Hi Friend

Happy Valentine's Day!

I remember my first Valentine's Day with my husband. We didn't do anything out of the ordinary. We went out to dinner and a movie, but I bought him a gift - I don't even remember what it was. But he was so touched. He couldn't believe that I bought him something because he's such a giver and he was always the one showering his dates with gifts.

I remember thinking how sweet it was that he was so happy and grateful. His most endearing quality has always been is big heart. Thirty-four years later, we're still together.

I'm a sucker for romance and love which is why I was attracted to romance novels and why I still write about relationships.

However my new novel, the one I'm just starting will be a little different because it will be based on my parents and their story of starting their lives in America as two young people completely in love and with dreams of building a happy life together. But it's not a romance. It will be a story about the realities of the American Dream.

If you'd like to see how it develops, follow me on my Facebook Page.

This Is Now, my previous novel about the love between a mother and a daughter, is still available for purchase at:

Amazon

Barnes & Noble

Or your favorite online bookstore

I hope you enjoy your Valentine's Day! Even if you don't have a romantic relationship in your life at this moment, I hope you'll connect with friends, parents, your kids, even your pets and share your love for each other.
