Ellen M. Levy, B.S., M.A., C.A.G.S., lives in the Boston area with her wife, Pauli, and her two cats. She winters at a women's community in Florida, where 500 senior sisters celebrate the hard-won freedom to be themselves. Ellen began writing later in life with a memoir and then discovered her two heroines, Deborah and Miriam. Introduced in Romance at Stonegate, their relationship deepens in Struggles in a Boston Marriage. One of the most enjoyable aspects of this series is the exciting depth of historical research which infuses Ellen's process. Ellen is thrilled to share this next installment of Deborah and Miriam's lives. These 21- and 22-year-olds face situations which would challenge older, more settled adults. Their relationship is tested as they deal with discrimination, illnesses, a business, and parenting.
