RealTime Publishing author, Shirley A. Roe, a finalist in the 2009 Indie Excellence Awards for her historical fiction novel “The Whittaker Family Reunion”.
“Shirley introduced us to the Whittaker family in Of Dreams and Nightmares” states Richard O’Brien, founder of RealTime Publishing. “Of Dreams and Nightmares was the winner of the UK Blether Gold Award. The second book in the series, ‘The Whittaker Family Reunion’ takes readers back to 1881 where the family is reunited once again. Fans of Roe’s claim her characters are so real, they become family and friends in their minds. Readers feel their pain, their fear and their happiness. Roe’s books are written to appeal to young adults as well as older readers. Christian readers appreciate the references to the family’s never ending faith in God and each other. Well received by readers of romance, adventure and mystery as well as historical fiction.”
