Spotlight: Twelve Months

  • Guest Author

Not very long ago I read a great review at CMash Reads for Twelve Months. While it’s not usually my type of read, she really seemed to enjoy it. Now this book is VERY high on my tbr list.

What’s high in your list – and why?

Brief Synopsis:

Don DiMarco has a very good life – a family he loves, a comfortable lifestyle, passions and interests that keep him amused. He also thought he had time, but that turned out not to be the case. Faced with news that might have immediately felled most, Don now wonders if he has time enough. Time enough to show his wife the romance he didn’t always lavish on her. Time enough to live out his most ambitious fantasies. Time enough to close the circle on some of his most aching unresolved relationships. Summoning an inner strength he barely realized he possessed, Don sets off to prove that twelve months is time enough to live a life in full. A glorious celebration of each and every moment that we’re given here on Earth, as well as the eternal bonds that we all share, Twelve Months is a stirring testament to the power of the human spirit.

Author Bio:

    Thanks for the shout out. I loved this book. Poignant and thought provoking. One of those books that stay with you long after you finish reading it. I have to admit, I am anxiously waiting for his next book.
