.  The book is set to release on October 2nd and I hope you enjoy Dicen as much as I enjoyed writing him.

Dicen does his best to adapt, and with Juliet by his side, he discovers a world that offers him a clean slate.  But when he’s pulled back to the present, separated by time from the one person that gives him a reason to live, will he find a way to push past his demons as well as find Juliet again?
