Right?!? Wouldn’t it make life so much simpler—and so much more complicated—if we could identify our soul mates with a single touch? I loved the concept and it was the springboard for the entire series. I always try to incorporate just a touch of fantasy in all my books. To my delight, readers seem to identify with the idea, so thanks to all of you who fell in love with both the Dantes and The Inferno!Can you tell us one interesting detail about this particular book?
Sure! I guess the most significant detail I incorporated in this story is Primo Dante, the family patriarch. You see, I grew up without grandfathers. Sadly, they both died before I was born. So I never knew the joy or love of a grandfather. Since I couldn’t have one in real life, I infused all of my love and longing in Primo and invented someone I consider the perfect patriarch.Can you tell me what order to read the books?
