Julie, a Time to Live

You will have pity from your first encounter with Julie. Pity for the young woman ostracized from her family; gang raped and left for dead. Then her fear will capture you as she struggles to stay alive as the same gang repeatedly attacks. Against all odds, she matures into a strong and capable young woman eager to make her own way in life. Her desire for love is out-weighed by her conviction that she must make her own decisions . . .. Then they strike again. The pages turn easily, and you find yourself engulfed in Julie's time to live.

She is retired and lives with her husband of forty-six years in the high desert of California.
