About the Author: Born and raised in the Northwest, near Portland Oregon, Carolena Torres is wife and mother. Married for forty years to her husband of Mexican-American heritage, the charm of colorful Mexico and the pursuit of family ties have led them to Mexico more than thirty times. Enchanted by the customs and weather they return each year, looking forward to the Lake Chapala Writers conference and the reunion of their many treasured friends. The idea and the theme of the story in her first book, "DUST ON THEIR HEARTS" began during a Sunday Brunch in their favorite boutique hotel at the edge of Lake Chapala, Mexico, and grew from the influence of those friends and fellow writers. Her second book, "CASTLES BY THE LAKE", a continuation of the story, adds new and appealing characters.
