The book: Aida Benedetto is a successful thirty-year-old food writer. She has an on-again, off-again boyfriend and an Italian-American family with endless expectations and relentless traditions. Birch McFarland, who is pushing for on-again status, was also raised by a strict Catholic father and understands Aida's sense of guilt as well as her duty to a faith she's silently questioned for years. When mutual domestic conflicts dissolve the lingering web between the couple and their families, Aida and Birch attempt to fashion new versions of faith and family.
The author: Catherine DiMercurio Dominic lives with her husband David and their children, Margaret and Grant, in Ferndale, Michigan.
