Butterfly Serenade

by Julianna Douglas

Overview

Rose Whore. Slut. Tramp. I don't want to believe the words, but they're true. Having sex with strangers temporarily affords me the necessary control to quiet the demons from my nightmares. But each unfulfilling encounter leaves me more emotionally empty than before. I'm trapped in a dead, brown shell, unable to break free. Until the day he walks into my life. Colin is everything that's good and pure-a beacon of light to my dark, lost soul. His music is a soothing balm, warming long-frozen places inside me. His kindness disarms me, making me long for more. But to have more, I'd need to reveal the horrors of my past. And I can't tell anyone. It'll tear me apart. Colin I've been waiting for her all my life. From the moment I laid eyes her, I knew Rose was my soul mate. I'm drawn to her inner beauty and yearn to show her the love she's never known. The pain reflected in her lovely amber eyes rouses emotions deep within me, stirring the music in my soul and making my fingers take flight over the keyboard. But Rose is a woman holding closely guarded secrets. More than my next breath, I want to quell the haunted look in her eyes ... heal her broken spirit and make her whole again. She doesn't believe that's possible. But I won't give up. Not until she lets me love her-all of her. Warning: Contains graphic descriptions of abuse that may distress some readers.

About the Author

Julianna is a hopeless romantic and believer in fairy tales. Even as a little girl, her fondest dream was to find a Prince Charming who would sweep her off her feet. She's happy to report she's been married to him for twenty-two years. Although she's been an avid reader since she was two years old, she never envisioned herself as a writer until six years ago. Now she feels like she's finally found her life's passion. The muses keep the ideas flowing faster than she can put them on the page. She hopes that her readers will love her characters and stories every bit as much as she's loved creating them.

Julianna currently lives in hot, sunny Phoenix, Arizona with her husband, an adult son, a teenage daughter, a Husky/Great Pyrenees mix dog, and two cats. In addition to writing, she enjoys reading, hanging out on GoodReads, surfing the web, watching TV or movies, book shopping, and feeding her insatiable thirst for knowledge.
