FINDING AMY
WINNER OF THE 2011 FWA BOOK OF THE YEAR AWARD . In the summer of 1993, Amy kissed her widowed mother goodbye and set out to see the world before starting college. No arguments, no troubles, no warning for her mother, Cathy, that she would never see her again. After fifteen years, Cathy begins her search to find her daughter, no matter what. Her journey takes her from Florida to the streets of Philadelphia and beyond. A probing tale of God's timing and the unique relationship between mothers and daughters.
FORGIVEN
In the sleepy town of Gadara, Florida, a divorced mother, her college-aged pregnant daughter, an elderly gentleman and a confused young man all question their faith as they struggle with a diverse set of challenges. Only a decades-old secret can bring healing and answers for them, but can such a long-hidden secret be revealed other than through Divine Revelation? Forgiven is a haunting tale of mystery, faith and the intertwining of lives as each character seeks answers from God.

About Me
- Sunny Serafino
- Avon Park, Florida, United States
- I grew up in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, later moving to Florida. I am proud to say I'm an award-winning author, something I dreamed of my entire adult life. Reading was a major part of my life no matter what else was happening. I attended Moravian College in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and Indian River Community College in Fort Pierce, Florida but the important things in life were learned through experience. I am a member of the National League of American Pen Women and a past president of that organization. I also belong to Florida Writer Association and found that organization very helpful. I have held workshops throughout the state of Florida on creative writing, how to write memoirs. Recently I was privileged to teach creative writing at South Florida Community College. I belong to the Heartland Cultural Alliance and work with the Friends of the Sebring Library. Helping budding authors is a reward I enjoy.
