Story Behind The Book
Twenty-two-year-old super model Rena Hilst is living her dream as one of the fashion industry's top talents, in passionate love with her forty-three-year-old manager at Moonglow Model Management, Shell Dawes. From the outside, no cracks in the crystal of their relationship are apparent save for something on Rena's part: Other women. Rena never hunts for people to cheat with but being far away from home on jobs with such beautiful, interesting people occasionally leads her to party her way into another girl's bed. She knows better than to sleep around but she honestly feels she cares for the girls with whom she is unfaithful. It isn't love, just caring -- nothing compared to how she feels for Shell. Rena feels fortunate to have found her romantic soul mate at such a young age. In fact, Rena repeatedly promises herself to stop straying on Shell. Shell always chalks Rena's flings up to necessary life experience for someone so young and free-spirited. She believes that nothing -- especially a few meaningless affairs -- could rupture their bond. However, when one of Rena's flings hits too close to home, the crystal cracks. Something about it doesn't seem so meaningless. Confused, Shell wonders if she is to blame for tolerating Rena's horseplay for so long. For the first time in their four-year relationship, Shell questions the promise of happily-ever-after. Together, they must finally confront the skeletons that have hung in their closet for far too long. Set against the eclectic fictional cities of Moonglow, USA, and Utsukushisa, Japan, MOONGLOW will titillate your imagination, strum your heartstrings and prove that -- no matter what era we live in -- love is our strongest ally.
