Autorenporträt
Abbe Rolnick grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland. Her first major cultural jolt occurred at age fifteen when her family moved to Miami Beach, Florida. To find perspective, she climbed the only non-palm tree at her condo complex and wrote what she observed. History came alive with her exposure to Cuban culture. After attending Boston University, she lived in Puerto Rico, where she owned a bookstore. River of Angels flows from her experiences there and is the first novel in her Generations of Secrets series. The second novel in the series, Color of Lies, brings the reader to the Pacific Northwest, where she presently resides. Here she blends stories from island life with characters in Skagit Valley. Founding Stones, the third in the series, will be published in 2019 and continues with characters from her two previous novels. Her recent experiences with her husband's cancer inspired Cocoon of Cancer: An Invitation to Love Deeply (2016). It's a love story that shares intimate tips for caregivers and family. Tattle Tales: Essays and Stories Along the Way (2016) is a compilation of twenty years of writing. An avid world traveler, Abbe can be found with her husband, Jim, in Africa, Southeast Asia, South America, Sri Lanka, the Middle East, and other exotic countries when they aren't at their home amid twenty acres in Skagit Valley, Washington, or visiting with her grown children and grandkids.

She'd love it if you posted your reviews of her writings on Amazon and Goodreads. Spread the word virally and by word of mouth to all book lovers.
