The novel "Emily: A young girl's desire to experience life while facing the uncertainty of death" (published by Trafford Publishing), has been selected for inclusion in the Trafford Publishing Gold Seal program, which recognizes excellence in writing and overall potential.
Twelve-year-old Emily has been diagnosed with childhood leukemia. Without a bone marrow donor, her chance of surviving the cancer is unlikely.
She has all but accepted her own death when she meets 17-year-old Jeremy, and the two develop a loving and supportive friendship. This friendship sparks Emily's hope that she might live and be cured. However, when Emily's mother learns about the relationship, she quickly tears the pair apart, removing Emily's desire to recover without Jeremy by her side.
Emily and Jeremy eventually discover a way to be together despite society's rules that could have deprived her of an opportunity to experience a life with her soul mate.
Praise for "Emily":
"Through their adult, professional work, both Jeremy and Emily Wells have counseled others and shared their unique love story. Reaffirming their personal declarations, Jeremy affirms 'I truly felt that love is the bond that keeps you safe. ... actually love, hope and God.' Surely it saved Emily. This is a provocative read, out of the mouth of babes."
- Carol Davala, The U.S. Review of Books
