A lifelong love of words led Laurie Prince to her career as a writer and an editor, a teacher and a tutor. She’s edited and written for local and regional magazines, covering topics ranging from education and real estate to interior design and gardens, and taught at Central Piedmont Community College.

And now, Laurie Prince adds “novelist” to her titles. A tattered scrapbook, compiled by a grandmother she never knew, began to tell her a story. Inspired by the photographs inside, Laurie began to write a novel about a young American couple living in Argentina in 1929.
