Synopsis

She does it again! In her sophomore effort, Skiba delivers a fascinating, tug-at-your-heartstrings story. David and Cassandra grab you from the first page and refuse to let you go until you find out if they get their happily ever after. Written against the backdrop of the Iraqi war, their love story is riddled with the pain and terror of living in the middle of so much violence. Skiba balances the beauty of love with the horrors of war without compromising either. A World Apart gets an A+ in my book.===Cindy C Bennett, Author of Geek Girl Without taking away from the gravity of the Iraq war, A World Apart will get you laugh and cry at once. Communication between a man and a woman has always been tricky even when they do speak the same language. Imagine what happens when English is not one's native tongue. It would make you laugh out loud. The amount of drama and heartbreak will keep you up at night and you better keep a box of tissues next to you--you'll need it. A true piece of art, give it a chance you won't regret it.===Treasure Books Club, beta-reader
