ABOUT
THE BOOK
|
| Circle of Love is the enchanting story of youthful exhilaration in the budding of "Love's Blossom;" the heartbreaking promise that crushes love and spirals its characters into "The Storm Within;" the resilience of friendship and honour that develops into love's "Gentle Submission;" the challenge of a "New Beginning" when a revolution takes its toll; and the strength and weakness of the links that come "Full Circle" to a love that is destined to be. Circle of Love is the story of Lucia, a young Hispanic-American girl, and the trials and triumphs she experiences through love and cultural differences. It follows her journey through innocence and despair into the spirit of a woman's strength. |
| ABOUT THE AUTHOR |
|
Soecy (pronounced "Susie") Gummels spends her time between Suriname and the United States. She has always been extremely fond of the sound, sight, and every nuance in the feel and taste of "words." Writing has always been her favourite hobby, and she has written children's stories, poetry, and prose. Travelling is her favourite "sport," and she delights in experiencing the wonders of other cultures and communicating with people. Most of all, she revels in the joy of the one constant in her life: her family. |
