Author Interview:

You are a scientist and a college professor. What made you start writing novels?
I have found happiness in unexpected ways. After a lifetime of hearing “You should write a book about your life!” I did, and the book turned into a whole series.

So, are the books based on your life?
Yes, they are, but the novels are fictionalized.

Who would enjoy this novel?
Anyone who enjoys emotional reads and foreign cultures, but in particular teens who wonder about the physical and emotional implications of sexuality and parents who don’t know how to approach the subject. This novel talks about teen pregnancies, eating disorders, and peer pressure, and it might help the healing process for teens and adults struggling with similar issues. Travelers, Italy lovers, “weird” people who feel like they don’t belong anywhere, and anyone who loves addictive, sincere, emotional reads will also enjoy this story. This saga empowers girls and women to be their brave true selves.
