Always books. Never boring.

Amazon Publishing

It’s been thirteen years since doctors declared Libby Ross-Velasquez a goner. Yet here she is—cancer free. So why doesn’t she feel more alive? When her forced cheer isn’t enough to keep her family from catching her blahs, Libby decides to fly them all to Vieques, the Puerto Rican island where she and her husband fell in love. When a tropical storm heads their way, Libby can’t see that the worst disaster they’ve faced may be a blessing in disguise. But first, they have to get through it. Read Don’t Make Me Turn This Life Around by Camille Pagán.
