When world class snowboarding sensation, Scott Locke, returns to his home in West Virginia to be honored by the ski resort where he worked as a teenager, a freak accident costs him the opportunity to compete in the upcoming X-Games. Broken and distraught, the competition soon becomes a secondary consideration when Scott unwittingly releases a force that has been locked away for centuries, a force so powerful and dark that it threatens all mankind.
Parisa is an ancient spirit; exotic, beautiful, and mysterious, yet out of place in today’s world. Scott must find a way to help her acclimate and nurture respect, love, and tolerance for humanity. The plan begins to backfire as Scott develops feelings for Parisa, and he is drawn into her world of magic and power. In the face of great temptations, Scott must make the ultimate choice. He must decide to sacrifice his love for the sake of all mankind or give in to his passion and enjoy the riches and rewards of unlimited power.
Praise Parisa by Conrad Trump
“Parisa held my interest and was hard to put down. I enjoyed it and can’t wait for Conrad to write another story. I believe Parisa would make a good movie!”- Debbie Moore, Reviewer
“I read Conrad’s book in less than three days. Not only is it a good story, but anyone from West Virginia will love the way Conrad blended our home state into the story about a West Virginia native who becomes a world class snow boarder. This gave us native mountaineers a great deal to be proud of not only with the West Virginia setting, but knowing our native son has developed into a great writer.
I look forward to reading more stories written by Conrad in the future. I loved the book.”-KC Bohrer, Reviewer
“What an excellent book! This book keeps you hanging until you get to the next page. An excellent read by an excellent author! I am looking forward to reading future books by this author! Excellent word choice provides vivid pictures throughout the story. Excellent story line.”- Meredith L. Zirkleml, Reviewer

Thank you for including “Parisa.” I hope your readers enjoy it.
Sounds like an interesting combination of snowboarding and magical fantasy!
Thanks, it was fun to write.
Intriguing and unique.
I would love to know what you think when you have finished it.
Sounds like an intriguing fantasy.
Thank you. The 2nd book in the series, “Parisa II: Family Ties,” is out as well. Enjoy!
I was so worried the author was going to be some heretofore unknown Trump spawn. This sounds like a truly creative book — the opposite of the kind of book I’d associate with my worst stereotypes of your last name! You should be the Trump everyone thinks of first! Cheers, Kara S
Of course, it is unfortunate that he shares the last name but rest assured, there is no relation to that other Trump. LOL!
I could tell once I read this feature! Birds of different feathers obviously! Good luck with the tour. –Kara S
