Local Author Day

Genevieve Huffman presents Time and Soul

In a universe governed by a continuous cycle of reincarnation, death and time are no match for sorcerers Eva and Tir or their committed, queer love. But while Eva takes a hard-earned rest between lives, a villainous Edward plots revenge and sets out to destroy the universe. Moments before complete annihilation, Eva awakens and travels back in time to erase Edward’s destruction. Returning to present day, Eva searches for Tir and devises a plan to prevent Edward from enacting his plan a second time. Once back with Tir, Eva faces off with the darkness consuming the universe. But her feelings of insecurity surrounding who she is threaten to upend their relationship. While fighting for a safe future together, they explore the history of their singular love. Could their unique powers grow with their love for each other? And is it enough to defeat the evil forces at work? Traversing time and space, they seek to uncover Edward’s true identity. And when the dust from their adventure settles, they face off against Edward, armed with their collective powers of time and soul. Journey to a mythical world of dragons and magic and discover a love story that transcends gender and embodies an authentic representation of queer relationships.

Scott Lord presents Come November

November 1947: Jeanne and John, two newspaper journalists, fall in young love as they travel from Chicago to New York to witness the momentous vote of the United Nations to partition Palestine and create the State of Israel. When they discover an assassination plot meant to swing the outcome, they must put their personal lives on hold and race the clock to stop it, uncovering elaborate details of international politics along the way.

Fifty years later, having gone their separate ways, the two reconnect in Italy. Set against a stunning pastoral backdrop, Jeanne and John relive those turbulent days together and explore whether their love has stood the test of time.
International thriller meets operatic Italian romance in this intricate tale of love, politics, and misunderstandings. Come November is a celebration of history, family bonds, redemption, and second-chance love sure to please fans of thrillers and romance alike.
