Story Behind The Book
I The Jade Pendant is loosely based on a similar incident I experienced while vacationing in beautiful Zihuatanejo in the late 90's. Like Lydia, I too lost my business while enjoying the beauty that Mexico had to offer. There really was a Rodolfo and other colorful characters in the book and som (though not all) of the hilarious situations that Lydia found herself in really did happen. It will be up to the reader to decide what is fact and what is fiction. Either way I hope you enjoy reading my story as much as I had writing it.

I have been going to Zih for 11 years now, and you completely captured the way that I feel about the town. Every time I am there, I can't help but think what it would be like to live there, even part time. <br />Is this book true to life? Did you marry Rodolfo? What a great romance! <br />I can't believe it finished the book in one sitting, but I just couldn't put it down. Are you still in Zih? I would love to meet you when I'm there next February, if you are there.<br /><br />Thank you so much for the WONDERFUL book!<br /><br />Judy <br />Portland, OR<br /><br />I could not put the book downa nd stayed up all night to finish it.<br />Cathy,<br />Port Orchard Wa</span></p>
