A reunion in Paradise, where it all began.
They met by chance in Hawaii last year and a friendship was forged. In the ensuing months . . . Allison Bradley, vibrant Alaskan, experiences life-changing events, bringing both joy and desperation. Susan Alexander mends her body and soul as life grows in ways she never expected after the collapse of her well-ordered life as a lawyer in San Francisco. Glynnis Paxton challenges her shyness, gambles, and takes a painful pathway away from Philadelphia to grow and change in Hawaii. She questions throughout the year if she has made the right choice, moving to a place so different from anything she has known. There is no way of knowing what a staggering surprise she faces. As the three become your friends, be prepared for a whirlwind travel escape as you live with them during the year. Visit Allison in her Alaska, and admire this wild place she loves, so generous with its gifts and beauty; roam the sand dunes, breathe in the sea air with Susan in beautiful Carmel, California, which she hopes to call home once again; share the magic of Hawaii with Glynnis, discover its heavenly tropic splendor and wonder if it will capture her soul. The year brings changes for each woman and tests them. Now they are fulfilling their pledge to reunite once more where it all began. And there is a wedding to celebrate.

Diane Hanger (pictured, center, with her four daughters) was born in Carmel,
California. She is stirred by the grace and power of words, personal
interactions and the intricacy and strength of the human spirit, aware that
every place in the world provides a unique stage for life's story. Humor is
a constant ally and indispensable tool. Diane is retired and lives in her
beloved village of Carmel with her husband, Bruce. Four children, twelve
grandchildren and six great-grandchildren afford her immeasurable joy, as
well as considerable insight into life at all stages. This is her second
novel, a sequel to her first, Eve's Rib.

author of Avoiding Self Imposed Adversities
From the beginning, and throughout the process of publishing my first book, I felt that I was in the hands of a pro. Dana always took the time to answer my questions in detail and swiftly, and if she didn't have 100% confidence, she researched the question and got back to me. I was very pleased with her and I am also thankful that I was paired with her as an Author Rep.

Thank you for making a potentially hectic journey so enjoyable and so satisfying.

author of Children: My Heritage - A Testimony
The one-on-one with Lisa was great. Especially the phone call picking out styles, font, cover template etc. She even got a vote on the color. I so wanted to have my daughter's painting as the art work on the cover and she gave me a way to do that. Her guidance helped turn my dream into a reality and sometimes it is still hard to believe until I look at my book. Thank you.

Their process is simple and seamless with everything happening in a timely manner, giving authors complete control over how their book will appear inside and out. And the people there are fantastic. They’re friendly, knowledgeable, courteous, patient and quick to reply to emails. What more can an author ask?
Needless to say, I’ve found a home here at Outskirts Press.
