From Hilton Head Island to Myrtle Beach, the coastal area of South Carolina is known as the Low Country. This picturesque region provides the backdrop for the story of a stoic soldier and a beautiful artist who, despite ill-fated timing, are drawn to each other as they struggle to put their pasts behind them. In the blackness between midnight and dawn, an explosion threw Nate from a sound sleep. He woke sweat soaked and head pounding . He made his way to the cabinet and grabbed the aspirin inside. Then he stood in front of the sink and tossed back four tablets with a glass of tap water. Eve sat quietly in her dark office and watched him go through the ritual. She had seen him do it before . She felt torn. Should she remain quiet and linger in her own torment? Should she reach out and help him with his? . He turned and met her gaze . With nothing left inside he stood still and stared. Neither moved nor spoke . both wanted, both craved, just a word or a touch.

D.A Welch has produced the perfect novel. It's fast paced, full of suspense and the characters and locations are perfect...I can't wait for the second book and the movie!

Plastic Fantastic Lover
18 Aug 2007
By Floyd M. Orr
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
D. A. Welch unleashes her first novel on an unsuspecting public. Flashback emphasizes the luxuriously humid lifestyles of the not so rich and famous living on the coastline and barrier islands of South Carolina. If the characters have any foibles, it is their plastic, Barbie-and-Ken, Porsche-piloting Yuppieness. The men are ex-Navy SEALS who work under contract with the FBI and the U.S. military, and the women glide silently through their foo-foo symphonic and artistic professions as if everyone they know enjoys the idol luxury of jobs they enjoy. Fortunately for the readers, these fantasy characters and formulaic subplots are the only negative issues waiting to be uncovered in Flashback. Ms. Welch has created a nice, light story in which many beachfront vacationers will surely wallow, especially those who enjoy a feminine fantasy.
From the lovely cover capturing the essence of The Low Country to the delicate descriptions of the island weather conditions, Flashback delivers on its promise. The storyline is a modern, romantic adventure punctuated by just enough steamy sex to keep things interesting. There are a few typos, but they are of a distinctly minimalist nature. You might find the compositional style a little too ordinary, too, but this is preferable to the overuse of conceits in which many new authors indulge. Flashback barely misses five stars, and it is certainly a fine, professionally executed first effort. Ms. Welch is to be commended for accurately writing the subject matter she knows, rather than stumbling off the deep end of the pier of artistic overextension.

Fantastic book with great characters, plot and imagery, BUT...
15 Dec 2008
By S. Schlumberger
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This book was a GREAT read! I couldn't put it down actually...however, I could not give it 5 stars because there were SO many typos and grammatical errors that I just couldn't believe the book made it to publishing. Did I have a bad copy? Is that even possible? ...they went so far as to misspell the main characters name wrong at the very end of the book [Eve(N)] I was thinking, hm, don't remember that character, duh.
It really does take something away from what would be a great book and that's really too bad.
