Sundays on Squire's Isle (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

This is Squire's Isle, Washington. A small, mostly unremarkable island in the Pacific Northwest where same-sex couples don't have to face secrecy or discrimination and are allowed to be together openly. "Sundays on Squire's Isle" focuses on the most prominent couples on the island for one day each month, providing a snapshot of the island over the course of a year. * Nadine Butler and Miranda Powell, the disc jockey who started the equality revolution with a very public and inadvertent outing and the manager of her radio station. * Kate Price and Amy Wellis, a reporter and the owner of the island's most popular coffeeshop, whose relationship with Nicole Bronwyn will grow into something much more special over the course of the year. * Molly Page and Shane Sanborn, chefs at the island's favorite eatery, who may decide to take their relationship to the next level. * Alex Crawford and Rachel Tom, a firefighter and a doctor who moved to the island after a harrowing ordeal and found peace in a slower pace of life. * Jill and Patricia Hood-Colby, the fifth-grade teacher and her wife, who embarks on a possibly foolish campaign to unseat a legacy and become the island's first openly-gay mayor while dealing with the blooming of their son's first romance. By the end of the year, lives will be changed and romances will evolve, and the citizens of Squire's Isle will discover that sometimes big changes don't happen with fanfare. Sometimes lives can be changed during the course of a quiet Sunday afternoon.

Autor

Geonn Cannon was born in a barn and raised to know better than that. He was born and raised in Oklahoma where he's been enslaved by a series of cats, dogs, two birds and one unexpected turtle. He's spent his entire life creating stories but only became serious about it when he realized it was a talent that could impress girls. Learning to write well was easier than learning to juggle, so a career was underway. His high school years were spent writing stories among a small group of friends and reading whatever books he could get his hands on.

Geonn was inspired to create the fictional Squire's Isle after a 2004 trip to San Juan Island in Washington State. His first novel set on the island, On the Air, was written almost as a side project to another story he wanted to tell. Reception to the story was so strong that the original story was put on the back burner to deal with the world created in On the Air. His second novel set in the same universe, Gemini, was also very well received and went on to win the Golden Crown Literary Society Award for Best Novel, Dramatic/General Fiction. Geonn was the first male author to receive the honor.

While some of his novels haven't focused as heavily on Squire's Isle, the vast majority of Geonn's works take place in the same universe and have connections back to the island and its cast of characters (the exception being the Riley Parra series). In addition to writing more novels based on the inhabitants of Squire's Isle, Geonn hopes to one day move to the real-life equivalent to inspire further stories.

Geonn is currently working on a tie-in novel to the television series Stargate SG-1, and a script for a webseries version of Riley Parra.
