Nia
Martins believes a fresh start will help her leave her traumatic past behind.
Moving to a different country, she seeks to shake off her demons by doing the
one thing that sets her free from her destructive thoughts – teaching dance.
But change doesn't come easy, and all Nia really wants is to take the next
breath without the perpetual suffocation that follows. Reeves Mitchell has
looked death in the eyes so many times it’s become habitual. That is, until his
best friend's life was on the line. When the one thing he feared the most turns
into reality, all he can do is pick up the pieces of his loss. As Reeves tries
to live with the constant thought of “what if” gnawing at the back of his mind,
he persistently and steadily builds a thick wall around himself. Their solitary
lives are all they have—until fate brings them together. Nia and Reeves’ new
friendship helps make life, shadowed by the ghosts of their past, more
bearable. But as their relationship deepens and new, suppressed feelings emerge
between them, are they willing to retrace their steps back to where wounded
hearts can be broken once more?

Post - ‘My inspiration for Retrace’
"I
can’t put my finger on anything specific that inspired me to write RETRACE. It
was more a blend of many things that eventually grew into a story about letting
go and learning to love and accept. Some of the key elements that did inspire
me though, were a few crazy, vivid dreams that eventually turned into scenes,
music, a lot of music, and mainly the characters themselves. Reeves and Nia
practically seized my mind to the point I couldn't concentrate on anything else
and just had to pour their story out of me. The book traces their hesitant
journey into deep friendship that helps them cope with traumatic pasts, and
gradually leads them to discover the path to heal and accept. As Nia and Reeves’
characters developed into people I believed my readers would feel strongly
about, and connect with, in tandem the story took shape into an emotional ride
with touches of angst, humor, suspense and a whole lot of steam…"
