Imagine doing Past Life Regression (PLR) for the first time and emerging with a crazy book idea! Vera Bell  is the author of the time-travel romantic suspense  trilogy Always & Forever, set in sixteenth-century Ireland  and present-day United States. Book One, Through  the Veneer of Time, is her debut novel, and that was  exactly how she came to write it. But while her PLR  session was a vivid, impassioned encounter, bursting with  colors, sounds, smells, textures, and a bizarrely visceral  knowledge, it was incomplete. Yet, despite trying to go  back, she never could. So she wrote the continuation in  her head until it became so extensive and detailed, she  had to put it on paper. 

Besides being a writer, Vera Bell lives in East  Cobb and is a wife to her high-school sweetheart, a  mother to two teenagers and one fur baby, a former  commercial artist and boutique owner, and a member  of the Historical Novel Society, Women’s Fiction Writers  Association, and Romance Writers of America. Her  favorite place to write is on her porch, overlooking  a pond lined with river birches and magnolias. The  topics she never tires of are Ireland, past lives, and  love that transcends time and space. Visit her at  VeraBellAuthor.com.
