About this ebook

Estelle's joy in her pregnancy is tempered by an impending divorce. Was her husband habitually unfaithful or was it just the one time with Miriam? It shouldn’t matter, but she can’t move on without knowing.
Working in Paris for a year is helping Miriam adjust to the loss of her husband. Spring brings a constant stream of visitors. A secret project further strains Miriam’s relationship with her boss, Estelle.
Two women from different cultures connect in uncomfortable ways through work and life choices.

Author

Katherine Lato

Katherine Lato wrote computer programs in the telecommunication field for almost thirty years, taking every opportunity to write words in addition to computer instructions. This provides a rich background for her character-driven novels such as “Sticky Note Empire” where much of the conflict comes from forcing a mismatched team to work closely together. As the mother of three children, she brings her experience into novels such as “Making Family” and her Edinburgh Series of “Yes, And” and “Yes, But.” Working as a technical writer at Fermilab adds another dimension to her fiction writing as does her role as VP-Communications of the non-profit Partners Bridging the Digital Divide. Several short stories addressing digital inclusion can be found at: http://pbdd.org/creative-writing/ Katherine has been a member of NaNoWriMo and CritiqueCircle for ten years and has released several novels available at: katherinelato.com
