Tender Triumph by Ruth Roberts was recently released by Prism Book Group. Here’s a sneak peak.    After a very public divorce from her billionaire Italian husband, Natalia Montalvo returns home to New York City to lick her wounds and try to put the pieces of her shattered heart back together. So why did she agree to attend a charity ball, especially when she knew her ex would be there? When he arrives with his newest love interest, she feels all the pieces she had managed to put together crumbling again. Jared, owner of the largest, most prestigious architectural firm in the country, rubs elbows daily with the rich and powerful. He can’t stand them. After one too many altercations with a client, his head of public relations forces him to attend the annual charity ball, to schmooze and make nice with the people whom his business depends on.

Here Today Gone Tomorrow

Here Today Gone Tomorrow by Carlene Havel is a sweet love story and so much more. The book sets a realistic pace for healing after a major emotional setback. As readers we get to watch Casey, the main character, deal with having her life turned upside down and her confidence shattered, but then we get the privilege of sharing her journey of starting over and finding happiness she didn’t believe possible.   Ms. Havel has created a believable and delightful supporting cast of characters and a truly heartwarming story in which nearly everyone will be able to find something to relate to their own lives.
