Nardi Point ... what's life all about anyway?

Nardi Point is the story of one successful career woman's quest for a soul-satisfying life and love.
 
 
Should the past make way for the present... Stylish brunette Laurinda Elliot is the type of accomplished business woman glossy magazines feature on their covers. Effectively managing a software product development team in Raleigh, North Carolina, her drive and savvy delivers all the perks: an upscale townhouse, a Porsche Boxter convertible and Eileen Fisher designer clothing. Yet she yearns emotionally for a different success—one that brings her surprising first time experience with vulnerability.
 
Her uber software code developer partner, Dan Riser, can't buy into the new direction she's leading them, but goes along to keep the peace, and more importantly, beautiful Laurinda. Or the present make way for the past—and love... When prehistoric, Native American pottery artifacts are discovered, the ancient past collides with the present leaving Laurinda and Dan's relationship hanging in the balance. Laurinda must trump construction economics and greed to preserve her commitment to her dream, uphold her friendship with alternative healing practitioner, Leyla Jo Piper, and answer to a new romance, all the while attempting to conserve North Carolina history. Will digging up the past, bury her future? Nardi Point explores the thread of life that blends past, current, and future to recognize the importance of knowing who we are in the story of life.
 
 
 

Nardi Point

 


My name is Nancy LaPonzina and I'd love to share with you a little about my debut women's fiction story, Nardi Point!

Nardi Point is a newly developed, upscale housing subdivision located in the Falls Lake area of Raleigh, North Carolina. Laurinda Elliot, a software product manager, and her partner Dan Riser, an uber developer code guru, share the successful couple story ... you know, late work nights, weekends often busy with work but filled with friends, maintaining special friendships, and living under deadlines.

But a Porsche sports car, new townhouse, designer clothing isn't enough. Laurinda wants Dan to want what she does. Something permanent with commitment. Dan, well not so much. When the ancient past collides with the present and delivers archaeological roadblocks at the couple's Nardi Point home-building site, their future could be buried as deeply as the artifacts discovered.
