ABOUT THE THREE WS:
Three authors walk into a bar…. Many years ago, at a writers’ conference, Beatriz Williams, Lauren Willig, and Karen White (Team W) decided that if they wanted their publishers to pay for their girls’ trip (and bar bill) all they needed to do was write a book together. That bar bill was a powerful motivation, but when they sat down together to plot that first book, they discovered something even more powerful: a deep sisterhood and writing synergy that has led to the production of four novels together, all of them acclaimed by critics as “seamless”. They call their collective writing brain the “Unibrain.” Readers call it magic.
Their latest book, THE LOST SUMMERS OF NEWPORT, explores the lives of three women in three eras, all connected to the same historic Newport manor and its legacy of family secrets from its Gilded Age heyday to the restoration movement of the 1950s to a present day mansion makeover reality show….
