Blurb:
Matthew is going insane. How else can he explain
remembering things he doesn’t own or trips his wife never took? Not to mention
the visions, and the phantom in the café. But when the man in the visions
reaches out to him with an explanation, and the phantom from the café tracks
him down, things start to make a little more sense.
Morgan is a devout Christian. He believes in God,
Heaven, Hell, and the Bible. But his world spins out of control when his
husband Matthew disappears and a mysterious man tells a tale outside the realm
of reality. How can Morgan put his faith in something so far-fetched? And what
will happen to Matthew if he doesn't?

Excerpt:
A burst of white light
surrounded him, and he held his hand up against the glare reflecting from his
car. His red car. Not the black one he'd gotten into this morning. He'd known
something was off when he'd cranked it up, but hadn't been able to place what.
Now he knew—the color wasn't right. He took a step toward the car, and a pair
of arms encircled his waist from behind.
"Come back to
me!" a soft, deep voice pleaded against his ear.
Matthew turned as
quickly as he could, but the light and the man had vanished. He closed his eyes
and leaned back against his once-again-black car, his heart hammering, his
throat thick with emotions he didn't understand. He'd recognized that voice the
moment he'd heard it, yet now he couldn't place it. Now his mind relegated it
to the hazy depths of forgotten things, like half-remembered tunes that went
like da-da-da-da-da-something...la-la...and nebulous gray snatches of faces
from childhood. But in that moment, he'd known, and he'd thrilled in it. The
voice had evoked a response from him so intense and swift, like suddenly
finding something he'd been missing for years in some random place he'd looked
a million times.
He wondered what the
speaker had meant. Come back to me. He looked around quickly, cleared his
throat, and straightened his clothes. Thankfully, no one else had
seen...whatever had just happened. He took a deep breath and headed back into
the office. So he was having visions of a different color car and hearing a
mysterious voice. That didn't make him crazy. At least, not if he kept it all
to himself.
He went back into the
building, to his office, and stopped in the doorway. Where was his Chinese
dragon? He distinctly remembered buying a print of a colorful Chinese dragon
and hanging it right there on the opposite wall. Right where anyone could see
it from the hallway. Or...had he? Matthew walked over to the wall. No picture
hanger. No hole. Had he dreamed the piece of art too?
