Patricia Mann Releases Debut Novel Is This All There Is
on January 3, 2013.
What happens when a married professor is tempted to risk losing her family and career for a passionate fling with a former student?
Los Angeles Times freelance writer Michelle Hoffman says, “Honest and moving, Mann’s work is a touching snapshot of middle-America today, a compelling story about one woman’s struggle to keep up appearances while coming undone.”
San Diego, CA— December 19, 2012 — Patricia Mann is happy to announce the release of her debut novel from Mannequin Vanity Publishing, Is This All There Is. The book will be available in print and e-book on January 3, 2013 through Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
Is This All There Is contains 206 pages of an everyday woman’s real life conflicts, rewards and temptations as she struggles to navigate her responsibilities and desires as a woman, a wife, a mother and a professor.
Beth Thomas has the perfect life. At thirty-five, she’s married to her college sweetheart, has two adorable kids, and teaches part time at the local university. But when a friend persuades Beth to go dancing on a rare night out, a chance meeting with twenty-one year old Dave, one of her former students, changes the course of her life. Loud music, too much to drink, and the thrill of feeling young again leads to an unforgettable kiss that was never supposed to happen. As she tries to put the memory behind her, Dave’s pursuit leaves Beth torn between what her mind says is right and what her heart and body crave.
