The Art of Peeling an Orange

2015 Rainbow Awards Finalist; 2016 Golden Crown Literary Society and Lambda Awards nominee. When Carly Rosen is jilted on the eve of her wedding, she embarks on a startling journey of self-discovery. This gender-bending risqué retelling of the Greek myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, set in sizzling West Hollywood, echoes the ancient story of the lovers in the Underworld. Carly, a portrait artist with huge imagination, uses her art to charm her way into the life and inner circle of the alluring Anna Garibaldi, whose seductive and secretive underworld is nothing she had expected. She is doomed and she is blessed, and she doesn't know which she prefers.
