WHISPERS THROUGH TIME, by Rosetta Diane Hoessli

A bad case of writers’ block was the least of author Sierra Masters’ problems when a man
from her past suddenly showed up with shocking information. After Hunter Davenport—once
the love of her life—revealed a Masters family secret, Sierra then questioned every aspect of her life and how to go forward knowing the truth of her past.

WHISPERS THROUGH TIME, the remarkable debut novel of author Rosetta Diane Hoessli, is
nothing short of an epic masterpiece. The author has woven a heart-wrenching tale of good
versus evil that unflinchingly bares open the despicable treatment of Native Americans by white people. Hoessli paints a vivid picture so detailed that readers can hear the cries of the dying, smell the acrid odor of death, and feel the ground tremble as a herd of bison roams the sacred land.

The story moves at a heart-pounding pace with a whiplash of a rollercoaster ride of
emotions through an intricate plot. The cast of flawed, but believable characters drive a
complicated story that grabs readers by the throat and never lets go. Readers find themselves
rooting for the protagonists from the beginning to the end of the tale. Hoessli creates enough
conflict with a backstory to keep readers turning the pages to see how it turns out.

Hoessli has written a cleverly plotted tale that deftly weaves ribbons of fantasy into a taut
plot driven by betrayal, love, loss, trust, family ties, and the inner strength one must summon to face adversity created by both human fallibility and fate and meet one’s challenges head-on rather than looking away. Part romance, part historical thriller, part mystery, part paranormal fantasy, part redemption with a second chance at life and love, WHISPERS THROUGH TIME will capture the imagination of readers who enjoy a love story fueled by a mix of fantasy and reality and believe that things are not always what they appear to be.

WHISPERS THROUGH TIME has more than earned the five stars this reviewer has awarded it.

TIP THE PIANO MAN, By Rosetta Diane Hoessli

There are stories that entertain, and then there are stories that reach inside you, grab hold of something you forgot was even there, and make you feel it all over again. TIP THE PIANO MAN is one of those rare novels. From the very first page, Rosetta Diane Hoessli doesn't just tell a story – she gives you a soul to hold, a child to protect, and a history that echoes louder than any dialogue.

This book is brutal in its honesty and tender in its hope. Through the shattered silence of a six-year-old girl named Piper, whose voice has been stolen by trauma, we meet a cast of characters so real they breathe off the page. Luke Callaghan, haunted by regrets and hardened by a life that never offered him safety, is forced to face the possibility that the most broken parts of him might be exactly what a lost little girl needs. And then there’s Madison Wagner, the fierce, compassionate psychologist who refuses to give up on either of them.

This is not a comfortable book. It doesn’t pull punches or dress up pain in palatable language. But what it does offer, through layers of darkness, resilience, and an unflinching look at the failures of the system meant to protect the most vulnerable, is truth. And healing. And love, in its most painfully beautiful forms.

Rosetta Diane Hoessli has written a novel that is both an indictment and an anthem. It indicts indifference. It indicts silence. And yet, more powerfully, it sings an anthem for second chances for the ones who were almost lost, and for the rare few who fight to find them again.

If you’ve ever questioned whether fiction can change you, read this book. If you’ve ever needed proof that damaged hearts can still beat in rhythm with another’s, read this book. TIP THE PIANO MAN isn’t just a story. It’s a plea, a promise, and a hand reaching out in the dark.

You’ll carry Piper with you. You’ll root for Luke. And by the end, when the silence begins to break, you’ll feel something shift – not just in the story, but in yourself.
