I was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico—before it was chic. My family moved to the East when I was three. I grew up in Teaneck, New Jersey and went to Skidmore College when it was still an all girl's school.
Being a lifelong wordsmith led me to such jobs as writing copy at ad agencies and doing sales promotions at Mademoiselle magazine. My first book, Circles, was published in 1984 as a paperback original and stayed on The New York Times Bestseller List for three months. Since then, I've published First Born, Rightfully Mine, The Wild Rose, True Colors, The Lucky Ones, Out of Nowhere, Before and Again, Shades of Red, and recently The Nest, the first in a series: Country Club Crimes. With both the hard and soft cover publications, I've resided on Bestseller Lists many times and have nearly twenty million books in print worldwide, with translations in fourteen languages.
I've been married for thirty-one years to a classic Type A personality who works hard, plays hard, sleeps fast, thinks deeply, and believes that commuting is a form of vehicular combat. I have two grown children, a daughter-in-law and two gorgeous grand girls!
My hobbies include golf, bridge and raising funds for breast cancer research.
Circles by Doris Mortman Jennifer Shelton father owned the bakery and she always helped out. Joshua Mendel her friend. She has a magazine job and married Charles but her world crumbles below her... The story follows many: Jennifer and her parents and her cheating husband. Widowed Joshua and his kids and his martial affairs. Others who lives entwine with the above characters as they try to take what they want, at no cost to them... Love hearing of the many aspects of the fashion magazine and all the categories. Hate to hear that others want to take it over at all costs. Like how the circles are formed. Surprised how things really worked out! I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).
