A Special Gift For The Women In Your Life
I often hear from women who've given Veil of Roses as gifts
to their daughters, moms, sisters and friends. Thank you!
And some of my most treasured correspondence is from women
who've received it as a gift after surgery. The story's message
-- if you have the courage to make the hard choices in life,
you just might get your chance at happiness -- resonates with
women of all ages.
If you'd like to make your gift-giving extra special, I can
inscribe a personal message to the book's recipient. Once
you place your order, there will be a spot to indicate what
you'd like my message to say. I'll ship it to you or directly
to whichever address you prefer.
Order one book at a time or stock up to give Veil of Roses
throughout the year -- it makes a very thoughtful holiday,
birthday, and after-surgery recovery gift. Each copy is $15,
which includes shipping via priority mail.
Warmly,
Laura

Dear Mrs. Fitzgerald.......I was given your book as
a "recovery gift" about a week ago.....(I
had a mastectomy in Sept.).......I picked it up on Monday,
and read a few pages, and this morning at 2:00 when
it became obvious that the sandman had deserted me once
again, I opened it, and finished it this morning about
5:30......I am a voracious reader, and I don't remember
WHEN I have enjoyed a book this much........I laughed
out loud, and cried buckets!!!! You are a brilliant
writer......Congratulations, and PLEASE do another one!!!!!!
Thank you for such a wonderful gift!!!!

| Laura,
I just finished your book -- I loved it. I
have been fighting cancer for 2 years and have read
many books. This is my favorite! At one point
in my treatment it was decided that I had to have a
bone marrow transplant. This meant I had to stay
in a hospital room for 30 days with special ventilation. My
first day out in the fresh air was so wonderful I cried. I
have related this marvelous sensation to Tami and the
day she was able to remove her veil and see the world. I
know it's not the same but I imagine the feeling must
be similar.
I am recommending this book to family and friends.
Thank you for writing it.

| Laura,
I received this book yesterday as a gift
from my boss
.I never read books. In fact,
I've been trying to read the same book for 2 years. I
got on a flight to Tennessee for work this morning
and started the book immediately. 4 hours later
I realized I had landed and not eaten breakfast or lunch.
I had a couple chapters left to read. I sat
on the airplane until everyone left and now Im waiting
for my associates in the airport and have finished
the novel. Imagine that...Cover to cover in 4.5
hours and haven't read a whole book in 5 years.
So... I guess what I'm trying to say is that you have
methodically depicted a general picture what its like
to be a Persian in America. I was born and raised
in the U.S. but still face many of the societal and
marital restrictions that your main character does
.I
want... this is a powerful way to start a sentence. Indeed,
if you have been raised in a traditional Persian home,
these two words never start a sentence. I can
personally attest to that. Figuring out what follows
those two words is my truly my current mission in life.
I can go on and on about your book but I wont. Amazing
read. Thank you!!

| Hello,
My name is Carlos and I recently got a copy of Veil
of Roses for my wife as random gift. Well, she started
to read it on Monday and is almost done with it now.
She NEVER put the book down! I even woke up to her reading
it in bed at 2 in the morning! Anyways, as you can tell
she is loving the book.
It makes me happy to be able to see her so intent and
happy. We are a new married couple and at times money
is a bit of a drag, so we dont always get to spend
it on what we want. Well, does anybody? She has had
some bad times and the book seemed to take her mind
of it and help her relax some. It's great to see
her smile all the way again.
My wife is one hell of great woman and I wish
I could give her the world and more. So I was more than
pleased when I saw her love for your book. I thought
that I should just let you know that your writing not
only made her happy, but me as well.
Thank you for the gift of joy that you have given my
wife.

Hello, I loved this book and was so sad to get to the
last page
.I am trying to decide who to pass Veil
of Roses to first, my mother or my grown daughters. My
daughters, Jeanna is 36 and Joni is 34, enjoy reading
but with children and work dont have as much
time as they would like to read. I will make sure
they have quiet time to enjoy this book.
Thank you so much for writing such a delightful book.
~ Linda
