About the Book

Our Felicity is a story of discovery, forgiveness, love, and becoming a family. It is told in the present and retold from the past by the two people whose lives are all about Felicity. Synopsis: When Mich Burnetti opens his door, he's sure the young girl on the other side is there by mistake. After all, he already bought cookies from the neighborhood Girl Scouts. But when the girl asks for him by his full name, a name few people ever heard, he's sure her visit is just a prank set up by his friends. The almost 14-year-old Felicity then asks him if he remembers Elyse, a girl he met in Venice, Italy 14 years earlier when he was studying abroad. Mich not only remembers her, but sees his entire life in terms of that girl: before Elyse, with Elyse, and after Elyse. Mich, an architect, was a rising star when he met Elyse, a student of art. Their playful banter, great conversations, and common likes and aspirations made them a perfect match. Everything they shared was perfect, and one day Elyse left; she disappeared leaving nothing except for an unfinished canvas, the only piece she ever painted that Mich didn't like. In Our Felicity Elyse and Mich share their stories going back and forth between Venice, where they met and the present, while Mich learns to be a dad to the teenage girl he just met. Through it all Mich has to accept Elyse back into his life for their daughter's sake. Elyse has to find a way to make Mich understand why she left him, and Mich struggles to comprehend how he can hate someone he still loves. But more importantly, and if he's to move forward, Mich has to find a way to forgive Elyse, or at least accept his fate after she stole 14 years of his daughter's life. The common denominators for Mich and Elyse are Felicity (their daughter), the love they'll always share, and a desire to understand what happened and make things right. Told with emotion, insight, and humor, Our Felicity is an exercise of introspection, told in a conversational way.
About the Author: Bria Daly is a pen name I created from the names of the most important people in my life: my husband and my two children. I was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina and I moved to the United States when I was very young. Years later I married a U.S. military man. My husband's career took us to wonderful places around the globe. We've lived in Japan, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Honduras, and seven U.S. states. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to see and experience different worlds and cultures. My experiences, the people I've met, and the places I've been, have made me the person I am today. I am an advocate and defender of children, animals, the elderly, and disabled. I have a voice and will use it to speak up for those who, for whatever reason, cannot use their own. That's all there is on me in a nutshell, so if my bio hasn't completely put you to sleep, take a seat, kick off your shoes, get some coffee, tea or a glass of wine (I'm not judging) and relax. Amazon set this up so we could meet and learn from one another. You know about me, now I want to hear about you. This year I published two series and two stand-alone books, and I'm working on several other projects at once: ) I love to write. I really do. So chill, enjoy reading, and please share your thoughts with me. If you're interested in reading more of my work, let me know, I want to know what works for you. What made your pulse beat faster, and what made you laugh. Make it constructive and we'll find out where these stories take us . Thank you for reading, Bria
