Crimson Tree Publishing is excited to bring you A Light In The Dark, the latest book in the Fallout Series by Becky Doughty.
On stage, Tish Ransome sings about heartache and passion, betrayal, and about love gone wrong… but she knows very little about any of it in real life. The rockstar princess who swears like a pirate—literally—is loved and adored by family, friends, and fans alike, and her world is filled with good things, her future bright.
Behind the scenes, however, trouble is brewing. When Tom, her best friend and co-founder of the Marauders, tells her he's leaving the band after graduation, Tish must find a new wingman to step into Tom's hard-to-fill shoes. The moment she hears Sebastian Jeffries play, she knows he's the one.
Yet with Sebastian comes a taste of the things Tish only writes about, and she can't resist the lure of the tortured artist. Sebastian, likewise, is drawn to Tish's brilliance, but like a moth that hovers too close to the flames, is he killing himself just to be near her? Can Tish save Sebastian before it's too late, or will he pull her down into the darkness with him?
Excerpt:
I began to sing, low and quiet at first, taking my time warming up while enjoying the way our guitars merged into one sound. When I heard him searching for harmonies, I stepped up to a microphone and cranked my vocals up a little, nodding at him to do the same with the microphone I’d set up for him. Something happened. I couldn’t tell you what it was, I couldn’t even pinpoint the exact moment it did. But as we stood facing each other, eyes locked, his chords laying the foundation for my lead work, his voice filling out the empty places beneath mine, suddenly it was there, that magic between musicians who discover holy ground together. I felt tethered to him—no, anchored by him, all the while being pushed to new heights by him, by his driving rhythm, his pulsing heartbeat. Wait. That was my own heartbeat, throbbing inside me in time with his down-stroke. The man was playing me, through me, around me, making the music of my heart come to life in a way I’d never experienced before.
The song ended, fading into stillness, both of us hesitant to move, or speak, lest we dispel the magic still potent in the air between us. Then Sebastian’s eyes slowly lowered to my lips, and he took one small step toward me.
“Do you two want to lay that down? Sounded pretty amazing.” It was Tom. Headphones on, listening to us, watching us from the dimly lit mixing room.

All The Way To Heaven (Fallout Series Book One)
Anica Tomlin, business major, has just learned that the man she's been planning her future around, her Global Finance professor, already has a beautiful wife and family. Ani cashes in her graduation gift to herself a little early a trip to Tuscany but from the moment she boards the wrong train in Pisa, her plans for solitude and self-indulgence begin to unravel around her.
When a bicycle accident thrusts Ani into the skilled hands of the dashing Dr. Cosimo Lazzaro, she reluctantly accepts his invitation to recover in his family's country villa, perched on a hilltop surrounded by the Lazzaro olive groves. But it's been a black year for olive growers all over Italy, and generations of tradition are being put to the test like never before.
Ani is swept up in the drama of life in Tuscany, the convergence of old and new, and the passions that drive people to pursue the desires of their hearts. Just as Ani begins to get her feet under her again, an unexpected turn of events leaves her doubting the very existence of happily-ever-after, unless she can learn to trust the desires of her own heart.

About The Author:
Becky Doughty is the author of the award-winning Elderberry Croft
series and the voice behind BraveHeart Audiobooks. “I write fiction,
mainly because nonfiction is hard! Yes, I’ve tried. Let’s just say I
like to color outside the lines when it comes to sticking to facts…or
anything else, for that matter. I write Women’s Fiction with strong
elements of romance and Young Adult/New Adult Fiction. Some of my
fiction is written from a Christian worldview (and labeled as such), and
some of it is not. My stories, however, are all categorically “clean”
or “sweet” (light on language, violence, and sex), so if you’re looking
for a book you don’t have to shove under the couch cushion when visitors
stop by, you’ve come to the right place!”
