A love story that traverses time and space...

Ever since he was young, Kaleb knew he was a bit different. As a young empath, he couldn't understand why he felt things more deeply than his peers. He always found himself longing for something or someone.

Now, as an introverted adult, he lives his life committed to being a bachelor and just trying to survive his boring office job. Everything begins to change when he starts to experience déjà vu and other mysterious things that are a little hard for him to explain. His dreams, which always told him stories of wonder, are now beginning to feel less like dreams and more like out-of-body experiences. As his days and nights start to spin out of control, he starts to question if there is more to this life than he can see and feel.

On the day he meets Penny, it is truly love at first sight, and for the moment, things begin looking up…but then tragedy strikes.

As a child of a British mother and an American father, Penny spent a lot of time traveling from country to country. Her family was everything to her. On a dark, stormy night, an unspeakable tragedy occurs that changes her life forever. When all other methods of coping fail, Penny isolates herself from the world in an attempt to escape her tragic past. When she begins to experience unexplainable things, her tenacious, strong-willed half-sister, Josie, travels from England to help her confront her past in an effort to help her realize that she is special beyond her wildest dreams, and can no longer hide herself from the world.

But will she realize it in time to help Kaleb?

Someday Autumn Will End, the first book in the Soul Remembrance Trilogy, is a heartwarming story of friendship, courage, and perseverance told in four parts.

The Story Continues….

Their perfect escape held a secret they never expected…

Happily ever after? Cliché alert! No true love survives without its fair share of trials and tribulations. But for Kaleb and Penny, they thought those were all behind them.

After overcoming the impossible, they are finally looking forward to enjoying time together outside of the surreal landscapes of the dreamworld, the place their love was born.

Now facing the harsh realities of day-to-day life, the nightly allure of the dreamworld remains a much-needed escape to a place where they can do whatever they want.

But if they've learned anything from the past, it's that things in the dreamworld aren't always what they seem, and their nightly escapades are revealing a dark and sinister truth.

As secrets begin to unravel, they realize that escaping to the dream world, can't help them escape the very real problems of the real world, and that their greatest challenge might not be escaping nightmares, but facing the very real dangers that threaten to tear them apart.

What dark secrets are lurking in the shadows of their dreamworld escape?

Beyond the Dead of Winter, the second book in the Soul Remembrance Trilogy, is a magical story of love, loss, family and the courage to overcome darkness.

Meet the author

DSC09204.jpg

Jared A. Perrin Sr. is a first-time author whose deep love of music, movies, video games, books, and fascination with dreams, inspire his writing. He was born and raised in Cleveland Heights, Ohio and currently lives in Northeast Ohio where he enjoys being out in nature as he reads, writes, explores new music, daydreams, and continues his love-hate relationship with commas.

He has had a love for music since he was a child. If he wasn’t listening to records with his sister or brother, he was listening to cassette tapes in his room, creating movie-like scenarios in his head to each song.

Although he always told stories, it was only recently that he decided to put “pen to paper.” It has been a great journey, and he is excitedly looking forward to growing as a writer.

I've heard it said that music was the language of the soul, and I believe that. It has the power to touch people in so many ways. In this book, I used music to take my mind to all sorts of different places in order to create the story I wanted to tell. We all know that no movie is complete without a soundtrack. I believe that no book should be without one either. It's those movie moments where a subtle song plays in the background, setting the scene just right, that elicits the perfect emotional response.

Below, you will find the music playlist that contributed to the writing of some of the chapters or appeared in the chapter to set the scene. If you are interested, continue to the the more detailed soundtrack pages to see how and where each song integrated with the story. Please be aware that if you haven’t read the book yet, there may be small spoilers. Enjoy!
