Story Title: Roses in Winter: Carlisle's Journals – The Journey of a Father

Author: Whispering Wolf

Rating: PG

For those of you who have read Roses in Winter, this is a companion piece to that. For those of you who have not read Roses in Winter, I highly suggest that you do, before you continue reading this.

Carlisle's Journals are not a retelling of the story, nor do they entirely parallel the story chapter for chapter. This story tells the emotional journey that Carlisle took throughout the story in a collection of journal entries. Though the language that is used herein will lack profanity, the journal entries will still maintain the sensitive subjects discussed within Roses: child abuse, stalking, serial killers, and neglect.
