The Lost Soul Page 11
“What?” Alexis bolted upright. “You told us you only came across him a few times.”
“I lied.”
“Of course you did,” Alexis said, letting out a puff of air. “Are you going to tell me what happened now?”
“It’s simple. He sold information to bad people. I found out, and that was the end of us.”
“Us? You had a relationship with him?” Hunter asked. “As in a sexual one?”
“That’s really none of your business.” Willow slammed the gearshift into park and glared at Hunter.
“All right. But I think we need to know what happened between the two of you because if he is my other brother, we need him. Roger is still out there, so all we did is buy ourselves some time.”
Willow unhooked her seatbelt, resting her hand on the trigger of her gun. “I went to turn him in to our superiors, and I ended up getting reprimanded, and Gabe just sat back and let it happen. I was furious, so I told him to go fuck himself, and I never re-enlisted.”
“Why didn’t you tell us? Especially since you also believed in the Collective Order and knew Gabe could have been one of the brothers the second Brett came into our lives.” Alexis didn’t get mad at her sisters often, but right now her blood boiled.
“I told Hazel and Savanah while you and this guy were out cold. Just haven’t gotten around to filling you in.”
“Doesn’t make me feel better,” Alexis said, taking Hunter’s hand as he helped her from the car. Her energy was still zapped but coming back slowly. “I take it he’s still not answering you?”
Willow shook her head. “I’m going to meet him in an hour.”
“We’re going to go swim with the dolphins,” Hunter said. “So, if you need back up, it’s going to have to be someone else.”
“I think I’m going to like being with you,” Alexis said.
THE LOST CONNECTION (Gabe and Willow’s story) will be coming out in the first part of 2019. Thank you for taking the time to read THE LOST SOUL. Please feel free to leave an HONEST review on Amazon and Goodreads. Thanks!
Terminology and Definitions
Precognition/Premonition/Visions: the ability to see the future in a vision before it happens.
Retrocognition: the ability to see the past.
Remote Viewing: the ability to project one’s mind into a distant or unseen target.
View VS Vision: When I refer to a “view” it’s when a character is using Remote Viewing abilities which happen in the present, real time. When I refer to a “vision” a character is seeing a possible future outcome or event or a past event as it happened.
The Collective Order: the four Raven Sisters and Quadruplets boys separated at birth coming together to help unit psychics across the globe.
Italics VS “italics”: In this particular book, the hero and heroine can communicate telepathically in a remote view. When they are in a view, their conversation will be in quotes and italics. When they are communication via telepathy and NOT in a view, no quotes will be used.
The Collective Order
Once feared to be witches, psychics of The Collective Order were forced into hiding. Ever since, they have lived in secrecy, waiting for a powerful vision to become a reality.
The founder’s daughter holds out hope when a premonition shows her a future where they’re no longer condemned to die, and instead sought after, their talents cultivated to be used for the greater good. The future of the Collective Order rests on four sisters finding quadruplet brothers separated at birth. With each union, they’re one step closer to restoring the unique talents the descendants of the Collective Order once held.
The rise of The Collective Order is only the beginning. While the Order grows and adapts with the demands of humankind, it reveals covert factions wielding special talents and the ability to pass on coveted powers to the chosen few.
Welcome to the Collective Order.
the Global Alliance Coalition
In the early 1970’s, the US Government created a secret division, Assisted Viewing Reconnaissance, designed to cultivate extrasensory perception. Within AVR, Operation Windsong specialized in the practice of remote viewing to help guide troops on the ground with infiltrating enemy lines to locate and extract American prisoners. When the operation failed killing twenty American soldiers, the government was forced to shut down the program.
Armed with the knowledge that the project failed due to inferior recruitment for the program, retired General Harold Armstrong set out to reinvent the program. He took the idea to G.A.C. or the Global Alliance Coalition whose mission is simple: Save lives, even if it means bending a few rules.
The Perception Project, now led by Farrah Milestone, is a division of G.A.C. pursuing excellence in training of ex-military men and women possessing known extrasensory perception skills. Their talents are utilized mostly to aid the military in strategic planning, exfiltration, extraction, and unsanctioned missions. However, they are also contracted by private business and citizens, working in conjunction with other divisions of G.A.C. when their special talents are needed.

I first started writing while carting my kids to one hockey rink after the other, averaging 170 games per year between 3 kids in 2 countries and 5 states. My first book, IN TWO WEEKS was originally published in 2007.

I’m currently enjoying the next phase of my life…the empty NESTER! My husband and I spend our winters in Jupiter, Florida and our summers in Rochester, NY. We have three amazing children who have all gone off to carve out their places in the world, while I continue to craft stories that I hope will make you readers feel good and put a smile on your face.
