I wanted to announce that a Goodreads Giveaway is currently running for 100 Kindle/eBook copies of my third novel to publish -- The Light Tower. The Giveaway ends June 29, so enter now to win!!!
I am thrilled that my readers seem to be enjoying The Light Tower as much as, if not more than, my first two novels (The Wine Club and Across the Street). The Light Tower currently holds a 4.5-star rating on Amazon and a 4.3-star rating on Goodreads:
5-star - "Laurie Lisa again shines with this incredibly tragic yet real and loving story of a mother and her daughter, whose lives were tragically torn apart."
5-star - "I read this book after reading and enjoying Laurie Lisa’s Across the Street and was not disappointed - I enjoyed this one even more!"
5-star - "This was the third Laurie Lisa book that I have read and The Light Tower will draw you in and keep you there until you have read the last page."
5-star - "This was a truly powerful, emotionally-driven narrative. Author Laurie Lisa once again shines through with this incredibly tragic yet real and loving story of a mother and her daughter, whose lives were tragically torn apart one fateful day. "
From the book listing:
Thirty years ago in Chicago, a troubled, full-term pregnant woman escapes from the maternity ward of a hospital and climbs to the top of a 100-foot light tower in an abandoned railway yard. Melody Arnold is convinced that her baby is dead, and neither reassurances from her doctor nor the fact that she is a nurse can convince her otherwise. She jumps. Melody doesn’t survive, but miraculously, when the paramedics arrive, a tiny foot protrudes from the woman’s stomach, twitching.
Now, Kat Flowers is living in Arizona and celebrating her thirtieth birthday. Stuck in a rut of dead-end jobs and a failed relationship, she receives a cryptic birthday card from a father she ran away from fourteen years ago. Desperate for answers, Kat takes a journey back to Illinois—to see a family she left behind and learn the truth about a mother she never knew.
Kat shares the journey with the charismatic Zen, who has his own reasons for returning home. There, Kat tries to solve the complicated mystery of her mother’s identity . . . and then understand why she made that tragic leap.
A compelling novel about a mother’s dark secrets, The Light Tower explores the lasting connection between a mother and her daughter, even when they never knew each other. This story about one family’s hidden past is a riveting must-read for your book club.
