This week we are joined by Kerri Maher. Kerri is the USA Today bestselling author of The Paris Bookseller, All You Have To Do Is Call, The Kennedy Debutante, and The Girl in White Gloves. She lives outside of Boston, Massachusetts with her daughter and dog, but was born and raised in California where Summer of Love, her latest novel, is set.
In this episode, Kerri shares how personal adversity—including hip dysplasia, sobriety, and cross-country moves—shaped her into a storyteller who explores identity, resilience, and change. She discusses her latest novel, Summer of Love, set against 1967 California's counterculture. Perfect for aspiring authors and anyone navigating the intersection of adversity and ambition, this episode proves your challenges can become your greatest source of inspiration.
