"Two couples, one desire, separated by thousands of years" will come to define "True Love" for the reader. The first couple, Mikolas and Helena, meet during the Festival of Dionysus in the last row of a Greek amphitheater. It is 326 BC and fate brings the two together. In the second love story another young man, Nikolas, is brought by chance to what is now the ruin of the same amphitheater lying along the Crimean coast of the Black Sea, and he meets Elena, again in the last row of the amphitheater. For both couples their first eye contact lights a flame that will burn bright as they explore their intense feelings. Other shared interests will be revealed: Mikolas and Nikolas's love for the sea and the ships and yachts that sail the world, Helena and Elena's love for painting and its meaning will become evident as both stories unfold. These short but beautifully told tales will answer the readers question "Is all of this simply coincidence?" or perhaps the similarities reveal a truth about one of the Novel's quotations: "Some love lasts a life time. True Love lasts forever."
Author Biography
Storytelling for me began when I was a child with pajamas that covered everything including my feet. I sat in the living room on an ottoman, with my legs crossed under me, just before bedtime and told stories to my Mom and Dad. They were short and always ended with a loud "The End". My work with the written word began the first year of college in Dr. Cooper's creative writing class. Rather than following my heart and continue the development of my skill as a writer, I went to work as a pilot. In 1999 I found my way back to the warmth of plot, dialogue and narrative. I was introduced to my mentor in 2005, six years and one novel into a rekindled passion for storytelling. He began to guide the development of my skills and redirected my efforts toward new and exciting projects. "True Love", my first love story, has been one of the redirections I am most proud of. I hope you enjoy reading "True Love" and thank you for taking the time to explore True Love's listing. Please come back and leave your comments once you have experienced the tender story about two couples that meet in the same place, separated by 2,000 years. Two more books in the True Love series are currently being outlined. Creating loving memories for my readers... Destin
