GISELLE was originally published in 2018. Since that time, I have reconsidered (along with several requests from readers) how this book should end.

After driving through the night, Cecily Mars is ready to get settled in her new town when she arrives, but first she needs to crash for a few hours. When she awakens, she decides to grab dinner at the local diner, and is met with rude comments about an obviously pregnant server. She’s curious as to why, and doesn’t feel it’s fair to judge, so she requests that server. She wasn’t expecting the remarks she heard regarding the sweet waitress, or for the locals to treat her so badly. But even Cecily has to admit, the story they claim the woman's telling about the baby’s father does seem a little…out there.
When Cecily returns the next night for dinner and learns that the pregnant waitress, Eva, has been let go, she feels sorry for the girl and comes up with a possible solution. She offers the woman a job at the store where she is working. Regardless of the rumors flying, Cecily wants to give the mother-to-be a chance.
Still, she wonders how Eva could be so adamant and sound so truthful? No one in town believes her, but Cecily wants to find out more. Eva’s story pulls at her heartstrings, as well as piques her curiosity. Whether it’s true or not, it's evident Eva will need help with the coming birth, and she could also use a friend.
It doesn’t take Eva long to make Cecily a believer.
Illustra is an out-of-this-world tale of love, kindness, compassion, acceptance, and rescue from a doomed planet.
Warning! Contains eating an apple—stem, seeds, core, and all—small town gossip, a harrowing rescue, and the consequences resulting from a simple act of compassion.

Born with special abilities, N8 and the rest of “the children” have lived underground their entire lives, where they’ve been led to believe there was a nuclear war that left the Earth’s surface uninhabitable.

When she reaches out, she’s welcomed with open arms, especially by one in particular.
K8
When K8 is approached
by a publisher to tell the Childrens’ story, she’s hesitant to trust the guy,

get back into it. Plus the extra money from book sales would definitely help.

Adam has been working with K8 at the diner for a while now, and his feelings
for her keep growing. He’s leery of the publisher, fearing the man is someone
looking to take advantage of the Childrens’ innocence, and he takes it upon
himself to protect K8. As he earns her trust, he’s hoping he'll also gain her
affection.

Jones seems to be lost, more than a little naïve, and maybe a bit crazy, but he’s the last one to judge. He feels protective of her, and he could use some of that Christmas magic himself.
Feelings are new to Jones, especially one in particular. And when she thinks she may lose Barrett for good, she must do what it takes to save him as he saved her.
Turns out, love may be the greatest magic of all.
Warning! Contains a broken candy cane, real cold and hunger, five rules, an aversion to peppermint, legal tender, a striped bowl, and one man finding Christmas magic with a woman who only has one name.
