NEW BOOK PUBLISHED!

UPDATE: Next week, my third book in the series, "Chosen Family" will be published. The second book is "Struggles in a Boston Marriage." I am available to talk with groups about life in the 1910's, which I have researched thoroughly for my books of historical fiction.

The first book in my series was "Romance at Stonegate", the story of Deborah and Miriam, young Jewish girls vacationing in Western Massachusetts the summer of 1910. They are immediately attracted to one another, though neither understands. As they explore their intense connection with one another, they face challenges in their community, their families, their religion, and within themselves. These young women are products of the turn-of-the-century values, yet have discovered love with one another, a rarely accepted behavior in post-Victorian America. They explore ways to fit into a culture that is unforgiving of the choices they make to be together.
Join Deborah and Miriam as they explore the physical and emotional pull of young love. Passion pulls them together but separates them from everything that is familiar. It is exciting, yet frightening to discover what it means to be a lesbian in a world that is not ready for them.
