Kathleen Kolze - Author

Book Review - April 2012

From Jennifer Alexander, book reviewer on Mommy's Reading Too and Good Reads:

"This is the debut novel by Kathleen Kolze and I have to say I look forward to further work from this author. The story is entertaining and the character development is impressive, not only with Eva the main character, but with her friends and clients as well. I like that the story has the message that you can do what you want to do even if at first it seems that it is too late. I felt inspired by the end! I think anyone who enjoys well written women's fiction will enjoy this new book. Besides it has a bit of everything; romance, mystery, friendships, and fun!"

Synopsis for
What If You Made It Up?

To the outside world, Eva Karlsen is the epitome of success. But when hiding her misery from a probing life coach proved futile, she ditched her lucrative career and rebooted, making up a new life in the shadowy hillsides of Bear, Wyoming.

Opening herself up to relationships and community was not what Eva had in mind, but a gaggle of dramatic small-town residents -- along with the rugged and handsome men of Bear - pull her into an unexpected life of intrigue, including international capers and long-lost family legacies.

Now a life coach herself, Eva is determined to reinvent her way to loving and living the life of her dreams. She finds herself flourishing in a life she never would have expected for herself a few years earlier. All that was needed was to just make it up!
