Mavis
Applewater was born in Massachusetts in 1962. As a child, she
was an avid reader. Later, she honed her creative side majoring in Theatre
at Salem State College. While supporting herself and waiting for her big
break, she became a "resident" and well-known bartender at a nightclub in
Cambridge, MA. Mavis has done several commercials and lots of extra work, but her creative juices were still flowing, so she turned to another one of her hidden talents: writing. These efforts culminated in several manuscripts, the latest of which is Mavis Bites. Currently, Mavis lives in Massachusetts with her long-term partner.

Then the Swenson twins sweep into town in their matching Chevy Bel Air convertibles. Tall, blonde, and gorgeous, the twins are quickly accepted into the cheerleading squad, and Ellen's plan begins to unravel.

But malicious forces are at work in the Swenson family, and Ginny, their scapegoat, is convicted of crimes she didn't commit and sent to prison. Determined to prove her lover's innocence, Ellen investigates the case even as she completes her pre-law studies and enters law school. By the time
Ginny is released from prison, she and Ellen have grown apart. They're
still attracted to one another, but neither is confident of the other's
feelings. Are they really in love, or are they just very good friends?
Against the turbulent, psychedelic backdrop of the Sixties, Ellen and
Ginny drift in and out of each other's lives as they strive for the courage
to reveal their hearts. |
