REVIEWS
“I found myself completely engaged and pretty much read it straight through. I’d highly recommend this book if you enjoy twists and turns and a good surprise ending!”
“The story is about sadness and guilt, and how hard it is to forgive yourself. It is also about what lengths people will go to re-live special events in their lives.”
“Makes you angry and sad in equal parts as nick struggles to come to terms with a marriage break up and a wife who won’t let him see their child. In turn you want to hug him or boot his back side, but all is not as it seems. The twist is unexpected and heartbreaking. Cleverly and emphatically written.”
“Reminisce is a creative look at what would happen if you were able to summon the best memories of your life at will. Beneath the premise lies a question of how we can give our trust to health professionals of medical/holistic drugs who convince us they very knowledgeable. The bigger question: what’s the cost? Every character in the novel pays in a different way.It’s a fun, casual read, yet it’s thought provoking nature stays with you after you set the book down.”

READ CHAPTER 1
Sitting at a back table in Ya Nuan Chinese Restaurant, Justin had pacified his growling stomach. A local food critic recently posted a blog boasting the best Kung Pao Chicken in Phoenix. The assessment had been correct and was by far the best Justin had consumed in a long while.
After practically licking his plate clean, a short, thin Chinese man of about 45 approached him. He introduced himself as Bob, the owner of the establishment. Justin didn’t think he looked or sounded anything like a Bob with his rather heavy Chinese accent.
“You enjoy the Kung Pao?” Bob inquired.
“Dude, it was amazing. The only place that’s even remotely close is this little dive back in Kansas.”
“They have Chinese food in Kansas?” Bob said with a totally straight face.
“Uh, yeah,” Justin replied. Bob laughed, causing Justin to join in the laughter.
“I’m just joking with you. Probably one of my cousins.”
“Really?”
Bob patted him on the shoulder. “You want some more?”
