he withdrew a familiar gold coin from his pocket. She remembered all the fake ones she had dropped when she tried to get away from Carrick and her eyes swung back up to his.
“Where did you get that?”
His brow creased. “You know, I don’t really remember. I just kind of… found it.” He searched her eyes. “Kind of like magic.”
She smiled. She liked that answer. She hooked her arm with his and the two walked off the bridge and toward the noisy city that never quite managed to sleep. Neither of them noticed the short redheaded man in the boat in the middle of the lake, paddling past the bridge they had just exited. He held his hand over the water and just like a fish the gold ring floated toward the surface. He dried the bauble on his tattered red coat before placing it into the pocket of his old, black trousers.
With a grunt he rowed away.

About the Author
Ginger Voight is a screenwriter and bestselling author with over twenty published titles in fiction and nonfiction. She covers everything from travel to politics in nonfiction, as well as romance, paranormal, and dark, “ripped from the headlines” topics like Dirty Little Secrets.
Ginger discovered her love for writing in sixth grade, courtesy of a Halloween assignment. From then on, writing became a place of solace, reflection, and security. This was never more true than when she found herself homeless in L.A. at the age of nineteen. There, she wrote her first novel, longhand on notebook paper, while living out of her car.
In 1995, after she lost her nine-day-old son, she worked through her grief by writing the story that would eventually become The Fullerton Family Saga.
In 2011, she embarked on a new journey—to publish romance novels starring heroines who look more like the average American woman. These “Rubenesque” romances have developed a following thanks to her bestselling Groupie series. Other titles, such as the highly-rated New Adult series, Fierce, tap into the “reality-TV” preoccupation in American entertainment, which gives her contemporary stories a current, pop culture edge.
Known for writing gut-twisting angst, Ginger isn’t afraid to push the envelope with characters who are perfectly imperfect. Whether rich, poor, sweet, selfish, gay, straight, plus-size or svelte, her characters are beautifully flawed and three-dimensional. They populate her lavish fictional landscapes and teach us more about the real world in which we live simply through their interactions with each other. Ginger’s goal with every book is to give the reader a little bit more than they were expecting, told through stories they’ll never forget.
