The following is the summary from the back of my newest novel due out July 2009 titled "Running Outta Time"
After introducing time travel into the world of Inspirational Fiction with his novel Life Could be a Dream, award winning author Scott Curtis returns with three more stories of adventure, suspense, and yes, even another exciting tale of time travel!
Running Outta Time brings you the stories of three separate people who indeed are running out of time. In the first story “One Crazy Summerâ€, three teens have just discovered proof that there may be a bag of one million dollars hidden somewhere inside the store where they work. With only a journal and some old newspaper clippings documenting a past bank robbery, they set out to find this money before someone gets hurt or killed. In “Brooksieâ€, Eddie discovers a door in his basement that leads directly to a 1928 amusement park. It’s the stuff dreams are made of, but dreams can also turn out to be nightmares if you don’t follow the rules. In “Daylight in Blossomâ€, Autumn Rees is haunted by whispering voices and creeping shadows that try to attack her at night. The only one who can save her is a superhero she has known all her life – the one who was there to rescue her seven years ago. Unfortunately, he doesn’t hear those voices or see the shadows… yet.

After blending a heartwarming tale of friendship with a hint of suspense in his first novel titled Mommy’s Choice, Scott Curtis returns with a refreshing novel that combines inspirational romance with a small dash of time travel.
At the sight of his abusive father lying wounded in the driveway; 16 year-old Sean finds himself at his mother’s side being urged to flee. He doesn’t recall what happened, but he reluctantly obeys. Later at a friend’s house, Sean is presented with a place to hide out where no one could ever come searching for him - a safe-house within his own neighborhood, yet fifty years in the past.
1958 welcomes Sean with its trusting neighbors, rock and roll records, chromed cars with flashy fins, and even a spot on the high school football team. Best of all, 1958 welcomes him with a beautiful girl named Clara. Sean is captured by all that his heart could ever desire in this life. As far as he’s concerned, nothing could ever make him return to the life he abandoned… unfortunately, a decision like that may not be his alone to make.
