NEW YORK - May 14, 2021 - (Newswire.com)

Gianna Emiko Barnes, a writer who works in education and enjoys writing in her spare time, has completed her most recent book "Fallen": an unexpected romance between Taryn and Derek, two individuals whose paths crossed only for them to find themselves in a whirlwind of surprises. As the two deal with their haunting pasts, will they be able to fully embrace the happiness they found in each other?

Gianna writes, "Taryn Okata lives a simple life, always putting the people she cares for above her own needs and desires. After surviving countless heartaches, a trip to San Francisco with her family for her brother's graduation provides her with some much-needed fresh air. With the promise of a new start and a new job over the summer, things are finally looking up for her until Derek Bennett comes crashing into her life like a freight train.

He is an up-and-coming actor whose path brings him to San Francisco to film and spend time with his little sister who is graduating. But Derek gets more than he bargains for as Taryn blindsides him with her beauty and kindness from the second they meet. After getting his own heartbroken, he is given a sense of hope. But for the both of them, their pasts will never be far behind, coming out of nowhere to haunt them and pulling them further into the depths of their hidden pains than ever before. Will the fate that brought them together be enough to save them? Or will it threaten to destroy more than the hope for happiness they have finally found in one another?"

Published by Fulton Books, Gianna Emiko Barnes' book provides a captivating love story for readers where they will experience a journey of first meetings, falling in love, moving forward, and seeking destinies.

Characters are purely fictional, but the challenges they face are very real and inspiring.

Czechs beat USA to qualify for Davis Cup finals

PARIS, France —  Jiri Lehecka downed Learner Tien in a deciding rubber Saturday as the Czech Republic stunned the United States 3-2 in Davis Cup qualifying for a second straight year, while South Korea reached the last eight for the first time. The Czechs knocked out the Americans at the same second qualifying round stage in a decider at Delray Beach a year ago, when Jakub Mensik beat Frances Tiafoe to secure a surprise victory. Tomas Berdych's men repeated the feat in similarly dramatic fashion, to the delight of a raucous home crowd in Prague, as Lehecka clinched a 6-3, 7-5 win over world number 13 Tien. The USA are record 32-time winners of the competition but their wait for a first title since 2007 goes on. The Czechs advance to the November eight-team finals in Bologna, where hosts Italy will bid for a fourth straight title. "The wins in Davis Cup are always a little bit different because this is a team competition," said Lehecka. After starting the day locked at 1-1, the USA nudged ahead as Christian Harrison and Austin Krajicek saved four match points to outlast Adam Pavlasek and Patrik Rikl in a thrilling 5-7, 6-3, 7-6 (10/8) win. Mensik then fought back from a set down to keep the tie alive by defeating recent US Open runner-up Ben Shelton 5-7, 6-4, 6-3. Shelton took a tense first set after saving a set point when trailing 5-4, reeling off the last three games. Mensik created a set point at exactly the same stage of the second, but this time made no mistake with a booming forehand to level the match. The 21-year-old, a semi-finalist at this year's French Open, forced the tie into a deciding rubber on his second match point in a tense final game. Lehecka, who beat Shelton in straight sets on Friday, recovered after giving an early break back to take the first set. Tien forged 3-0 ahead as he attempted to force the tie to a final set, but fell away and Lehecka clinched the win on his fourth match point. "I must say it has been a great week. But, most importantly, we made it through as a team," Lehecka said. "Without Jakub winning against Ben, I would not have the chance to play the final match." History-making South Korea  Earlier, South Korea made history by beating India 3-1 in Seoul. Kwon Soon-woo brushed aside Sumit Nagal 6-1, 6-2 to clinch the decisive point for the Koreans, who won both Friday's singles rubbers before India triumphed in the doubles. "I feel very proud for my country and every team I play against, I give my best," said Kwon. Canada beat France 3-1 at Quebec City to reach the last eight. Benjamin Bonzi and Pierre-Hugues Herbert beat Felix Auger-Aliassime and Duncan Chan 7-6 (7/4), 6-3 in doubles to keep France in the fight after two singles losses on Friday. World number five Auger-Aliassime would not be denied, however, as he rallied to defeat France's Arthur Rinderknech 4-6, 7-6 (7/5), 6-4 to ensure Canada advanced. The Canadians last won the Davis Cup in 2022 while France has not hoisted the trophy since 2017. Austria booked their spot as Jurij Rodionov sealed a 3-1 win for the hosts in Vienna with a 7-6 (8/6), 6-3 victory over Zizou Bergs, Belgium's number one in the absence of Alexander Blockx. Newly-crowned US Open champion Alexander Zverev gave Germany a 1-0 lead over Croatia in Halle, making a quick return to action as he beat Matej Dodig 6-4, 7-6 (7/3). But Germany, who have not won the Davis Cup since 1993, were pegged back to end the first day level as Croatian youngster Dino Prizmic brushed aside Daniel Altmaier 6-4, 6-3. Spain continued their tilt at a seventh title by seizing a 2-0 lead over Chile in Santiago courtesy of singles wins for Daniel Merida and Davis Cup debutant Rafael Jodar over Alejandro Tabilo and Cristian Garin, respectively. Britain's Toby Samuel overcame Andres Andrade of Ecuador and Wimbledon semi-finalist Arthur Fery saw off Alvaro Guillen Meza as the hosts took a 2-0 advantage in London.
