ONLY LOVE CAN REDEEM THE PAIN
Three generations of brave and beautiful women inhabit the twisted world of Flame Island. The women share their genes, their pain, and a predilection for selecting the wrong men. The deepest secrets of their hearts are revealed as an emotional and searching journey follows Caitlin, Kathleen, and Serena from a rundown Brooklyn brownstone to the tumultuous streets of Hell's Kitchen, and ultimately to a grand bay front Miami Beach mansion. The image is picture perfect, but the reality is shattered—and even a rich and famous star remains targeted by fate and ghosts from the past. Is the pattern of tragedy, conflict, and anger imprinted forever in their DNA? Can the brutal cycle be broken? Can it be replaced by forgiveness, love, and redemption? As all three will discover, only love can redeem the pain.
“Ellen Frazer-Jameson’s lush, beautifully crafted plot is alive with visual imagery, unforgettable characters, and an inspired ending. A mesmerizing novel.”
—Edna Buchanan, Pulitzer-prize-winning author and Miami’s “Queen of Crime

Author review: It was a positive and enriching experience to work with Tania. Her work was skillful and the translation of Flame Island into Portuguese enabled the novel to appeal to the Portuguese readership while remaining authentic to the original. Tania met all time targets and her communication was always thoughtful and considered. I very much enjoyed working with this first class translator so much so that we re already about to undertake a translation of another of my novels. Five star service. Ellen FJ |

Author review: An excellent translation capturing the genre and essence of the original novel. The translator was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. He tackled the project with a genuine interest in revealing the true narrative of this novel and its many Spanish characters and elements. His work was professional and authoritative and I certainly highly recommend him to others for an authentic translation of their books. He completed the project in a most efficient timeframe and facilitated ease of communication. We are now published and I hope to have an opportunity to work with him again. |
