MAKING HER DEBUT
Prosper in Love, by California-based magazine writer Deborah Michel, is about a marriage in trouble. The summary says: "Till temptation do us part... Theirs is a marriage in the best sense of the word. From the start, Jamie and Lynn Prosper were meant to be. The same people who nodded their heads approvingly at their engagement are now happy witnesses to their wedded bliss. But sometimes, even in the very best of marriages, all it takes is a mischievous outsider to bring the perfect couple toppling off the top of the cake... Jamie is a young lawyer who travels frequently but is devoted to Lynn. A young museum curator, Lynn doesn't even question the security of their rock-solid marriage. But when Lynn's old college friend turns up at a cocktail party, tiny chinks of their previously unassailable armour start to open up. Before either Lynn or Jamie realises what is happening, the young couple finds themselves divorcing. As they struggle to reverse the direction of events that seem to have spiralled out of control, will love be enough to make this marriage last?" Prosper in Love is out in May.
