Celebrate the Launch of the New John Brown House Museum Bookstore with Sebastian Cole and RI Authors

PROVIDENCE, R.I. - June 17, 2013 - PRLog -- Please join award-winning author Sebastian Cole and fellow Association of Rhode Island Authors as the Rhode Island Historical Society celebrates the official launching of the John Brown House Museum bookstore, Thursday, June 20th, from 5:00 – 8:00 pm, 52 Power St, Providence, RI. Sebastian Cole will be signing his debut  novel, Sand Dollar: A Story of Undying Love.

Set in Rhode Island, Sand Dollar: A Story of Undying Love is an epic, heart-wrenching love story about the one who got away. It is best described as a romantic fantasy, kind of like The Notebook with a Sixth Sense twist. Similar to a Nicholas Sparks novel, but uniquely different, Sand Dollar is a thought-provoking, emotional read with real life situations that might even have you yelling at the main characters at times. A mixture of joy and heartache, this realistic portrayal of life is what sets Sand Dollar apart. And not only is it filled with plenty of twists and turns that will make it hard to put the book down, but the surprise ending will knock your socks off!

Born and raised in Rhode Island, Sebastian Cole joined his family's business after graduating from Brown University in the 80s. A true romantic, his life is defined by following his heart and pursuing his dreams, which is why he has become a novelist. Sebastian writes from the heart, believing in true love, love at first sight, and finding the one person in life you're meant to be with.

Sebastian's debut novel, Sand Dollar: A Story of Undying Love, reflects over forty years of personal life experience. It has won numerous awards, including being a winner in the Beverly Hills Book Awards, a finalist in the International Book Awards, a finalist in the ForeWord Firsts debut literary competition for first-time authors, and a current finalist for ForeWord Reviews Book Of The Year Award. With a rating of 4.6 stars on Amazon with over 90 reviews, the book has been getting rave reviews, many of which compare him to his favorite author, Nicholas Sparks. Whether or not Sebastian ever achieves that kind of success, touching the lives of others through his writing has been the single most gratifying thing he has ever done in his life.
