Here are words I've waited my whole life to say: (drum roll, please...): St. Martin's Press, one of the biggest
publishers in the world, published my first novel What More Could You Wish For on August 7, 2012.This is a dream I've had ever since Mrs. Allen at Fulton School in Toledo, Ohio read my short story aloud to the class in third grade.
Libby
Carson has a great life—a thriving business, a family she adores, and a
steady guy with whom she has “an arrangement.” Life is good. Life is
nice and tidy. Until, that is, her 50th birthday. That’s when Libby
reconnects with her high school boyfriend online. That’s also when her
significant other does the unthinkable: he proposes. Libby’s been down
the marriage road before and it just didn’t work. So while she’s trying
to persuade her guy to keep things status quo, she also begins an
email correspondence with her old flame. Just for fun, she tells
herself. But fun soon turns to flirtation and Libby is startled to feel
some stirrings of the passion she felt at seventeen. How is that
possible? She thought she had things all figured out. Now, Libby must
take stock of her life and everyone in it, to answer for herself the
question everyone’s been asking her: What more could you wish for?
