Résumé

This story is set in a small coastal town, Angourie in Northern NSW, in the early nineteen-nineties. Matilda Macallan, has lived her whole life in Angourie, growing up with her three older brothers. She's a wild child, so her life has been filled with temporary and transient love. Dalton, a country boy from Deniliquin, with a tragic backstory enters Matilda's workplace, The Angourie Local, where the only whisky they sell is The Macallan, after their family namesake.
Matilda and Dalton form a beautiful, magnetic and romantic friendship in a very short space of time. The only challenge within this new relationship is that Matilda has some emotional triggers from past relationships, and Dalton has a dark secret that he is trying to keep hidden. They miscommunicate and go their separate ways only realising when it's too late, of their wrongdoings. Both are on a quest to find each other without even knowing the other one is looking for the other.
Their search for each other takes them to Byron Bay, Coolangatta, and Surfers Paradise. The people they meet, and the adventures they endure eventually bring them back together, but not without one final twist. This story makes you think about synchronicity in life.'Some people believe that synchronicity is just a series of random coincidences. The difference is that a coincidence is perceived as chance or luck, while synchronicity implies the presence of a deeper intelligence at work.' - Carl Jung.
I like to think that synchronicity is the magical and universal tapestry of life that weaves us together in nature and human connection. Synchronicity is the most beautiful silent concept at work, happening around us and within us, every day of our lives. In the early 90s, we had no mobile phones or social media to keep us connected. Somehow, the magic of life still happened in such a beautiful and natural way.
That's when synchronicity did some really good work, if you were paying attention. And if not.I guess you'd never know the difference.

Biographie de Melanie Jay

Melanie Jay: mother, daughter, sister, friend, colleague, worker, volunteer, social butterfly-by day and night. I am in the midst of writing a few amazing creative fiction novels; they are entirely made-up stories, and they all connect in weird and wonderful ways. Blame it on The Macallan, Jinx, The Butterfly Necklace, The Gaffer, Tigerlily Queeen (yes, spelt with a triple e.)I self-published a personal story, Bee Sting - My Bali Diary, ten years ago and again one year ago, Bee Sting My Bali Diary - Edit 2022, an edited version of the same story with twenty years of reflection.
I have renamed the book Twenty Years an Angel. My first husband was killed in the Bali bombings of 2002, and I have grown through the grief of his loss over the past twenty years, partly because I have been able to express my deepest emotions through words and poetry. My story is intended to help others to learn to live through grief and beyond it. About ten years ago, I discovered that I love to write creative novels and poetry when life inspires me and gives me time to do so.
Writing is my hobby, passion and creative outlet that fulfils my happiness and joy in life. I have two incredible daughters, aged 18 and 19. They are my best friends, and I love them both wholeheartedly. I have a beautiful, simple life. I have lived in a tiny house for three years, and more recently I am moving to Malta. I'm passionate about education, and my full-time job has been teaching for almost thirty years.
In my spare time, I love to play with music and adventurous people, and I love being creative with photography, music and words. My mind thinks in pictures, movies, words and stories. It never stops thinking. I love it!
