Aimee Alexander is the pen name of traditionally published author, Denise Deegan. Pause to Rewind was originally published as Time in a Bottle, a bestseller in Ireland, Germany and Holland. What the critics have to say:'entwines the threads of mystery, plot and character into a compelling yarn that charms and chills - but always captivates.' EVENING HERALD 'a moving story of a mother's love and a woman's personal development.' IMAGE 'the author fizzes through the pages, bringing out the positive in tragic events and manages to inject humour and pace, as well as empathy, into a harrowing topic.' IRISH INDEPENDENT 'could only have been written by a woman who loves children and their ways because the dialogue so authentically captures the child's voice and personality.' EVENING HERALD. 'Given that this is a cancer journey and the sufferer is a wonderful, energetic little four-year-old boy then this could be a tough read. But the skill of the author brings us along this path with skill, compassion, knowledge and a gritty sense of humour as Jenny, the single mother of Charlie, slowly comes to terms with her son's diagnosis. We get to know and love Charlie. The writing is direct and very much on the pulse - the medical information is delivered skillfully without slowing the story which also highlights Jenny's past and the consequences of a night she's never been able to forget. As Charlie struggles through his illness, his cocky sense of humour never falters. The dialogue is authentic; you can hear his voice in your head as you read. In these most difficult of circumstances can romance raise its head and dare to hope? Can lost relationships be repaired, regained? Read Pause to Rewind and travel that journey with Charlie. You will not be disappointed. Highly recommended.' AUTHOR, LAURA ELLIOT 'Five Stars.' AUTHOR CLARE DOWLING'Once I started this book, I knew I wouldn't stop until I finished it. It's been a while since I read a book that drew me in straight away and held me there until the end. The book is beautifully written with wonderfully drawn characters and realistic dialogue that flows wonderfully. The author deals with some very big issues and does so with compassion, honesty and attention to detail. A mother's love is central to the story and I don't mind saying there were tears! But there's also humor mixed with the sadness which in my opinion makes the book such an accomplished and enjoyable read. One of my favourite books of the year.' AUTHOR, MARIA DUFFY 'With crisp, gorgeous writing, this is an incredible story about hope and a mother’s love. I cried but also laughed - a lot. The book is set in Dublin’s Glenageary but it wasn’t just the area that kept reminding me of Maeve Binchy. Alexander clearly loves people-watching; she has them down to a tee. And her dialogue is the best I've ever read. Watch this space. AUTHOR, NIAMH O'CONNOR 'This was an exceptionally well-written story.

    But I have dreams. I want to move to the city and be a princess, pampered by some romantic prince. I ache so deeply to get out of this town that I can taste freedom on my lips. And if I’m going to escape, I don’t want any entanglements. So, this thing with Bryce Winters? It’s just friends with benefits. A convenience. But that convenience turns into something else when Wilder Pyre comes to town, turning everything on its ear when he purchases the Winters Sawmill and Paper Company, the biggest employer in town. My employer. Why would this man, a self-made billionaire, want a sawmill in a small town? And how, for crying out loud, could he be a friend of Bryce’s? Bryce, whose great-great grandfather founded the mill generations ago? It’s a mystery I’m in the perfect position to unravel. But will it be my heart that unravel instead? Part Two: Clan Wars Cash Metcalf met the love of his life in high school, but social hierarchies being what they are at that tender age made it impossible for him to act on his feelings. A few years later, the timing was off again as he was headed off to the military and she was going off to college. They did, however, share one night together and he thought they were finally on the same page. But when she failed to send him letters at bootcamp, he imagined he was wrong, that she didn’t feel the same about him. Harper Root was a nerd in high school, the kind of girl boys only paid attention to when they needed help on their homework. She thought Cash was one exception, but when he romanced her and then disappeared, not answering her letters, she realized he was just like the others, just more callus about it. So, Harper accepted that she would have to raise her baby boy alone without the father Cash should have been. Five years after he left home, Cash comes back a hero. He served proudly in the Marines and then began his own security firm after inheriting a huge windfall from a fellow soldier. The moment he steps off the plane, Cash’s only thoughts are of Harper, but when he hears she has a kid, he knows his dreams of rekindling their romance are dead before they began. But the danger that brought him home, bears from another clan, forces Harper and Cash back together as they battle a mutual enemy. Part Three: True Intentions Wilder Pyre came to Winters Cove to give back to the community his mother came from. He told everyone that he’d bought the mill to make their lives better, but this tight knit community struggled to believe this stranger. But it wasn’t the community Wilder really had to convince, it was Staci Asola, a beautiful employee of the mill who’d made it her mission to prove Wilder had dark intentions. How could he convince her that his intentions were pure without exposing her to the dark underworld that was a much bigger part of this than he wanted to admit? Staci Asola couldn’t believe Wilder’s intentions were pure because she knew where he came from. Wilder Pyre came from the same rival clan of bears that had come to Winters Cove and attacked her friends, leaving one with a bullet wound in her abdomen. She knew because she was part of that same clan. It was a fact that Wilder’s biological father had murdered Staci’s parents, and it was also a fact that the same man wanted to destroy Winters Cove. But where did Wilder’s loyalties really lie? Had he bought the mill to appease his psychotic father, or was he honest in his insistence that all he wanted was to give back?

    He's lost and he thinks leaving her and all of Oregon in his rear-view is what he needs to find himself, dragging her heart right along with him as he goes. Blindsided and devastated by the loss, Harper's life crumbles around her, but she's not the only one rocked by the news of Liam's departure. Austin Hayward, Liam's best friend and her long-time admirer, handles it about as well as Harper—not well at all. He is the only other person who understands the abandonment and helplessness she feels, and she finds comfort in their common sorrow and, unexpectedly, in his arms. It's where he's always wanted her and where neither of them predicted she would end up. But is it where she'll stay? Is a new spark enough, when compared to an old flame, like the one Austin can see still flickering in her eyes? Toward the end of a downward spiral lie the answers. What You Leave Behind is a story of anxious hearts, the deceitful self, and what it means to be lost and found again.
