Happy Book Birthday to Distant Heart Sounds! #new_release

8/24/2020

Each new release is a huge accomplishment. Authors agonize over each word and nervously pick at their story and hope that someone will pick up their book and love it as much as they do.

Today is an amazing day for Distant Heart Sounds. Kate MacInnis' new release is an exciting romp through a romance with ghosts butting in along the way. I loved this book when I read it! So cute! Sometimes the secondary characters steal the day!!

But don't take my word for it, check this out for yourself!

Blurb:
Just because you haven’t seen a ghost, it doesn’t mean they aren’t around. You can’t see germs either, but you know they exist everywhere. Besides, everybody has a ghost story or unexplained experience—yet no one wants to admit that they believe in spirits.

What if your life was turned upside down and you suddenly had the ability to see, hear and communicate with those on the other side? How would you handle the situation?

Distant Heart Sounds takes a look at what Morgan Cutler encounters after an unexpected near-death-experience leaves her with psychic abilities. As a 40-ish, skeptical, heard-it-all-before, metro Detroit emergency center nurse, Morgan believes she has seen just about everything in her 20+ years on the job, but then one day, she feels someone she cannot see.

The new Morgan opens herself to a relationship with a hunky doctor at the emergency center, who has some psychic ability as well. Romance, humor, mystery, and being connected to others bring peace and joy into her life.

But what happens when Morgan witnesses the evil inside one man’s heart? Some secrets are better left unseen.
 
EXCERPT:
Morgan crossed the room and grabbed the baseball bat from her bedroom closet and placed it on her shoulder in a “batter up” gesture. She stepped into the dark hall outside the bedroom where a glow from the first floor of the house gave off enough light to flood the stairs. She frowned at the intense smell of freshly baked bread and rich food that made her mouth water since she could neither cook nor bake. At the top of the staircase, she crouched with her back against the wall and planted one bare foot on the first step as she leaned closer to the banister.

With the bat now cradled on her lap, she peered downstairs. In the foyer below, she counted more than thirty people gathered in the entry, library, and living room of her small home. She was sure she didn’t even know that many people. The lights blazed as the revelers laughed, ate hors d’oeuvres from silver platters, smoked cigarettes, stood around the shiny black piano as they sang Cole Porter tunes, and clinked champagne glasses filled to the brim. Several people made toasts for good luck and great health. One gentleman spilled the bubbly liquid with a flourish onto the shiny marble floor as he tried to hit the target of another gentleman who lay there with his mouth wide open. A few couples snuggled into corners while others danced, shimmied, and vied for attention. Everyone was dressed in black and white silks and satins with dazzling jewels and long strings of pearls.
​
“I don’t own a piano,” Morgan said out loud. “And my house doesn’t have marble floors.”

Michigan-born and raised, Kate earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism at Oakland University and Master’s Degree in American Culture at the University of Michigan-Flint. As a professional writer for more than 20 years, her career has been primarily in health care, particularly hospitals.

Kate is married to the love of her life and has two grown sons and three grandchildren.
