 A captivating story with vivid imagery May 17, 2007
By Pete
D. A. Welch has produced a novel that's exciting and captivating. If you have lived in or visited the low country you will appreciate the vivid images of the area from Hilton Head Island to Charleston. The characters in this novel are believable and poignant. The story is a grabber that keeps the reader interested - a real page-turner. This book plays on the emotions: romance, terror, suspense, and angst. It is a fast moving story ideal to accompany you on your vacation this summer.

Men, women, adventure, and southern romance May 18, 2007
By Callie
Start with a revered warrior, add a genuine beauty, introduce a nasty beast, and toss in a southern venue ... Flashback has it all and then some. Cringe, cry, and laugh as you travel throughout the low country. You'll miss the characters when you turn the last page.

 Plastic Fantastic Lover Aug 18, 2007
By Floyd M. Orr
"Nonfiction in a Fictional Style"
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.
