Greene brings to life one of her most compelling characters: the sensitive,
eccentric, bass guitarist, Greg Van de Meer. A Fall of Light weaves together
the strands of Greg’s private and public lives—a shattering personal history, a
love affair with potentially disastrous consequences, and family bonds that are
stretched to their breaking point.
It’s
been fifteen years since Greg was outed by his fundamentalist father at age
sixteen and sent from home, with devastating consequences for both he and his
younger brother, Asher. Now unlaid ghosts from the past are stirring. With his
band’s success on the world stage, Greg’s life takes a complicated turn when he
develops a friendship with Louis Angel, an ex-Marine with a secret of his own,
and finds himself facing familiar threats from an unexpected source.
Strained
loyalties, a private affair, and Greg’s own guarded history collide dangerously
until a visit from an old foe forces him to confront past wounds and present
beliefs. Allegiances are called into question and he must decide whether the
secrets he’s fighting to protect are worth the life he’s finally ready to have.

Excerpt One:
Greg looked
down at his hands and realized they were clenched into fists, his fingernails
digging viciously into the flesh of his palms. “No,” he whispered to himself,
and opened them, exposing the angry moon-shaped marks. “No.”
He took his
phone from his pocket, opened up his texts, and looked at the photo again. He
remembered it all; remembered the joy of opening his eyes and seeing Louis
standing there, the shock of being pulled against his firm body, and the warm
mocha taste of his mouth. He remembered the absolute, utter relief of it. The
rightness, now made wrong.
He set the
phone down, bracing himself on the counter’s edge, his head hung low. He was
just now realizing exactly the magnitude of the gift Louis had given him. He
had been the only one in the world who knew Louis’s secret—the only one—and
suddenly he felt the weight of that trust heavy and warm in his heart. And then
it turned cold.
Rage and sorrow
battled for mastery in his gut. This was
his fault, he told himself. It was Louis’s association with him that put Louis
in this situation; it was his recklessness that had brought the wolves to his
door.
But if they
thought for a moment that Greg would bow easily to intimidation . . . He realized
he was clenching his fists again, and opened them. “You are grossly mistaken,”
he said softly, to the rain.

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
LJ
Greene is a self-professed obsessive multi-tasker who writes boring stuff by
day and lets her inner romantic fly by night.
This California native is married to the most amazing man and has two
beautiful children, now old enough to read her books but still not interested
because of the ew, gross factor. She’s an avid reader of all genres with an
embarrassingly large ebook collection, and a weird penchant for reading the
acknowledgements at the end of a novel.
She’s also a music lover with no apparent musical talent, a travel
enthusiast, and a cheese connoisseur.
