Amy dreads her white-knuckled commute. A new massage therapist at the Hotel Del Coronado, Amy Cantrell is thrilled to work at the luxurious resort, knowing it could open the right doors for her future as a physical therapist. There’s only one problem. The easiest way to get to the Del is over Coronado Bridge, and Amy is terrified of bridges. Josh Murphy is a Navy SEAL—and he’s not afraid of anything. When he finds Amy cowering on a bus seat praying her way across Coronado Bridge, his attempts to make light of the situation only make matters worse. Amy despises him, but Josh can’t understand why Amy is so afraid of an inanimate object. Despite reservations about getting involved because of his job, Josh sets out to help Amy overcome her fear. . .then confronts a surprising fear of his own.

Re: Bridging Two Hearts

Oh boy... what an interesting time you had...

I loved reading your post, Michelle! What a journey. I had to laugh at the first question you were always asked: Where did you get my number? LOL And now to be stalked...er...'followed' on twitter. :D

What a wonderful journey that you have. I love the fact that you use real life experience for your book. Looking forward to reading it.

What a way to find information. Though the journey, I'm
sure will make the book that much better to read.

Hmmm....life imitating art? Actually I finally authors
research stories fascinating. I'm a school librarian and I
teach research skills to children who think it dull, so when I
can find a great back story about a book, it's fun to share.
Not every story I come across is appropriate for the
elementary crowd, but I have gotten hooked on back stories!

I wonder if your new follower is planning to read your book?

I can understand their sense of secrecy, but because you
weren't delving into operational information, and gave them
a valid reason as to why you wanted to ask a few questions
about them, without delving too deep, I don't know why they
felt the need to pass the buck!! I'm sure even the Woman
recruiter could have given you the information that you
needed!! Now that you are a target of sorts, I hope that
all of them purchase your book!! lol I know that I will
have it on my TBR list, since a book like this will keep the
blood flowing, and help keep me warm in this colder
weather!! Of course, I'll still have to keep a mug of hot
chocolate nearby, along with one of my 2 cats!!
Congratulations on your book, and Thank you for going the
extra mile for going through what you did to be absolutely
accurate for your book!! Please thank your Husband for his
service as well!!

LOL. Had to laugh at all the round around you were getting.
Thats nothing new in the military. I do understand there are
things that cannot be discussed but goodness gracious, can it
be even harder? Wait, its the military, it can. I look forward
to reading.
(
Suzy F. 9:09pm October 4, 2014)

I love the premise for your story! I can imagine no one in
the military wanting to share information. I am just
surprised that they even passed you to the next person!

"Skulduggery" is such a great word. Fun post.

I can totally understand where the Navy seal is coming from, that mindset must be a tough one to penetrate!
(
Courtney Haas 11:44am October 5, 2014)

What a great title! My mom has always been afraid of bridges,
something about one opening up when she's on it!
(
Maria Proctor 3:49pm October 5, 2014)

Sounds like a great book. I really like the cover and the
title.
(
Denise Austin 5:25pm October 5, 2014)

sounds like a really good book!

Alison Mckearney 11:46pm October 5, 2014)

Thanks for all your comments.

The fear of bridges IS a big deal for many people. Even I
get uneasy about crossing a bridge and I regularly cross the
Golden Gate Bridge (will be going over it this morning).

Fortunately,gephyrophobia is treatable. A Navy wife friend
many years ago was successfully treated and has no problem
now. While the writing the book, I discovered a local
organization in San Diego is contracted by the Navy to help
soldiers and sailors deal with PTSD and other phobias that
crop up, using the technology described in Bridging Two
Hearts.

When I called to interview them, they had an entire program
already set up to deal with the Coronado Bridge. Happy
reading!

As a army brat I totally understand "need to known" but what a great
story on research!
