Whenever we visit new places, we find something special that makes us want to come back, like the food, scenery, or people. In my early twenties, I took my first flight on a big plane from Rio, Brazil to Texas, USA. I was there for an important course, hoping to get a job with an international company. When I landed in Dallas, I was amazed by the tall buildings, huge trucks, and large malls, where I planned to spend my free time since I didn’t have a car! Being in a new country felt like a different world, even though…

Welcome to The RV Book Fair! C.J. can you tell me about your latest book and what inspired you to write it? My husband and I wrote a military psychological thriller due at the year’s end. The title is 48 hours to home. We worked on it for almost three years because we wanted to get it just right.
