Praise for Villa Paraiso

"Vivid, insightful, and original, Villa Paraiso peeks into a South Florida gated community, at one time reserved for the privileged few. As the characters are introduced in quick succession, we gain access to their hopes, regrets, and what makes them tick. As their strange and shady lives unravel, a murder mystery unfolds and you will find yourself turning the pages wondering not if, but when a character's past will catch up with them in 'paradise'."
—Alexandra Goodwin, author of Exchange at the Border

Lee B. Ravine’s Villa Paraiso is definitely not your garden-variety revelation, as it reveals the secrets and lies hidden inside a gated resort-lifestyle community on Florida’s Gold Coast.

Living in a gated community is akin to attending a potluck dinner: the choices look tempting, but you may be surprised by the ingredients bubbling beneath the surface. Villa Paraiso's liars, cheaters, dreamers and schemers provide a casserole to please every palette.

Is it possible this microcosm of society is a fool’s paradise where residents have yet to learn one of life’s greatest lessons—you can run—but you can’t hide from your past?

And the most important lesson of all—you can’t hide from yourself.
