  • K Scott Fuchs (Spoken Label, January 2024)

    Latest up from Spoken Label (Author Chat Podcast) making his debut is the wonderful K Scott Fuchs.

    K. Scott Fuchs is a novelist, poet, and performer. Time and Temperance is his first novel released; the follow-up prequel sequel, Mrs. Coleman of Coalbrookdale is set to be released in early 2024. He is also the author of the poetry compilations, Six Months in Wigan and Poetry from Ryecroft Hall which are also forthcoming.
    Time and Temperance is described as “Along the canals outside of Marple, England, a despondent and lonely soul crosses paths with Temperance Lee-a woman whose beauty and elegance is matched only by her warmth, intelligence, charm, and wit. Their connection is instant, a love that defies explanation. But Temperance harbours a secret, one that shadows her every step: she is not an ordinary woman and she is not from this time.
    In this electrifying split-time, dual-narrative saga that melds the Victorian era with the twenty-first century, love collides with the supernatural in a dramatic and action-filled tale of healing, redemption, and recovery. As a passionate and tumultuous romance unfolds, two souls from different times and places find that their love does not come without challenges and troubles; challenges and troubles that they must overcome together whilst they confront their past traumas. But it will take more than just time-it will take understanding, exploration, faith, and unwavering belief in the power of love.
    The book can be purchased on Amazon at https://www.amazon.co.uk/Time-Temperance-K-Scott-Fuchs/dp/B0CQSRTF6X/ref=sr_1_2?qid=1704134383&refinements=p_27%3AK.+Scott+Fuchs&s=books&sr=1-2&text=K.+Scott+Fuchs
