Editorial Reviews

Product Description

It was Jack Torello. The face was unmistakable. Mimsi had constructed that face in her mind’s eye millions of times over. The dark, puffy hair with the light touches of grey at the temples. The sun kissed skin showing deep creases around the eyes and that small, delicate mouth, a baby’s mouth stuck in an older man’s face. It was exactly how she had pictured him all these years. It was her vision of Jack Torello.

Mimsi Preen has everything: fame, fortune, beauty, and dedicated friends and family. But something is wrong with Mimsi. No amount of money has been able to heal the pain of her constant illusion, Jack Torello, a terrible man that threatens her peace and robs her of feeling any real love. He is always with her, never ceasing to take control of every move in her life. The only way to make him behave is to write his books. So she does.

For twenty-five years, she writes best-selling novels under the pseudonym of Jack Torello just to keep him quiet. Now she wants to end it. When she makes the move to reveal herself as the true author of the famous mafia novels, Jack proves to be more than just an illusion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Advice from the author, March 8, 2006
Hi There, I'm Jennifer Holly MacDonald and I just want you to know I loved writing this book. I'm sure that now that you know that, you'll want to buy ten copies and give them to your friends. Ha Ha - Just kidding (sort of). If you need some samples of my work to find out whether or not you find my work entertaining, please go to mimsipreen.com and check out some of my stuff. If you like anything there I'm sure you'll get your money's worth when you buy The Turning Point of Mimsi Preen.

Also recommended: Some of my favorite authors are Stephen King, Connie Willis, Douglas Adams, Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra and Sylvia Browne. There are many more. Please share yours when you write a review of my book.
