Tess MacIntosh is 29, a professional R&B singer in a nightclub in Los Angeles, owned by her fifty-something fiance, Porter Hunt. She's as cynical and as hardnosed as Porter, due to her own difficult childhood, and is marrying Porter for his money and connections. Porter, in turn, is one of those middle-aged men whose wealth and power in his little world make him feel invincible and entitled to any beautiful woman he wants.  Tess's good friend and once teenage crush, Aaron Peterson, a musician and composer with dreams of seeing one of his musical plays on Broadway, needs her to join him for a cruise gig.  He's loved Tess since he was nineteen and she was sixteen. He sees this cruise gig as his last chance to win her over before she takes a path in life that he's convinced will lead to misery. So which path will Tess choose?  Millions of dollars if she marries Porter? Or Aaron's love and Broadway dreams?

Romance Junkies Blue Ribbon Rating: 4.5 - A compelling read, BORN TO SING is a delightfully emotion-packed women’s fiction novel, which will tug at your heartstrings. This story begins just after Eva has performed her very last opera after twenty-five years of performing. She has been called home for an emergency, but while waiting for her transportation to go home, she in interviewed by a young reporter. Eva relates her life story to her, trying to keep herself composed in the process. DJ had a recent cancer scare and has had his memoirs published. During the interview, Eva recites some of his story from her autographed copy. Deliciously infused with an intriguing plot, complex and compelling characters, family conflict, the competitive world of opera, sacrifices and tender romance, this story is one you will want to read more than once. Readers will find themselves laughing at times and near tears at other as they follow DJ and Eva’s story. A beautiful love story, BORN TO SING is one you do not want to miss. This is the first story I have read by this amazing author but I look forward to reading more of her works.

When Dina Salazar learns that her Mexican-born grandmother has a shameful secret--a son Grandma Gomez had to abandon in Mexico sixty years before--she is reluctant at first to get involved. The uncle she has never known has died mysteriously--killed, her grandmother believes, by a rival in the Juarez drug cartel. And Abuelita’s granddaughter, Teresa--Dina’s Mexican cousin--is in danger and is on the run.

To Dina’s dismay, her grandmother urges HER to find out where her granddaughter and great grandson are seeking refuge. Her grandmother tells her that Dina is the only one that can rescue Teresa and her son, for Dina is the only one who speaks fluent Spanish.
