Editorial Reviews

Review

This is a story of faith and trust in God to work things out even when at times it seems impossible. It shows patience and strength to go on with our lives even when the future doesn't seem to include what we want.
I liked Forbidden Fruit Temptation for many reasons. I found Crystal's writing style engaging and the story held my interest all the way through.
Crystal, obviously has a lifetime of medical and nursing experience and it shows through the details in Forbidden Fruit Temptation.
The story flows smoothly and even the hospital scenes are treated with great dignity.
The story teaches the importance of family life, prayer, faith, and Christian values.
Love conquers all when God is on your side.

Please THRILL me and quench my Inquisitiveness -

The Intreguing Carolina's of America's South.

How I love the southern states of America, with their loaded history of intrigue.

I lived and worked in one of the states for a short duration and my husband took me to see many of the others. Oh so interesting.....

I have begun writing about these area's and learning much of the customs and lifestyle.

This story "House of Shadows" revolves from Louisiana to North Carolina in the 1902 timeline.

The civil war was still a strong point with old survivers. Gracious living, good manners and hospitality prevailed.

Travel over water involved Steamboats or Paddle Steamers.

Roads were dirt and rides were rough.

 And who could forget the delicate feminine fashions?

Enjoy a short FREE read of this story.

"HOUSE of SHADOWS" 
Louisiana 1902.
Mariah Kingsford FLEES her Opera stardom in New Orleans to escape an abusive pursuer. Arriving back at her North Carolina plantation she is stunned by its state of disrepair while even more alarming are the disturbing secrets it now harbors.

A Christmas Story

Book Description:

Nine years ago she was left for dead and Maddison Baer gained a life. It wasn’t her real life, but it was more than she’d had before. Pretending to care about her looks and social lifestyle was sometimes more exhausting than fun. Lying to her only real friend was hard, but if it kept her safe, she could do it.

Then there was Ryan Gramble. A man that made Maddison speechless.

Ryan has spent years running from one challenge to another. He’s come to Chandler County to face and deal with his previous traumas and come from under his family’s overprotective wing. He has used his love for horses as a way to treat himself and others with equine therapy. He prides himself on his ability to read people.
Still, he isn’t ready for Dr. Maddison Baer, with that beautiful face and those disturbingly familiar eyes…that lie.

Their attraction is instantaneous, but neither is willing to pursue what they believe is an ill-fated relationship. That is, until danger comes perilously close to Maddison and she is forced to seek refuge amongst the lights and glitter of Chandler County at Christmas. As the threat looms Ryan steps up to keep Maddison safe only to find that they are in danger of falling for one another. 

Will they give in and accept the gift they’ve been denying themselves?

This inspirational interracial romantic suspense is part of the Chandler County multi-author branded series. This standalone is my third book in this series.

Here are some teasers if you’d like to use them

BLESSED by GOD to SERVE

As I age and look back at the bygone days it's difficult to realize the age I am today.

I am almost 74 years old. WHAT!! I don't feel that, however, I can see it in the mirror so I rarely look.

Where did that painfully shy teenage girl disappear?

The years have gone, (somewhere) and after forced to retire at 63 and mourning the fact, I began to write.

It's good to keep the mind active and for me, I enjoy writing what I hope, will uplift, encourage and inspire the reader.

Lately, I was contacted by the National Library of Australia in our capital city of Canberra. They requested one of my books.  Supposing they will request the rest, as I have now learned -  I have purchased them to post on.

In the six years of writing, I have finally given in to have a photo taken with six (there are five more) of my books. In years to come my children and grandchildren will perhaps enjoy to see it.

My son Peter, did the honors.

                Whatever your gift - use it to bless others and proclaim Jesus as Lord. 

"As each has received a gift, use it to serve one another, as good stewards of God’s varied grace: whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ. To him belong glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen." 1 Peter 4:10-11

MYSTERY in North East Tennessee

Love the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee.

The music with banjo, guitar, fiddle, together with clog dancing.

STORY LINE OF MY NEW BOOK:

Who is the mystery healer concealed in the Great Smokey Mountains of East Tennessee? Why does he need to keep his identity a secret?

Marni Granger is a young woman who lives at the base of the mountain. As a child, falling against a hot cooking pot, she burns the side of her face. Being teased at school and later stared at as an adult, Marni remains living in isolation with her grandfather. Her one friend is a half wolf dog, rescued by her as a pup.

Marni would like a life similar to other young women, yet she feels all this will be denied her due to her facial deformity.

Heading off to the base of the mountains to pick berries, she wanders up and becomes lost in the dark. When her pet disappears, Marni is terrified and cries out to the Lord for help. A mysterious woman in white calls her name then leads her to a large cabin on the plateau.

Here she will meet a handsome man and the hidden surgeon who performs reconstruction operations, un-allowed in 1885.

Did you know that Davey Crockett's grandparents graves are in this town??  

They were massacred by Indians.

Crockett Tavern in those days 

The Crockett Tavern Museum is situated about 15 miles from Rogersville, at Morristown.

Davey Crockett's log cabin is also not far from Rogersville. In a different direction to Morristown.

I was amazed by it, built without a nail.. on a rushing river frontage. Take a picnic and spend the day. 

How it looks now. (me there)

How it looked before.

Sitting looking over the Smoky Mountains, of North East Tennessee.

At the base of these mountains is Gatlinburg. Ray and I were married at Pigeon Forge -  close to there on 12th September 2004 by Rev Keith Leonard.

Psalm 96:11-12  (KJV)

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.
Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice.

5.0 out of 5 starsA TRIP TO THE AUSTRALIAN OUTBACK CAN CHANGE A PERSON

ByRobin Leigh Morgan on September 5, 2017

Format: Kindle Edition

I read this book via a KINDLE Unlimited download.

What happens when you take a captivating, handsome, Plastic Surgeon who insists in keeping his professional and personal lives totally separate. Dr. Javin St.Clair is constantly being pursued from both sides; by clients wanting his skilled hands to rid them of their deformities on one side, and woman just wanting to claim his body and make him their own.

Everything is fine, fine that is until he decides to hire a nursing assistant. Sage Lauren Grace Saunders, is a highly skilled professional who has confused his mind and winds up turning his life upside down by her outrageous beauty, and has him running after her.

The life alternating effect which had affected Javin’s existence when he hired Sage also winds up changing her life as well. While he might enjoy having an arrogant and wealthy following, Javin’s real passion is to help those who’ll never be able to afford his skilled hands; which he why he invites Sage to join him for his on his next mission into the Australian outback to a clinic situated there.

Ms. Lindsey could have easily given her readers a hot, steamy reading experience, but instead has given them one which is a sweet, clean romantic one. She embellishes the reading experience with a sprinkling of Javin’s desire to share and educate Sage with some Christian beliefs. So, in the end, with all things considered, I happy to give Ms. Lindsey 5 STARS for her efforts here.

TIME Travel Christian Romance

Storyline:

A deceased mother challenges a brilliant nurse from beyond the grave to uncover a century-old family mystery. She eventually triumphs over tragedy at immense personal cost.

On receiving a mysterious packet from BEYOND the grave, Enya Raffetty embarks on a mission to learn more about her family’s origins.

She travels to the mystifying OutBack town of Brolga where her great grandfather began the family heritage.

Settling in at the old family homestead, she discovers a photo album from far back in time which entices her to visit their isolated graveyard.

Without any care of an approaching thunderstorm, Enya walks up onto the hill behind the house. Standing in the rain, she gets hit by a bolt of lightning.

That evening in 1899, she is found unconscious by Lockland Dawson, a handsome Jackaroo landowner, who is fascinated by her.

A nurse is hired to tend for the injured stranger at Lock’s Kooyong Homestead property.
Slowly regaining her memory, Enya realizes she is from a time in the future yet having fallen in love with the magnetic Lock and developing friendships in the district; she hopes to remain.

Eventually, Enya needs to confess her knowledge to Lock and her nurse Linda. Although this is confusing to them, it sums up her differences.

Lock has fallen in love with Enya and is troubled she will disappear in the same manner she mysteriously arrived. However Enya convinces him, there are no certainties in life and every day must be enjoyed with a trust and faith in God.

As a nurse with a Ph.D., she is more advanced in her medical understanding than the local doctor and takes on delivering a difficult birth, making her a valued commodity in the neighborhood.

This book holds, suspense, drama, happiness, sorrow, faith, and love, down through the ages.

Galatians 4:4-5 “But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.”

I am not trying to presume that God will allow us to travel through time.

With God there is no time. When we arrive in Paradise, there will be no time.

As with any fictional story, it is the imagination of the author.
So, this story of Time Travel is no different.

The one greatest truth is only, - God's Love for us. It Never Fails.
