This is a pretty good contemporary woman’s fiction. Amelia was approaching 60 and suddenly a widow. She has a road ahead of her that it seems she is not ready for. She had a husband who did everything for her. Making reference to numerology, the title is fitting. It is a somewhat emotional story that encompasses love, marriage, life, and loss. I understood the character and how she had to push herself to accept the loss of Nathan and grow. I got the impression that she needed to grow as a single person, as a widow, and that was the hard part for her. I think she had issues with her daughter, thus effecting her emotional state.

It was a book that will appeal to the over 30 crowd. A lot of wisdom in the pages.

On my latest novel Twelve Houses, I tell the story of a
widow who discovers that her life story is far from over. Amelia is a brave woman who struggles to find her true place in the world and at the same time to create a life that holds spiritual meaning and purpose.

 
Though my first book, Borrowing My Mother’s Saints, was a comedy set in New York, I think both books describe a similar spiritual journey. The struggles of all of my characters are very important to me, and I love to hear from my readers about my books.
 
In my everyday life, I am married, and my husband and I
are raising two sons. We currently divide our lives between San Diego, California, and Mexico.
