ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Genevieve (Gen) LaGreca
writes novels with innovative plots, strong romance, and themes that glorify
individual freedom and independence.
Gen's debut novel
is
Noble Vision
. This romantic medical thriller won two important
national literary awards. It was a
Foreword
magazine Book of the Year
Finalist. It was also a finalist in the
Writer's Digest
International
Book Awards contest—one of only six picks honoring general fiction published by
independent presses.
Noble Vision
garnered praise from magazine magnate
Steve Forbes, Nobel laureate Milton Friedman, syndicated columnist Walter E.
Williams, and other influential thinkers. Gen also wrote the screenplay for

Vision

Showing her
virtuosity across genre lines, Gen's second offering is the historical novel
A
Dream of Daring
. This antebellum murder mystery took five book awards,
including the celebrated
Foreword
Book of the Year.
In addition to
fiction, Gen also writes social and political commentaries, which have appeared
in
Forbes

Prior to fiction
writing, Gen worked as a pharmaceutical chemist, business consultant, and
corporate writer. She holds an undergraduate degree in chemistry from Polytechnic
Institute of New York and a graduate degree in philosophy from Columbia
University.
Her variety of
life experiences—in science and business, as well as in philosophy and
writing—brings vibrant characters, urgent issues, thematic depth, and an
outside-the-box approach to Gen's novels. Their sweeping themes of
self-sovereignty and the triumph of the individual attract thoughtful readers
across genre lines.

Booklist
“Throughout the narrative, LaGreca masterfully creates
metaphors to explore her key themes. . . .
A Dream of Daring
is
suspenseful. The crime at the center of the narrative will keep the reader
guessing until the final revelation. . . . LaGreca's exploration of how people

generations.”

“Old ways do not fade into the night quietly.
A Dream of
Daring
is a novel set on the dawn of the industrial revolution. Tom
Edmunton builds a proto-tractor, and tries to bring a world of change about
Louisiana with his invention. But the whiplash is hard, as a loved one is
killed and his invention is stolen. [As Tom is] faced with a crossroads and the
charms of multiple women,
A Dream of Daring
is an enticing blend of
mystery and romance, much recommended reading.”
