Lori Nelson Spielman has published three standalone novels since 2013. Her debut, The Life List, follows a woman who inherits her mother’s estate on the condition that she complete a list of life goals she wrote as a teenager — goals that no longer match the life she has built. The book became an international bestseller and was translated into more than thirty languages.
Sweet Forgiveness (2015) and The Star-Crossed Sisters of Tuscany (2018) continued Spielman’s focus on women confronting the gap between the lives they planned and the lives they are living. Her novels are built on high-concept premises that create the conditions for emotional reckoning and personal growth.
