Welcome to historic Oberon, California

There's something magical about the tiny California coast town of Oberon. It's a place filled with mystery, intrigue, mysticism and romance from the mind of PG Forte. While the location is fictional, the people populating it seem all-too real.



Life in 'Psychic Central' is not all white light and fairy dust. Danger lurks beneath the bright surface, and the all too human emotions of jealousy, hatred and greed occasionally rage out of control.

Series Overview 

Book One:
Scent of the Roses



For years, Scout Patterson has run from the lies in her past. Now, she's back in search of the truth. What she finds instead are more lies, fresh betrayal and a second chance at her first love.

Memories and dreams of the girl he loved and lost are the only things that have gotten Nick Greco through the past twenty years.

When Scout's homecoming is followed by a recurrence of deadly attacks and mysterious disappearances, Nick must work to solve a twenty-year old mystery-or risk losing her forever.

Book Two:
A Sight to Dream Of



Sam Sterling is a man with problems. Including a partner who is trying to kill him, and a nosy reporter, who's just turned up dead! It's going to take a miracle to save him. Or, better yet, an angel.

Marsha Quinn is used to being called a witch. After all, her abilities as a psychic make a lot of people uncomfortable. But no one has ever called her an angel before! But from the moment they meet, she feels drawn to Sam, and compelled to give him all the help she can.

Book Three:
Sound of a Voice That is Still



Some wounds take a long time to heal, others never do. Four months after being wounded in the line of duty, Ryan Henderson is beginning to fear that his is of the latter variety. He's a patient man, but a poor patient. As winter drags interminably on, he's growing desperate for distraction--anything that might take his mind off his injury, before he goes insane.

Siobhan Quinn could give the injured officer a lesson or two in living with pain. It's been ten years since her life was changed and her heart critically wounded as a result of the tragic accident that robbed her of her family. She knows firsthand how grief can cripple a soul and drive a sane mind over the edge.

In the depths of winter, Ryan and Siobhan will have to make a choice: to help each other heal, or die trying.

Book Four:
A Taste of Honey



For Lucy Greco Cavanaugh, life is a dream come true. She has it all. The perfect family. The perfect husband. The perfect marriage. What more could she wish for? Other than the chance to do it all again. To experience once more the agony and ecstasy of falling in love with the man of her dreams. To recapture the joy and uncertainty that comes with starting over.

As far as Dan Cavanaugh is concerned, his life has become a nightmare. His storybook marriage is on the line when Deirdre Shelton-Cooper, the runaway daughter of a former girlfriend arrives in Oberon intent on proving Dan is her father. Even though he's convinced the girl's claims are false, Dan decides his only chance to keep from losing everything lies in keeping her very existence a secret from his wife and family.

But, sometimes, what you don't know can hurt you--and those you love. When Deirdre, masquerading as a surfer girl named Monica, accidentally hooks up with their son, Seth, Lucy and Dan are left to wonder: has their perfect, fairy-tale romance, turned into a classic Greek tragedy?

Book Five:
Touch of a Vanished Hand



Sinead Quinn has always been something of a drifter. But now, with her ex-husband trying to blackmail her, and her ex-boyfriend's widow trying to put her in jail, she has no choice but to go to ground.

But the first rule of hiding out, is to keep a low profile. And that does not mean kissing your twin sister's boyfriend (even if he can't tell the two of you apart); rescuing a troubled teen; or taking a highly visible job as hostess of Oberon's most celebrated new inn.

Adam Sasso has always dreamed big. But big dreams beget big complications. First, his goal to turn the vineyard he inherited from his grandfather into a world-class winery is threatened by a mysterious saboteur. Next, his plan to run the finest bed & breakfast Oberon has ever seen, is broadsided by a hostess who wants to run him. Finally, it seems his fondest wish, of finding love-everlasting with the soul mate of his dreams, is about to go up in smoke when he can't convince her that they're destined to be together.

Book Six:
The Spirit of the Place



'Tis the season to be jolly, but Jasmine Quinn is far from happy about her mother's latest folly: her upcoming wedding to former Wall Street financier, Sam Sterling. Jasmine doesn't like her future stepfather, or his values. In fact, there's only one thing about Sam that Jasmine can't help but admire--no matter how much she'd like to--the graduate student he's hired as an intern.

Brandon Ablemarle is also finding it hard to get into the holiday spirit. Especially since his dream job has just become a nightmare, thanks in part to the fiery redhead with some of the goofiest ideas he's ever heard of. But what else can you expect from the daughter of a self-proclaimed psychic? Marsha Quinn has a lot to answer for. Not only has she encouraged her daughter's esoteric craziness, she's also turned one of the most brilliant stock analysts Wall Street had ever seen into a nutcase as well. One who actually appears to believe that the answers to the stock market can be found in the stars!

Book Seven:
Visions Before Midnight



Chay Johnson is a traditional man; and the educator, flute maker, apprentice shaman has a lot of traditions to uphold, especially when it comes to choosing a life mate.

Erin Allridge is a modern woman, with modern ideas about relationships and a painful personal history she has no intention of repeating.

When terror and tragedy strike the small town of Oberon, the pair are forced to re-think their visions for the future.

In this world of form and spirit it can be hard to find balance and harmony, but sometimes, particularly when the veil between the worlds is at its thinnest, love can find a way to bridge the gap.

Book Eight:
Dream Under the Hill



The Spring Equinox falls in the month that nearly all Native Traditions recognize as being one of Big Winds--big changes. And big changes have certainly come to Oberon this spring, along with an ancient evil that must finally be laid to rest.

Cara Matthews is a girl with a troubled past and a very troubling present. The teenage girlfriend of Oberon's newest guru has always looked for love in all the worst places. And it doesn't get much worse than the Church of Truth, Light and Vision.

Former cop Liam McKnight could have told her that, but he's infiltrated the cult in hopes of discovering some clue to the whereabouts of his missing family members, and he can't jeopardize his mission-not even for love.

In a month marked by birth, death and marriage, the inhabitants of Oberon must all come to terms with what's really important to each of them-important enough to die for. Only one thing is certain; when the winds of change finally stop blowing nothing-and no one-will be the same.

Book Nine:
And Shadows Have Their Ending



The last two years have not been kind to Seth Cavanaugh. But, he's suffered and grown and he finally feels ready to put his troubled past behind him. So, doesn't it just figure that the girl who caused all the trouble in the first place should pick now to return and cause him even more torment?

Deirdre Delaney Shelton-Cooper has spent the past two years trying to forget the events that marked her first visit to Oberon, but can you ever really forget the memory of your first love, no matter how painful those memories are? It's just her luck the boy she put herself through hell for has turned out to be such a loser.

After a disastrous reunion, they'd both be content to have nothing more to do with each other, if only fate-and one very determined angel-were not conspiring against them.

There are some wounds that time can't heal. There are some dreams that won't come true. But, sometimes, if you're lucky, shadows have their ending. And the love you'd just about given up on returns.

Scent of the Roses

Jeanette Cottrell, Reviewer
eBook Reviews Weekly

Ms. Forte has a fine way with words. With one sentence, "She looked so much less like an axe murderer than she had the night before." she manages to sum up both a character's nervous hysteria, and her perception of Scout. Humorous irony tinges many of her observations. Some of the characters, such as Lucy Cavanaugh, the manipulative friend, have such strength that they force their way off the page and into the reader's living room.

A Sight to Dream Of

The Romance Studio
Overall rating: 4 Hearts
Sensuality rating: Very sensual
Reviewer: Diane Tugman

P.G. Forte combines romance and mystery along with humor to write a story you will find most intriguing. Her characters are well thought out and described in this tale of love, mayhem, and murder. A Sight To Dream Of is a story about a little town and the secrets it hides. Everyone gets in on the action, with a large cast of characters whose lives and secrets will make you think you're watching an episode of Dallas, with a touch of magic on the side. Add a little thing like murder and you have a tale that will keep you guessing " who did what to whom" till the very end. Marsha fights her attraction for Sam because her ex, Alex, did a very good job of hurting her, while Sam pushes her away because he's not sure if he'll be in prison for fraud or murder. A Sight To Dream Of is a great story and I recommend you read book one in this series, Scent of the Roses, to learn all the secrets in the town of Oberon.

Sound of a Voice That is Still

Romance Reviews Today
Marilyn Heyman

There is a large slate of characters who have their own stories, with misunderstandings and lack of communication causing most of their problems. Although the book can stand alone, readers will want to read some of the secondary characters' stories found in SCENT OF ROSES and A SIGHT TO DREAM OF.

The book is well written with realistic dialogue that ends in a crescendo of action and excitement, leaving a few threads for a continuation of the series. SOUND OF A VOICE THAT IS STILL is a satisfying romance and thriller that readers are sure to enjoy.

Ms. Forte continues the wonderful saga of Oberon with the fourth book in this series.
You will visit old friends and meet new ones as this story continues. As you revisit this
town with all of the secrets and mystery, you will want to keep coming back for more. I
cannot wait for the next book in this continuing saga. I want to read more about the
townsfolk of Oberon.

Touch of a Vanished Hand

Romance Junkies
Rating; 4.5 ribbons
Reviewed by: Jessica

P.G. Forte delivers once again with the fifth book in the Oberon series. TOUCH OF A VANISHED HAND has a little of everything and is a must read. It's the kind of book that a guy will read and enjoy, if only in private. The action is real and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Each book can stand on it's own, but reading one book from the series will whet your appetite for more. Ms. Forte has made for herself a devoted fan.

The Spirit of the Place

One Reviewer
Carrie White

What a tangled web we weave, but this is intrigue at its best. Complex and romantic in all the right proportions, The Spirit of the Place keeps the readers interest for sure. Set in the vague style of 'Scrooge' by Charles Dickens, its festive feel and portrayal of the complexity of human relationships is magic in itself. The four main protagonists have a strong network of supporting characters to make this novel a gem for Xmas, especially. Go buy!

Visions before Midnight

Wateena
Reviewer For Coffee Time Romance
Reviewer For Karen Find Out About New Books

Once again, Ms. Forte continues the Oberon series in a suspenseful and intriguing way. Oberon is a town belonging to psychics and other paranormal entities. Interesting characters and even secondary characters are the main thread in these series. Although the seventh in the series, each one can stand-alone. Each Oberon resident has it's own story to tell, and each just as fascinating as the last. From ghosts to mind reading to all kinds of supernatural, this is one series you do not want to miss. Sensual romance and exciting suspense fills this story to the brim.

Dream Under the Hill

Charissa
Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance
Reviewer for Karen Find Out About New Books

This is book eight in a series set in a fictional town in California. With a cast of characters well over forty, it's complex, intricately woven and laid out with a surprisingly skilled touch. The author's ability to capture not only the raw human emotion, but the tangibly spiritual as well is simply amazing. The attention to the myriad of emotions is brilliant. This book was fantastic; however, it is highly recommended the reader delve into the first seven books first to have a better understanding of the entire cast.

And Shadow Have their Ending

Cherokee
Reviewer for Coffee Time Romance
Reviewer for Karen Find Out About New Books

And Shadows Have Their Endings is a story that revolves around loss, death, and losing faith and trust in people. The characters of Seth and Deirdre carry wounds that pierce deep into the soul, as they try to stay steadfast over matters, while coming to terms with the heartache. P.G. Forte pens a tale showing the many setbacks that humans deal with in life, while allowing the pain Seth feels to stem through the pages.
