April 5, 2011 - PRLog -- Here is what one reader had to say, “Hi Kathleen – I just finished the book today and wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed it.  I was nervous about reading it as I recently lost my husband to cancer.  But, since it had to do with sailing (we had a 26ft MacGregor) I thought I would give it a shot.  Anyway, the letter at the end made me feel like (my husband) was talking to me and I want to thank you for that.  It meant the world to me.” – Cathy, Long Island, New York.

We are all affected by loss.  Whether that of a loved one, a relationship or even the parting of something we hold dear.  And, each loss affects us differently. There is quite a bit of loss in A Return to Innocence beginning with the main character, Billy McMillon, losing his mom to cancer when he’s only eight years old.  However, it is his childhood experiences on a sailing expedition with his grandfather that impact him the most and the effects of these childhood experiences haunt him through his adulthood.  Hardened and calloused he finds himself emotionally disconnected both as a parent and husband. But, it is when his eight-year-old daughter finds a small, forgotten box and encourages Bill to open it that their lives are changed forever.

But that’s not all this story is about. Here is what another reader (Amazon.com) had to say about their experience with A Return to Innocence - “Kathleen Beales has crafted a wonderful, original novel that takes the reader on many journeys- journeys of adventure, journeys of imagination, journeys of love, and journeys of self-exploration. It is filled with many likable characters that crackle with life- I felt as though I were right there with them throughout the book. Through all of the journeys in the book, we encounter some surprising twists and some important life questions that cause us all to stop and ponder long after we have finished the book. This is truly a satisfying, great read.”
