Immersed in Paradise (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781440187643)

Immersed in Paradise is the story of a beautiful young woman torn between love and an ambition to serve humanity. Her relationship with her high school sweet heart had endured, even though they were separated during college, and, after graduation three months before September 11, 2001, they each found jobs in law enforcement in Washington. All went well for two years, until Chuck accepted an appointment to become a Federal Agent at Fort Story. Reluctant to be separated, but not ready for marriage, she requested a transfer to work in Norfolk, and secured unpaid leave to attend a language school in Cost a Rica to think things over during his training.

While in Central America, she traveled extensively, bonded with her host family, and disappointed several male admirers. She worked with disadvanted children, sometimes with heart-rending results, and was overwhelmed by the impact of poverty on them, and those she saw while traveling. When her visa expired, she returned home with a greater appreciation of her life, and would forever cherish her memories of the surrogate family of charismatic Italians who had taken her into their home and their hearts!
