How can you find love when you don't know what it looks like?Naked in the Rain is the story of 47-year old widow, Norah Edwards, who meets 23-year old James Ross in a bar in Montauk, New York, one lonely day in September. Norah takes James home, and he soon discovers that she has as many secrets in her past as she does scars on her back. Twist and turns abound, each passage building to a surprising crescendo in this sexy novel. James helps Norah pick up the pieces of her life as she aids him in finding a direction of his own. "Debra Markowitz may just be the Jacqueline Susann of her generation. While her NAKED IN THE RAIN revolves around more simple lives than the entertainment industry's movers and shakers depicted in Susann tomes, Markowitz is no less sexy, bringing characters to life with a sensual style that almost makes you blush while reading. She doesn't foresake great storytelling for sex, but incorporates the two in such a compelling way that the phrase page-turner seems to take on new meaning." Bill Lieberman, In Touch Magazine"This is a riveting first novel, a story of love and betrayal, of survival and triumph. Naked in the Rain is an inspirational story, at once triumphant and penetrating." Bruce Feinberg, BMF StudioThis book was a surprise and a pleasure to read. Debra Markowitz crafted a very strong heroine in Norah, who practically sets the pages on fire with her sensuality. I expected your typical romance, but this was so much more and I found myself reading it very late into the night. I can't wait to see what Debra has in store for her readers next!

On the brink of the Civil War that set brother against brother, a stranger arrives in the Shenandoah Valley and promises to change young Sarah Worthington's life, forever. Caleb Thompson, a charismatic craftsman from Northern Pennsylvania, defies convention in his pursuit of the strong-willed Sarah. His ultimate partnership with her leads to their harboring runaway slaves.Caleb teaches Sarah about physical and intellectual love, as well as how to win at poker and defend herself with a rifle-activities generally forbidden for women.When Caleb's time comes to fight for the North, Sarah refuses to let him go. She has him forge a promise made in hell, for which there is a price. Enter into their lives, Robert Hennessy, whose interest in Sarah is less than pure and whose plans are less than honorable.Sarah and Caleb is the story of young love, innocence, freedom and survival-a tale where life and death, good and evil and timeless love exist side by side.In this descriptive novel, one can see and smell the life and times before and during the onset of the Civil War, which features characters so real, you'll feel as though you love-and hate-right alongside them. Sarah and Caleb is every bit as sensual and evocative as Markowitz' Naked in the Rain, and with villains just as despicable.This page-turner will keep your attention from breakfast until after you've had your midnight snack-and have you thinking about it for weeks.
