Curiosity can be a dangerous thing...
Young Adult Fantasy/Romance/Adventure
Quinn Robbins has never noticed William Rose at Bristlecone High School - not until the night she almost runs him down in her car.
After that, she never stops noticing him. Because William is different than
the other boys... Why does a high school senior always have his nose buried in medical journals? Why doesn't he have any friends?
And how does he keep disappearing down by the river every Friday night?
When William starts to show up in her dreams, she is unsure if her curiosity has turned into obsession - or if there is something more mysterious going on.
Unable to rest, Quinn follows William to the river one Friday night ... and discovers something startling - something she thought could only exist in a fairy tale.
Uh oh, Quinn. 1st Period History will never be the same!
Breeana Puttroff has loved making up stories since she could talk. For many years, her biggest audience for those stories was the fantastic students she had the privilege of teaching.
One summer afternoon, while she was picnicking in the beautiful mountains of her Colorado home with her little girl, she saw an old, broken stone bridge, and she just knew there was a story inside. Six months later, the Dusk Gate Chronicles was born.
These days, she runs a small business and writes from home while planning math lessons, digging caterpillars out of garbage disposals (oops!), discovering how to make new colors out of crayons melted in the dryer, and drinking lots of coffee (and occasionally tea).
She loves it when readers connect with her on Facebook or Twitter, especially if they have new recipes for disastrously good times with kids.
Breeana holds a B.A. in English from the University of Northern Colorado, and an M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction and Literacy from Lesley University in Cambridge, MA.Seeds of Discovery (Dusk Gate Chronicles - Book One)

Buji and Me: 7 Lessons from the Dog Who Rescued Me
by Wendy Kelly
Drawn from Wendy Kelly’s real-life journey with a rescue dog and her experiences as an animal behaviorist, this handbook identifies basic pet attitudes that can help their human companions lead fulfilled and meaningful lives. By illustrating how to be here now and be full of intention to travel light and be one in love, this guide reveals how humans have more to learn from their pets than humans can ever teach them. Pets are some of the best teachers of how to be in the moment and open to endless possibilities, to be true to thoughts and feelings, to travel without excess baggage, and to embrace the universal love that connects everyone in the “pack.” In addition, Wendy shares her very personal experience with her dog Buji, a bull terrier she rescued from euthanization who ultimately twice saved Wendy from what would have been a deadly cancer.

Nobody at Bristlecone High School has ever paid attention to William Rose. Since the day he arrived in the small, mountain town years ago, he’s blended into the background.
Quinn Robbins never noticed William at all, until the icy Friday night he suddenly appeared directly in the path of her car, and just as suddenly vanished. After that, she found herself noticing him constantly, seeing for the first time just how different he was.
First were the books he always had his nose buried in. Why would a senior in high school always be reading medical journals? Then there were his habitual appearances down by the river every Friday night, just like the night she almost hit him – not to mention his odd habit of disappearing there, with no place and no reason to hide!
Overtaken by a sense of curiosity that she just can’t seem to shake, Quinn finds herself trying to figure out exactly what is going on with him. When he starts to show up in her dreams, she can’t decide if her curiosity has become too much of an obsession … or if there is something … more.
Finally it becomes clear that the answers she seeks might only come from finding out what is happening at the river. But on the night Quinn decides to follow him, her very new mystery draws her fatefully to a very old mystery. To a discovery she thought could only exist in a fairy tale.
Uh oh, Quinn. 1st Period History will never be the same!
In the Dusk Gate Chronicles, you’ll meet characters who find their way straight into your heart, on a journey you’ll long to join. Join readers everywhere as you fall in love with the Dusk Gate Chronicles.

This was a great story from beginning to end. – I_love_my_books!! | 4 reviewers made a similar statement
Seeds of Discovery is an amazing YA Novel that instantly drags you in with the mystery and suspense elements right from the beginning. I have yet to find a more artfully written novel that combines mystery with fantasy in my years of reading. — Just Another Rabid Reader Reviews
Seeds of Discovery had my complete and undivided attention from the beginning until the end. The book may not have witches and vampires, but there was magic, not your typical magic as in spells and potions, but magic of a completely different kind… magic of love and friendship. — Paperbook Princess Reviews
The book was a fun and quick read and when I finished I only wanted more. More of Quinn, more of Zander, more of Thomas…oh how I love Thomas, more of William, more of everyone. Thank goodness Roots of Insight releases January 9, 2012. — Better Read than Dead Reviews
