Description

Laura Hoopes takes you along as she tries to enter science in the 1960's in the post-Sputnik science education frenzy, only to find doors closed to women.  She persists, makes a career of molecular gerontology and insists on making space for marriage and children in her life.  This inspiring read says, "Yes, you can," to women who have dreams of their own.

Story Behind The Book

Unbreakable Hostage is the product of a challenge from my publisher. Wanting to push me and help me grow as a writer, Vanilla Heart Publishing pushed me to try my hand at a suspense novel. This is the result of that challenge!

<p>&quot;I read this awhile ago and it sit fondly in my kindle awaiting my turn to read it one more time. I have read nearly all of Lauren's books and I always look forward to more books in the future. I highly recommend Lauren's book...it is a thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout your read.&quot; - Laura Badmone</p>
