At age 25, the once Princeton University wonder boy, James O. Woodward was a successful stockbroker, very wealthy, extremely handsome, well-dressed and sought after bachelor in New York City. James, who was raised by his Archeology Professor Aunt and Uncle, had everything that he dreamed of with one exception, a life partner whom he could trust and love unconditionally. Maggie I. Richardson, a self confessed plain looking legal assistant was working in a New York law firm where she was a subject of bullying by three of her attractive female colleagues for being a loner from Wisconsin. By chance James and Maggie met in a bar, where her colleagues took her for their amusement. James and Maggie made a slow, but successful progress in their relationship when they discovered a common interest, the love of ancient Egyptian history. James discovers that Maggie had a brother, by the name of Seth; however, she refused to talk further about him, when James inquired about her family. Unexpected events, one after another took James and Maggie to Cairo, Egypt where they encounter strange events on the Island of Agilika, events that could change the path of their lives forever. But first, they must survive the mysterious Island of O, as Osiris, an island that is nowhere to be find on any maps.
In this third sequel of The Chava Diamond Chronicles: A Song to Remember, Chava receives an invitation from her niece who resides in Mexico, for Juliet's fifteenth birthday party, her quinceañera. After Chava's best friend and literary agent, Angela, agrees to join her, she accepts the invitation. Once they arrive, surprises are waiting not only at her ex-in-laws' home but also at a local establishment where Chava develops strong feelings for a mariachi singer while he sang "Malaguena Salerosa." Juliet's father, Arturo, who is in charge of the Federales investigating a drug cartel that moved into the area, warns Chava to be careful. At her party, Juliet meets a boy named Romero and she falls in love with the boy from the other side of the tracks. Chava and Arturo fear that another Shakespearean tragedy is in the making, like Romeo and Juliet, and they do everything to prevent that from happening. While Arturo's compound is under attack by the cartel, it is up to Chava to come up with an idea to get the young lovers to safety without causing any harm to them. Chava learns that not everything is as it may seem. A lesson that questions her own humanity and trust in another man that she thought she was in love with, as he was most certainly not someone that he appeared to be. Chava and Angela prayed very hard that the lesson they learned would last for a lifetime, a lot longer than they were facing in the hands of strangers.
Charlotte (Lotte) Coleman never thinks much about religion or faith in God, yet she hopes for a great future. She believes that she does not need to pray for things that she can accomplish herself. Her outlook dramatically changes when a car accident sends her and her fiancé, Craig, to the hospital. While Craig quickly recovers, Lotte’s injuries are devastating and leave her unable to see. Craig does the unthinkable and leaves Lotte to face her future without him. During Lotte’s second hospitalization, she receives a visit from a priest, Father Gabriel, who tells her that she must regain hope and faith in God to succeed in life. Upon his suggestion, Lotte and her family depart on a pilgrimage to Fátima, Portugal. There, while Lotte crawls toward the shrine on her elbows and hands, a man talks to her about his own pilgrimage and prays with her for miracles that he believes could happen. Lotte becomes a believer in God and resigns to her faith, but miracles begin to happen when they land in Geneva to wait for a transfer flight. A doctor from the Geneva Casablanca Institute approaches Lotte with an offer that was too hard to refuse. Lotte believes that it is the beginning of what the strange man and what Father Gabriel were talking about, so she agrees. In Gstaad, Switzerland, she falls in love with two men, Roman, a man in his early sixties, and his right-hand man, Carlos, about Lotte’s age. Once again, Lotte arrives at a crossroad in her life and she must choose carefully and wisely. Lotte is only certain of one thing, her unshakeable faith in God, and she hopes that she has chosen the right man to live with for the rest of her life.
