Ripples

"Just as ripples spread out when a single pebble is dropped into water, the actions of individuals can have far-reaching effects." ~Dalai Lama

You don’t have to read the dark romance Consequences series to enjoy this stand-alone novel, but if you know Tony Rawlings, you know that disappointing him isn’t an option.

Imagine being his youngest daughter…imagine telling him the unimaginable… “Those who don’t know history are doomed to repeat it.”

Sometimes ideas find you, and dreams begin as nightmares.

Sometimes the truth that has been kept hidden is the key to opening a door you never knew existed.

“You might not know me. I’m the baby of the Rawlings family, the princess, the daughter who came along later. I’m not like my older siblings, successful at everything they touch. My mother and father have provided me with every luxury as well as their unyielding love and support, but I’m not spoiled. I’m also not content. By example, my parents have shown me how love should be. I don’t know their past, and that doesn’t matter. I know what I’ve seen—two people devoted to one another. I don’t believe that I’ll ever find that kind of love, the kind that forgives and accepts all. And as my life falls to pieces and I travel to visit my family to face their disappointment, I’m not even looking for it. I’m looking for an escape…from my life as a Rawlings…from the pressure to achieve and not let others down. I dream of the time I can live for my own desires without the expectations that come with my name.
I don’t find what I’m seeking…it finds me.
Or should I say…he finds me.
This time is different.
I have a family who will search for me and find the answers.
Little do we know—any of us—that my father set my journey into motion long before I was born.”

Ripples (Unabridged Version) is Natalie’s story, the youngest of Tony and Claire’s children—their baby.
