MAITLAND, FL— Within the pages of Misty Ballantyne’s new book, Fragile Moments, ($15.99, paperback, 9781498439275; $7.99, e-book, 9781498439282) readers meet Sebastian Petersen, a wealthy international business prodigy and known playboy who’s jet setting lifestyle was legendary. Enter Maggie Willis a feisty small town girl that captures his imagination and eventually his affection. Although Sebastian is drawn to her, he feels their lifestyles are so different, that he has a difficult time envisioning them together in a long-term relationship. That is until a series of events places Maggie in his path causing him to undeniably question his life, his choices, and his future. Their journey is one of laughter, love, pain, loss and self-discovery, but in the end can love prevail against all the odds stacked against them?

“I am trying to give teens, young women, and older alike, an alternative to the crush of trash that is being pushed onto us as suitable reading material by today's culture,” states the author. “That you can depict love in a way that is emotionally stirring yet not highly sexual, since people do and can wait for the right person to love and share the intimate side of their life with, without being preachy.”

Misty Ballantyne is married and the mother of three children, all adopted from China. She has lived in the Upstate of South Carolina for the last 25 years. A self-proclaimed people person, she has spent her career, serving people in various customer service industries. With a lifelong passion for writing, she finally decided to get serious about her writing and after prayerful consideration penned Faith, Love and Forgiveness. Fragile Moments is the sequel to that first story. Most of the lessons or life stories weaved in through her stories are borne out of her personal journey, experiences and imagination.

Xulon Press, a division of Salem Communications, is the world’s largest Christian self-publisher, with more than 12,000 titles published to date. Retailers may order Fragile Moments through Ingram Book Company and/or Spring Arbor Book Distributors. The book is available online through xulonpress.com/bookstore, amazon.com, and barnesandnoble.com.
