I'Ll Be Looking At The Moon

A young woman, from a rich but destructive New England family, finishes college to work in France where she meets her Italian lover. Together they form an unusually passionate and tender bond. However, a misunderstanding between them which raises specters of her abusive parents, sends her fleeing back to the States, not aware she is pregnant. After her son's birth, she conceals her whereabouts from the boy's father. He, in turn, is desperate to find her and explain that his seemingly cruel actions were necessary to save her life. He is not successful. After fifteen years, her son - the image of his father - goes off to private school and she is faced with loneliness, separation and longing. She returns to France to find answers about the man she knows is her true love. She overcomes a painful truth about her brother-protector, the decline into madness of her mother and a lifetime of self-doubts to discover in herself the courage to claim her right to romantic love. In her Italian lover she finds 'home'. I''ll Be Looking at the Moon received an Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award.
