Description

<p>Dr. Bethany McNeal is living her dream as a pediatric resident in one of the most sought-after medical centers in Seattle. Beautiful and intelligent, she’s missing only one thing—love, which she put on hold to focus on her career after ending a tumultuous relationship. Everything changes when she meets Dr. Brent Anderson, a charming and handsome fellow resident. Despite her reservations, Bethany falls for Brent—hard. When she learns Brent is married several months into their relationship, she immediately breaks it off. After graduating residency and going their separate ways, Bethany tries to move on with another man—real estate broker and personal trainer Charles Blakely. But just when things get serious with Charles, she realizes she’s still in love with Brent, and she finds herself caught between the two men, facing a series of difficult decisions and harrowing events that will change her life forever. Will she be able to recover from the vital temptations that turned her perfect life upside down?</p>

Story Behind The Book

I was so excited and honored to see my story published, but what makes it even more special is my teenage son painted the picture that was used for my book cover. He is a talented artist and I am so proud to share this accomplishment with him. And yes, he does get a percentage of my earnings :) Then I take it back for room and board. Not really, but I should.

Reviews

Here are a few notable reviews: <br /><br />The truth is sometimes silenced for simplicity, but sometimes you simply must find it out. &quot;The Truth Lies in the Dark&quot; tells of orphaned Amanda. Raised by her grandparents, her family history is told to her in ways she doesn't quite believe. Her recurring nightmares are her only clue as she begins to dig into her family's history and starts to find things that her family would rather she didn't. &quot;The Truth Lies in the Dark&quot; is a novel of deeply hidden skeletons in the closet, making for riveting reading. ~Midwest Book Review<br /><br /><br />&quot;This freshman author has offered up an account of what happens when life is not what it seems. Readers are quickly pulled into the tale, which moves at a good pace.&quot; ~Hartford Magazine (Feb. 2009, Vol. VII, No.2, Pg. 27)<br /><br />&quot;...it was a great read, really kept me turning the pages, well written, good character development and nice twist at the end. Overall.... yes, I would recommend the book especially for a weekend out of town/vacation or beach read.&quot; ~radio personality Joan Dylan, WRCH 100.5 (Jan. 2009)<br /><br />&quot;The truth truly lies in the dark in Callender's well-written page-turner, guaranteed to keep the reader on the edge of the seat and guessing to the last page. Well done, Ms Callender, more books please.&quot; ~Pat Elliott from BookLoons (Dec.2008)<br /><br />More review cans be found on author's website:<br /><a href="http://sites.google.com/site/kristincallenderbooks/">http://sites.google.com/site/kristincallenderbooks/</a><br /><br />and on author's Amazon home page:<br /><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Truth-Lies-Dark-Kristin-Callender/dp/1604520140">http://www.amazon.com/Truth-Lies-Dark-Kristin-Callender/dp/1604520140</a>
