AKA Dolores Stewart
Dolores Stewart Riccio was born in Boston and grew up in Pembroke, a small New England town on the South Shore of Massachusetts. She lived in Duxbury which is located near the town of Plymouth, the setting for her Circle novels.
Dolores wrote: "As a poet, I'd always signed my maiden name, Dolores Stewart. For cookbooks, I preferred my married name, Dolores Riccio; after all, it was my loyal husband who got to try all those experimental dishes. Not wanting to abandon either chapter of my past, I'm using both names for fiction."
She began her writing career as a poet (Dolores Stewart), and continued to write poems between other writing projects.
In the '80s, she began to write cookbooks (Dolores Riccio) with a health theme, of which Superfoods for Time-Warner is the best known. The success of Superfoods gave her the encouragement to "quit her daytime job" as a greeting card editorial director and enjoy the precarious profession of full-time freelance writer.
In the meantime, she also co-authored two volumes of stories about famous haunted houses in the United States--Haunted Houses U.S.A. and More Haunted Houses.
Sometime in the 1990s, she threw out her food files and her ghost files, and turned at last to fiction.

This was an inspiring tale and I could not put it down for a moment. I loved traveling with every single character and I especially enjoyed the psychic element of our heroine!
More than a great read...a must read!

This book was full of hope, romance, and mystery. By far Dolores Stewart Riccio's finest work. If you are a fan of tightly woven stories, you'll enjoy this.
