A Novelist's Fanciful Obsession with a Dark-Eyed Knight Becomes Reality in BEFORE I WAKE, a Historical Time-Travel Romance by Mary Ellen Johnson 13th Century England, Tintagel Castle Historical novelist Magdalena Moore is haunted by the black-haired, black-eyed knight she first encountered during a past life regression. Across a lifetime, Magdalena searches for the truth about Ranulf Navarre and Jane Dreigh. At Tintagel Castle, Magdalena is miraculously transported to thirteenth-century England, where she is Lady Jane, and Lord Navarre is her husband. But Ranulf is not the man of her imagination. Why is Ranulf so cold and Janey so erratic? What secrets are they hiding? When England plunges into civil war, Ranulf backs the wrong side. Knowing he is destined to die in battle, Magdalena tries desperately to cheat fate, save Ranulf, and finally find happiness. But secrets can ruin everything, and Magdelena's secret is too fantastical to be believed. Publisher's Note: Readers passionate about history will appreciate the author's penchant for detail and accuracy. In keeping with the era, this story contains scenes of brutality which are true to the time and man's timeless inhumanity. There are a limited number of sexual scenes with some vulgarity characteristic of the time. From the Author: I like to think BEFORE I WAKE is the life I might have lived-had I made a lot of unfortunate relationship choices and been transported back to thirteenth century Cornwall. The kernel of my tale is true. As a young wife and mother, I did undergo a past life regression, which I detail pretty much as it happened in BEFORE I WAKE. While I'd always been drawn to medieval England and had already started working on what would become my first historical romance, The Lion and the Leopard, that particular regression-whether real or simply a manifestation of my imagination-has stayed with me.

Autorenporträt
On my first visit to Ireland, I visited Malahide Castle near Dublin. I was captivated by its stunning grounds and interior and its fascinating history, which often aligned with the fate of Ireland itself. Once I learned of its ghosts, I knew Malahide Castle, now the fictional "Castle by the Sea," would provide the perfect setting for my second time travel novel, "Eternal Beloved." "Before I Wake" is the first novel in my four-book time travel series, "Travels Across Time." "Before I Wake" deals with a pair of star-crossed lovers reuniting and fighting in thirteenth-century Cornwall during the time of Simon de Montfort's rebellion against England's king. I am the author of the six-book "Knights of England" historical romance series, plus "The Landlord's Black-Eyed Daughter," based on the Alfred Noyes poem "The Highwayman," which was published under the pseudonym Mary Ellen Dennis. Upon completion of "Eternal Beloved," I will say goodbye to my beloved Middle Ages and turn my "Travels Across Time" attention first to the Colorado Labor Wars and, finally, to a haunted roadhouse on Colorado's eastern plains that may bear a close resemblance to a tavern owned by my grandfather. When not writing, I enjoy time with my children and grandchildren and with Karma the Wonder Dog, my German Shepherd, who helped me survive COVID-19 and numerous other adventures.
