Unsettled Synopsis:
After a horrific breakup with her longtime boyfriend, Brooklyn Caldwell is completely disenchanted with the notion of mingling with the opposite sex. Damon Williams had been everything she thought she wanted…until he wasn’t.
In an attempt to escape her heartbreaking past, Brooklyn seeks refuge in bustling Washington, D.C. where she folds into the fast-paced society unnoticed…until she meets a young entrepreneur, Logan Colton.
Brooklyn is surprised to find that while she has been successful in keeping the opposite sex at bay, somehow she is defenseless against Logan’s confidence and charm—and it doesn’t hurt that he is absurdly beautiful.
As much as Logan didn’t plan on pursuing her, he is drawn to Brooklyn’s muted beauty and her witty persona. For all his success, Logan is ensnared in the coveted world of unequivocal wealth and power, but behind closed doors is taunted by his own demons and an undeniable need to atone for a monumental mistake.
As the two embark on a tumultuous obstacle course saturated with unknown twists and turns, Brooklyn is left to question whether she can endure the journey ahead.
Everything was falling into place. Even amongst all the chaos of Washington D.C., Brooklyn and Logan found each other.
Brooklyn never expected Logan...and as it always seems to happen with her...things fell apart. She has been through this before...was she strong enough to do it again?
On the outside, Logan was the epitome of wealth and confidence. Many knew his name but few knew his secrets. He never expected Brooklyn...but now she's walked away. He knew what they shared mattered to her...and she...she mattered to him more.

Describe your book in a tweet (140 characters or less)
•A heartbroken Brooklyn meets a young CEO, Logan Colton. The
two embark on an unknown journey with twists and turns. Brooklyn questions
whether she can endure the journey ahead.
What was your inspiration for your book?
•I decided to write Unsettled as a way to express some of my
internal thoughts. In life we all go through trying experiences and sometimes
they are hard to move past. In Brooklyn and Logan's case, they are both plagued
by secrets. In life every person has to be willing to take chances, and make
changes. If you can't do that, then what do you have? You're just left
Unsettled.
Did you always want to be an author?
•Yes and no. I always enjoyed using my creative propensity.
I found pleasure in writing short poems and things of that nature. For a while
I considered medical school, then law school, but for me, those professions
were more of a means to earn a substantial living. My father always told me to
choose a profession that I didn’t feel like would be “work.” I ended up doing
the opposite and pursued my Masters degree in Public Policy and Administration.
From that point I acquired a position within the government. Over the course of
the last few years, I found myself yearning for me. I would say that the day my
husband brought me the Kindle was the day that my life and outlook changed. I
started thinking back on my father’s words and what I found joy in. I’ve always
been an avid reader, and many close friends always told me that they thought I
wrote well. About a year ago, a tiny light bulb went off, propelling me to
pursue my creative passion for writing. Had it not been for the ever evolving
world of self-publishing, I am not sure that I would have ever seriously
pursued my dreams of becoming a published author.
Besides writing, what other interests/hobbies do you have?
•Aside from writing, I enjoy curling up with my e-reader and
absorbing myself in novels loaded with emotion, desire, and passion. I also
like to spend sunny, wistful afternoons, in my hammock thinking up new ideas
for great stories. I love to cook and create new recipes. I also enjoys
spending time with my loving family and friends and traveling.
