But she never could have guessed how deep the mystery runs and what it involves.

Forced to rely on only herself, her friend Chris and loyal dog Baxter, she plunges into a strange, new world pre-destined in ancient times.

***NOTE: All SIX books in After the Crash are available. Read the whole series now!!!*** I'll jump right into why I'm here: I LOVE to read. I was one of those kids that was never without a book. Or two...or three. If I had a spare minute, whether in class or on the bus or late at night when I should have been asleep; I was reading. I also always wanted to be a writer. I wrote my first short story when I was eight on an old typewriter, with lots of whiteout (the kind you had to hold in front of the key and re-type to make it cover it). Finally, at 43, I accomplished my dreams. Thanks to the Indie platform I was able to publish my first book. Seven years later I have over forty, and I am absolutely thrilled to be able to connect with other like-minded authors, and especially readers, here on Goodreads. That people are reading my stories and enjoying the worlds I am creating exceeds my expectations, and I'm looking forward to where this might take me. Now...for those that like the more formal blurb: :) Author Tara Ellis lives in a small town in beautiful Washington State in the Pacific Northwest. She enjoys the quiet lifestyle with her two adult kids and several dogs. Having been a firefighter/EMT and working in the medical field for many years, she now spends her time on family, photography, and creating various worlds, mysteries, and countless adventures.
