Azorean Dreams by Sue Fagalde Lick
Newspaper reporter Chelsea Faust spends most of her spare time in the darkroom and runs marathons for fun. She's working for a small weekly newspaper now, but plans to move up. At 28, she lives alone and lets no one tell her what to do. When she meets Simao Freitas, a recent Portuguese immigrant, while on assignment in San Jose's Little Portugal, the attraction is instant. However, any chance at a future together appears to be doomed as Simao battles memories of a painful loss while Chelsea pursues a news story headlong into a situation that could cost her life.
Lick, Sue Fagalde: - Having escaped the newspaper business in Silicon Valley, Sue Fagalde Lick now lives on the Oregon coast, where she writes, does the singer-songwriter thing, walks her dog, and talks to herself. Her day job-until her pastor reads this book and excommunicates her-is directing the church choir at Sacred Heart Church in Newport. This job requires her to play the piano, sing, and direct the choir at the same time, so God should forgive a few wrong notes. A native San Josean who earned a degree in journalism so she could make a living, she earned her MFA in creative writing at Antioch University at the age of 51. Sue has published her poetry and prose in various literary journals and come in second in more contests than she can count. Her previous books of prose include Stories Grandma Never Told: Portuguese Women in California, Childless by Marriage, and Up Beaver Creek. Last year, she published her first poetry chapbook, Gravel Road Ahead, which tells the story of her journey with her late husband Fred through Alzheimer's disease. She blogs at www.childlessbymarriage.com and www.unleashedinoregon.com. Visit her website at www.suelick.com.
