Patty's Musings

This is a humorous story of an incident that I hold dear to my heart when I was a young mother of two teenage boys. I was challenged daily to put food on the table for these guys who were always hungry. This is me being real, mistakes and all, sitting down to share with you my stories to bring a little light into your lives. 

This story is a fantasy about an evil mermaid who wreaks havoc in Maren Raybourne's life. She wants Maren's soul so she can live on land and leave the sea existence behind her. This mermaid also wants Maren's love interest. 

Never dismiss the ancient things put away for safe keeping. Plus a bonus story. 

This episode of my podcast includes interesting facts about the book and the cover. It's the 5th book in my series I call The Velvet Shoe Collection. All of these books are set in the 1920's and 1930's. You not only follow the lives of the main characters, but the lives of the secondary characters, as well. An Unlikely Elegance's focus is on Fanny Zapelli, a former mob moll who is now able to transform her life. There is mystery and intrigue woven into this tale of a woman who completely transforms herself. I hope you enjoy
