Synopsis

The Scarlet Thread is a true story of a young woman tangled in the scarlet thread of love and destiny. She was fated to pay a high price for that love when her child and lover were torn from her arms. A narcissistic mother, the prejudice of her true love's father, as well as the shady adoption system of the 1960s were all instrumental in separating the three of them. Years later, while searching for her child, who was lost in the sealed paperwork of adoption, her true love returns after a forty-year sabbatical, setting her on an uncharted, late-in-life journey.

About this title

About the Author

Yvonne Curri was born and raised in Upstate New York, and her youthful summers were spent with her family on the St. Lawrence River. As an adult, she lived for a few years in the Adirondacks until she moved to Michigan at the age of fifty and, later, to the panhandle of Florida. As a girl, Yvonne was quiet and introverted, finding comfort in reading Longfellow and Byron. In her teens she met a young man who recognized her talent as a poet and encouraged her writing. It was then that she understood pen and paper to be her true medium for communication with the world. At the age of sixty, she threw caution to the wind and ran away from home to concentrate on what she loved most-writing. Besides writing, Yvonne is an accomplished astrologer of over thirty years, spending her time teaching and life coaching. After four years and a great deal of sacrifice, she is now publishing her first book, "The Scarlet Thread" and as her son pointed out, "Sometimes, following your dreams takes great sacrifice"
