Retired Teacher Turned Author Dorothea L. Gordon Releases Mystical Sequel That Explores the Integration of Healing, Love, and the Paranormal
Unseen Forces Follows Handwriting Expert Lotti Seidel and Physician Dr. Joseph LeBouteilier as They Navigate Supernatural Healing, Passionate Love, and Life-or-Death Stakes
Comox Valley, BC, Canada –March 3, 2026 – Paranormal romance author Dorothea L. Gordon announces the release of her highly anticipated new novel, Unseen Forces, publishing March 15, 2026. The sequel to Daring Decisions, this spellbinding story explores what happens when healing becomes supernatural and impacts lives in astonishing ways—weaving spiritual phenomena, passionate devotion, and difficult choices into an unforgettable journey across continents.
Unseen Forces centers on Dr. Joseph LeBoutillier, a physician who awakens from a near-fatal coma with an extraordinary gift: the ability to channel Universal energy and receive guidance from spirit doctors. Dismissed as a fraud by the medical establishment, Joe must navigate his miraculous powers alongside his ex-wife, Lotti Seidel—a gifted handwriting expert with her own psychic abilities who has learned to trust her intuition while aiding police and friends alike.
Together, they forge an unlikely healing practice that defies conventional medicine. But when Lotti travels to Rome as keynote speaker at an international conference, she faces an unbearable dilemma: Mauro, the passionate Italian artist from her past, is dying and abandoned by doctors who can’t help him. As Joe’s supernatural abilities are tested across an ocean, Lotti’s heart is pulled between two extraordinary men in a story that transcends the boundaries between the seen and unseen worlds.
“When healing becomes supernatural, it impacts lives in unexpected ways,” says Gordon. “I wanted to explore the profound questions that arise when someone receives a divine gift—the skepticism, the sacrifice, and the extraordinary power of love and connection that can reach beyond what we understand as possible. The protagonists live and work in Victoria, so I used real places and names in that city and the surrounding areas.”
From the earthquake-shattered streets of Haiti to the enchanting piazzas of Rome, Unseen Forces delivers soul-bound connections and high-stakes drama perfect for readers who crave stories where love, healing, and destiny intertwine.
Gordon draws from her own rich background to infuse authenticity into her paranormal romance. Shortly after moving from her native Bavaria, Germany, to Canada many years ago, she was invited to study energy healing and psychic phenomena—experiences that directly inspired both Daring Decisions and its sequel. As a certified handwriting analyst and Questioned Documents Examiner herself, Gordon passes this unique profession on to her heroine Lotti, grounding the supernatural elements in real-world expertise.
“My years studying energy healing and psychic phenomena opened my eyes to dimensions of reality that most people never explore,” Gordon explains. “These experiences, combined with my work as a handwriting analyst, gave me a unique lens through which to tell stories about the invisible powers that shape our lives and loves.”
Unseen Forces will appeal to fans of paranormal romance who appreciate richly drawn characters, exotic international settings, and the collision of the mystical with the everyday. The novel explores themes of second chances, the price of extraordinary gifts, and the courage required to trust in forces beyond our understanding.
