Catherine - a Romantic Mystery Novella

Excerpts from Catherine by Richard Davies.

Catherine is a romantic mystery novella, unlike any written.
The story centres on Catherine Colonessi, a young married woman who appears to have everything.
A beautiful home in Beverly Hills, a successful husband, and wonderful teenage son.
All seems to be well, until she falls in love with a man in her dreams.
These dreams are so real, and sequential, that Catherine finds difficulty in separating dreams from reality.
She feels sure that Benjamin, the man of her dreams, exists, and tries to find him.
Thus begins the mystery which takes many twists and turns, until it reaches a shocking unexpected ending.
I enjoy writing mysteries, and quirky tales, and have tried to combine these elements to a love story.

I hope you will enjoy some excerpts from Catherine.

Catherine was awakened suddenly...
Griselda, her housekeeper, was knocking on the bedroom door. An instant later, the door almost burst from it's hinges as Adrianna entered in typical dramatic fashion.
"Come on Cathy. I 'm running late. Some of us have to work for a living." She added, tongue in cheek.
Griselda, who had tried unsuccessfully to prevent Adrianna from entering, gave a look of disapproval and returned to her housework.
Adrianna was Catherine's older sister by one year. They were of Italian descent, and as like, yet unalike as sister's can be. Both had raven black hair, and olive skin. Adrianna was a very attractive women, and Catherine a timeless beauty.
"Just give me a minute hon." Catherine entered her bathroom.
"I'll get us cappuccinos." Adrianna said, as she left the room.
