Biographie de l'auteur

Luann Puglisi Kenmore grew up in a small-savy town on the eastern end of Long Island; known as the Hamptons. Her itinerary did not include the crushing blow she survived when her Mafia connected father disappeared in 1980; after his arrest pending a lengthy sting operation. The whirlwind of fear and tension she experienced having the FBI, CIA, and Mafia officianados stalking her led her to flee to the west coast where she transformed the once exciting albeit scary life of a Mafia daughter- to a suburban wife, mommy, fitness trainer and writer. Look for her next novel, She's No Pocohontas.
