About the
Author:
I'm a stay-at-home mom of three of the CRAZIEST boys ever. And I love
them to bits. I'm also a wife to a wonderful man I met when I was 17. He went
to a different High School than I did but we both worked at McDonald's. It was
before texting and cell phones so we'd write notes at school and exchange them
at work. We'd also talk to each other over the drive-thru headsets. Then he
told me he had a picture he had drawn for art class long before he knew me that
his cousin pointed out looked just like me. The picture went missing when we
got married and moved into our first home together. This was kind of the
inspiration for The Earth Painter.
I have a degree in Journalism and Marketing which I have never used
because I've been home with my boys. Then one day my man sent me to the local
book store for a day to myself. I picked up Twilight by Stephenie Meyer and my
life changed. I remembered being 17. I remembered falling in love. But most of
all I remembered ME. I'd become "Mommy" and forgotten all about
Melissa, the girl who dreamed of being a writer, but suddenly I remembered and
the writing started. And It hasn't stopped.

Book Review:
When I finished reading book 1 in
this series I cried and anxiously waited for book 2. When I finished reading book 2, I gave a
happy, all-is-right-with-the-world sigh.
I loved book 1, but book 2 was so much better.
While “The Man Painter” could probably
be read alone, it will make much more sense if read following book 1, “The
Earth Painter.” In “The Man Painter”
Holly and Theo are reunited, but happily-ever-after doesn’t appear to be
possible. Several roadblocks to their
happiness pop up, including all those normal human issues like pride, fear,
anger, and left-over childhood issues (at least for Holly).
Holly is also exposed to the ugly
truth about her mother, which inadvertently frees her from a life-long need for
love and acceptance from her mother.
I give this book 5out of 5 clods/
