Jean Reynolds Page, author of Leaving Before It's Over and Isabel Sharpe, author of Knit in Comfort
Boswell Book Company @ 2pm
Leaving Before It's Over is a deeply compelling novel that explores the true meaning of family. When Roy Vines married his wife, Rosalind, he traded his family and his inheritance for love-a painful choice that has blessed them with years of joy nestled in rural North Carolina with their beautiful daughters, sixteen-year-old Lola and little Janie Ray. But their happiness is threatened when Rosalind suddenly falls ill. Desperate to get her the help she needs, Roy does the one thing he swore he'd never do-turn to his heartless and bitter identical twin brother, Mont, for help. The price is steep-and includes opening their home to a teenage boy who believes Roy is the father who abandoned him.
Jean Reynolds Page is the author of The Last Summer of Her Other Life, The Space Between Before and After, A Blessed Event, and Accidental Happiness. She grew up in North Carolina and graduated with a degree in journalism from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She was a dance critic for more than ten years before turning full-time to fiction in 2001. In addition to North Carolina, she has lived in New York, Boston, Dallas, and Seattle. She and her family recently moved to Madison, Wisconsin.
Knit in Comfort is about the women of Comfort, North Carolina, who come together to knit and make lace-and find that the intricacies of both echo the complexities of their own lives. A story that combines the popular pastime of crafting and a richly realized cast of unforgettable characters, Knit in Comfort is a heartwarming tale of love and friendship. 
Isabel Sharpe is the author of As Good As It Got. In addition to her novels from Avon, she is a prolific writer of Harlequin romances, the most recent of which is Blaze #539 : Surprise Me. Sharpe lives in the Milwaukee area.
