Israeli
Native Taps Life's Work as a Nurse During War Time in an Authentic
Novel, Pinnacle Lust.
Atlanta,
Georgia, USA (January 15, 2015) -- Atlanta resident, Michelle
Dim-St. Pierre, author of Pinnacle Lust will be a
special guest at a book signing hosted by Bookmiser Book Store in
Roswell, GA on January 31, 2015 from 11:30am to 1:30pm. (Bookmiser is
located at 4651 Sandy Plains Rd. Roswell, GA 30075)
A
native of Israel and a skilled medical professional, Michelle Dim-St.
Pierre left her homeland for America to further her career in
nursing, recently finding herself giving up her lifetime career to
write her first novel, a stirring and unforgettable story of romance
and intrigue.
Pinnacle
Lust is scheduled to be released this month. This story takes
place in Israel during Operation Desert Storm, where an illicit
affair leads to great love, betrayal and an unregretful commitment.
Sharon
Lapidot, is a beautiful young nurse who falls deeper and deeper into
an affair with a married doctor. Her world is shattered by powerful
and eroding mistakes, but her courage leads her to an unregretful
commitment in a land far from home. It is only eighteen years later
when her daughter discovers that the man who raised her is not her
biological father.
In
explaining her career shift from nurse to writer, Dim-St. Pierre
says, "The nurse in me is sealed in my heart-it is me. I believe
that the right time to change careers is when you reach the pinnacle.
In my case it was even better, my nursing career inspired me to
write."
The
final push to write Pinnacle Lust came when the author
was vacationing in Hawaii. "I wanted to read something that felt
authentic and real... not a Cinderella story... I wanted more of a
resemblance to real life in my reading material, so I decided to try
my hand at writing such a story."
Besides
the affair between nurse and doctor, Pinnacle Lust
deals with:
•
The
power of love in a woman's life and the resilience of the human
spirit.
•
The
real, raw emotions of an escalating affair - the duality of love and
hate, lust and anger.
•
The
culture in Israel and how the Jewish religion factors into that with
the dichotomy of the religious and the secular Jews.
•
The
effect of Operation Desert Storm on everyday life in Israel.
Dim-St.
Pierre's nursing career, alongside her personal experience of having
lived in Israel during Operation Desert Storm, is reflected in her
writing.
Michelle
wove many of those firsthand experiences into Pinnacle Lust
which she says steers the reader to this truth: "Life doesn't
always work out the way you want it to, but the human spirit is
resilient and can survive and flourish given enough time. That love
outlasts everything."
