Product Description

When Rosalie Martin was seventeen, she knew two things that were true: (1) You couldn’t help but meet a man in a military uniform in southern California in the 1950s, and (2) Sooner or later, men would leave. But that didn’t stop her mother, her sister, or even herself from trying to find a man who would stay. And before she knew it, she had not only one man on her hands, but two.

When Rosalie sends a Dear John letter to the one serving in the Korean War to marry the one back home, she begins a life of secrets and regrets. Years later, when letters surface on Balboa Island, she realizes she may have chosen the wrong man. So when fate gives her the chance to make a different choice, will she? Or has she lived a life of lies for too long?

About the Author

Born in the City of Angels, raised on Walt Disney, and inspired by the dreams of both, Kathy Holmes grew up in southern California halfway between Disneyland and Balboa Island. Tantalized by the tropics since Adam Troy set sail on the Kon Tiki in James A. Michener's "Adventures in Paradise," she traveled to tropical destinations such as Hawaii, Florida, the Caribbean, Mexico, and Asia Pacific. Eventually, she moved to Florida where she wrote and secured representation for Real Women Wear Red. She also wrote for Walt Disney World and the Orlando Sentinel. After living in Las Vegas for a few years, Kathy, her husband, and their three Burmese cats have moved back to Florida and are now living halfway between Walt Disney World and the beach in Central Florida.

More About the Author

Kathy Holmes was born in Los Angeles but grew up in nearby Orange County halfway between Disneyland and the beach.

Tantalized by the tropics since Adam Troy set sail on the Kon Tiki in James A. Michener's "Adventures in Paradise," she's traveled to tropical destinations such as Hawaii, Florida, the Caribbean, Mexico, and Asia Pacific. Eventually, she moved to Florida where she wrote and secured representation for her first published novel, REAL WOMEN WEAR RED. She also wrote for Walt Disney World, fulfilling two dreams at once.

Her second novel, THE TOM JONES CLUB, published by Bookstrand Mainstream Romance, begins its journey in Orlando and finds its way to Las Vegas. She credits her step dad for the inspiration because, like a character out of Mad Men trying to quit smoking, he drove the family to Las Vegas to keep his hands busy playing craps. Kathy was seven at the time and remembers doing her homework in the family station wagon while being mesmerized by the neon lights.

Las Vegas is also the setting for her short story VIVA LAS VEGAS, included in the anthology A SHAKER OF MARGARITAS: HOT FLASH MOMMAS, published by Mozark Press.
