About the Book

We learn who we are when we're pushed to our limits.

Federico Renard is a rising champion in the world of road cycling. Lately, his whole world is upside down: his fiancée has ceased all communication, his enigmatic former team captain has returned to the sport in a whirlwind of media attention, and now Federico no longer leads the team. All before the Tour d'Europa - the longest, hardest, and most rewarding cycling race in the world - has even gotten underway.

Abigail White is shooting the Tour, taking a mid-life stab at the photojournalism career she'd dreamed of before marrying. However her husband, Charles, is making the project anything but enjoyable. Worse yet, Abigail suspects the distance between them comes from his secret long-distance love affair with an associate back home in England.

When Federico comes to Abigail's assistance after a crash at a stage finish, the fleeting encounter is innocent enough. As time passes and chance keeps bringing them together, they find themselves struggling to resist the temptations the other provides. The cost could be too great - his place on the team and her marriage are both at risk - but it's difficult to hold back for the sake of coming out ahead.


About the Author: An aspiring writer from the age of eight, Kimberly began writing her first stories instead of paying attention in school. While her grades might have suffered, her imagination seldom did. She even managed to keep most of her stories together for years, then lost them after a move when she left a trunk full of papers behind. (She'd meant to go back and get them, but circumstances prevented her from doing so.) So, she started over again. And lost those, too. After a trip to England in 2002, Kimberly began work on A Marginal Life (Well-Lived), inspired by the music of Jarvis Cocker and Pulp. The novel was completed in 2003, and she plans major rewrites of the manuscript with hopes of publication sometime in the future. Also in 2003, Kimberly met and fell in love with an Italian accountant named Alessandro. She married him in 2004. This necessitated her arrival in Italy and she has lived there ever since. Not long after that she started working for language schools and writing blog entries for her family in the US to read, and new story ideas began to develop. Finally, in 2007, Kimberly began work on a new project, inspired by her love/hate relationship with her new home. The novel Ask Me if I'm Happy was completed in 2009. Ask Me if I'm Happy was first released November 15th, 2010 in the UK, and was re-released in the US on May 31st, 2011. Also in May of 2011, Kimberly published the novella "Alternate Rialto", a prequel to Ask Me if I'm Happy. Kimberly released her latest novel, 27 Stages, in April of 2013. On June 8th, 2013, 27 Stages was included in Podium Cafe's 101 on Tour 100 Books.
