Ann Roth

Every woman needs her own rainy day fund. That's what two women in Ann Roth's debut single title, April's ANOTHER LIFE, learn when they find out in a hospital emergency room that they have been married to the same man, and he's just died, leaving them and their daughters in dire financial straits.

On Ann's website, you'll find her ten tips for financial independence every woman (including her characters!) should know. One is to put aside money that is yours and yours alone. Toward this goal, Ann will send the winner in her Another Life contest a $50 U.S. Savings Bond --and an early galley of this novel that celebrates the resilience of women and the ability to survive against all odds.

ANOTHER LIFE is "an unforgettable story, a celebration of the power of forgiveness and the strength of a woman's heart." Susan Wiggs, New York Times bestselling author
