Katia Stanislaus is a top insurance agent in Chicago, but her company is about to fold if she can't pull off a miracle. She convinces her boss to relocate to Indian Lake where she lived as a child and broke the heart of the one man whose account would be enough to save her job and her company. The only problem is that Austin McCreary has been a near recluse since the day Katia left him. Austin won't take her calls and appears set on revenge for the pain Katia has caused him. Just seeing Austin, catapaults Katia back to the time when she was 16 and so very much in love. But it was just a teenage crush, wasn't it?

Antique Cars
I have always been fascinated with old cars
and old coaches when I read about them in books. In Indian Lake (as well as my
hometown) is an antique car museum. I wanted my hero, Austin McCreary, to have
a long family history with cars. I devised a backstory of Austin’s great
grandfather who was a pioneer in the auto industry around WWI. All his life, Austin has believed that his
grandfather was a genius of a designer working in the Deusenberg plant in
Indianapolis before moving to Indian Lake. The family “secret” is revealed in
KATIA’S PROMISE, by Mrs. Beabots.
Austin has carried on his father’s work at
the family auto parts manufacturing plant and still trades his antique cars.
However, he has decided to build a car museum and then donate it to the city. I had so much fun researching the 1926 blue Bugatti convertible, Silver Cloud
Rolls Royce and the Maserati he might own. For me, sitting in an antique car is
one way of traveling back in time. The velvet upholstery that was used, the
silver bud vases in the back seat, the quilted chrome dashboards, reinforce to
me that these cars are literally like time machines.
