Book Recommendation

Check out the new book, Games of the Heart, by Eva Shaw.  It came about after Eva read an article in the San Diego Union Tribune about black market adoption schemes where profit-hungry companies sold "return" policies to adoptive parents.  These unscrupulous companies were "selling" toddlers to prospective parents without disclosing their hidden and heartbreaking mental challenges to cash in on the exorbitant return option and she couldn't get it out of her head or her heart.

Then she learned about the squalor found in many eastern European orphanage and women kept as sex slaves to produce "made-to-order" babies sold to Americans. "Sure I could have written an article about the crimes, but I wanted to show the faces and hearts involved," says the author.  "A novel with plenty of mystery and a quirky protagonist that could me smile became the vehicle of choice."

The ebook is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble and iTunes.  And it'll be in print in late September.  More on www.evashaw.com.
