10^th Annual RPLA Book of the Year.

In the summer of 1993, Amy kissed her widowed mother goodbye and set out to see the world before starting art school in the fall. No arguments, no troubles, no warning for her mother, Cathy, that she would never see her again.

One month turns into two, and one year into fifteen. Cathy receives three brief postcards and nothing more. What has become of her daughter? When does not knowing become more unbearable than discovering the truth? Cathy sets out to find where her daughter is even if her daughter doesn’t wish to be found.

Her journey takes her from her comfortable Florida home to the streets of Philadelphia. Her hired private investigator becomes much more than a partner in the search; and following Amy’s trail brings them to a dramatic conclusion where Cathy will need the strength of her new found love.

Sunny Serafino weaves a probing tale of God’s timing and the unique relationship between mothers and daughters in this winner of the 10th annual Royal Palm Literary Awards Book of the Year (then unpublished).

In a drought filled land, Erik Winters faces the desert aridness of his own existence. Abandoned by his mother, orphaned when his father dies, Erik spends his days on his uncle’s farm working a land as dry and unyielding as his life. At night he dreams of a world far away from the endless toil of the fields. He hopes for a family, longs for a future and prays for a miracle.

When in a moment of desperation he finds Christ, he’s certain that his circumstances will change. At first, it seems as though they might. He finds a girl he can love and works toward a future that will take him from the land of drought to the land of plenty. When compounding tragedies close every door to him, Erik can not but question God’s purpose for his life… until he begins to see the Kingdom Land that was before him all along.
