ABOUT "FROSTED GLASS":
A painful break-up/break-down chases high-tech marketing wiz Sandy
Lowiltry from her Silicon Valley home. She comes to rest on the
Oregon Coast, where she seeks solace in the opera-themed sanctuary
of the Hotel Bel Canto and the arms of a handsome eccentric who
spends his days combing the beach for sea glass.
Sandy soon learns what the tourist ladies already know – it's
easy to fall for Frosted Glass Man. Besides great sex and alarmingly
intricate campsite cuisine, Frosty offers do-it-yourself mythologies
that would melt even the coldest heart. But will it be enough to
quiet the whisper of ambition, the voice inside Sandy’s head
that chides her for settling? Will she really leave behind Silicon
Valley for love in such a strange package? PRAISE FOR "FROSTED GLASS":
“Beneath the surface of Michael Vaughn's wry humor lies
an extraordinary myth, and a most unlikely tale of discovery and
passion. Set against the backdrop of the Oregon seashore, Vaughn
leads us from opera to ocean in a curious and engaging journey.
A magical stranger and a coastline filled with promises fuse beautifully
to make FROSTED GLASS a shimmering fable, as delicate and whimsical
as a handful of glass.”
– Debra Bokur, Many Mountains Moving literary journal
“A breezy, richly-textured romp through the inner circuitry
of a postmodern heroine. Tales of the City meets Comedy of Errors.”
– Christina Waters, PhD, Metro Newspapers (San Jose)
