Where the Heart LivesA Milford-Haven Novel (Book 2)
By Mara Purl
Where the Heart Lives tracks wildlife artist Miranda Jones as she travels the California coastal map. From her home town of Milford-Haven on the Central Coast, she drives south to the Palos Verdes Peninsula, then into the heart of Hollywood, then across the L.A. basin, over its adjacent mountain range and into the Mojave Desert.
Along the way, her adventures include visits to see
the wildlife she’ll shortly be painting: the gray whales on their migration and
the big cats at the Feline Conservation Center in its isolated desert location.
And in the heart of the city, she’s invited—by the interesting man she’s
starting to date—to the historic Hollywood Bowl to get a backstage glimpse of a
major rock concert by the Doobie Brothers.
Thrilling though these
adventures are, they serve as the legend to her emotional map. Having left the
relative security of her privileged, city life and ventured forth to create a
new life in her small town of artists and entrepreneurs, she’s remapping
priorities and consulting her heart more than her head as to what she’s doing
and where she is in her life.

| Free Prequel to Where the Heart Lives |
These in turn are questions the
reader herself is invited to consider. Where does our heart live? In her heart
of hearts, where would we choose to live?
The novel is introduced by a free short-story prequel, When Whales Watch,
that takes Miranda on a whale-watching trip with most unusual results.
Book one of Purl’s series, What the Heart Knows, just won gold at the USA
Book News’ Best Book Awards, and won the gold Indie Excellence Award. It became
Purl’s first best-seller in May 2012. Mara recently completed a book tour
through Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and California, and while in New Mexico
was a panelist at this year's Women Writing the West annual conference.
