Wish me (and Daysy, Stella, Magda Elena, Angel and the rest of the A FALLING STAR crew) a happy book birthday!

And do join me in thanking the terrific people at Carolina Wren Press--Andrea Selch and Robin Miura, editor extraordinaire!

A Falling Star is available on Amazon and via Carolina Wren Press, and will soon be available through Barnes and Noble, too.

Here's what some of my favorite authors have so generously shared about A Falling Star:

Judith Ortiz Cofer (The Latin Deli) calls it "a captivating tale of loss and redemption."
Marie Manila (The Patron Saint of Ugly) says, "This haunting novel delivers not only secrets and lies, pounding guilt and grief, but glorious redemption."
Sandra Rodriguez Barron (The Heiress of Water) wrote,"This is a beautiful story about instincts that keeps families together in even the most horrifying of circumstances." 

In other words, go get your copy. And, if you are so moved, add the novel to your Goodreads list, and leave a review on Amazon. Not surprisingly, reviews matter. So help a sister out, ok?

And, if you're near Auburn on Thursday, August 28th, please come by for my Alabama book launch party! Note the Cuban food and drinks. CUBAN FOOD AND DRINKS.
