All you need is
love
“Live each day being the reason someone smiled, the
inspiration for someone to fight, the strength for someone to heal.” By the
time I read that line spoken by one of the characters in Circle in the Sand, I
was completely captured by the story of four friends so different and yet so
perfectly linked. Three women and one man, each takes their separate journey,
yet they are never more than an emotional heart-beat apart.
I enjoyed the eccentricities that bound these friends together.
Small things like passing page-worn classic books back and forth over the
years, each friend making notes in the margins in different colored ink. Short
notes reflecting their emotional responses to the book at that particular time
in their lives. A very engaging quirk.
It took me a few chapters to get comfortable with the
changes in the characters’ POV but once I got with the rhythm I enjoyed it
immensely.
Author Lia Fairchild takes the reader on a journey from
longing to terror and back. This is an honest story about love and friendship
and how it continues to change and grow throughout our lives.
I received a copy of this novel as an Advance Reader Copy
in return for an honest review.
I’ve been creating stories my whole life, but only for me, in my own head. Then one day I sat down and started to write a book. I completed my first novel, In Search of Lucy, in February of 2011. Seven months later, AmazonEncore contacted me about representing my book. It’s currently in the top 10 for Kindle Drama.
My second full-length novel, Vigil Annie, was released on Amazon in December of 2012! One reviewer called this thriller “suspenseful, well-crafted, and fast paced.”
I recently completed my first romantic comedy, The Tech Guy, now available on Amazon.
My other works include a mystery series (A Hint of Murder) and a short, sweet romance (Special Delivery).
I was born and raised in Southern California and hold a bachelor’s degree in journalism and a multiple subject teaching credential. I’m a wife and mother of two teenagers.
