Please remember your opinion counts to an author. My series was not one that she usually reads and once finished her review of my books was positive and heartfelt. Her comments and suggestions only helped to sharpen my writing as I love giving the best story I can to my readers. I was able to enjoy the viewpoint of a fresh pair of eyes. A personal friend was in New York during the attack. As a nurse, we waited for wounded that never came. Book three Find me again touches a personal note as I was working in the D.C. Nurses healing under enemy fire, marching across Europe, prisoners in the Pacific, some wounded,some died, many forgotten. There is a history in Wait for me, about the women that went to war.

It was a beautiful day for the Miami International Book fair.
